    We're aware that base mainnet has peering issues for newly started nodes and are actively working on a fix to address that. For nodes that are struggling to find peers, we recommend adding below cli args to your reth node and restart for now. ``` --trusted-peers enode://674db972a48b9cab934407c9e28c50fb3c95719272d314dd408ef82804796e06e5de6f991db4e9f33b2b0f09f1ddf3d91f59cd6b3f4b183052efc3d88455d5ac@13.221.49.63:30303?discport=30304,enode://174bcf56adbfbd8eb6fa1e680c356a495d4a4dd638ede1187846f748bf85a9a7396feb64bcd8e725509efdf85362928b71ac50ad59fd73f44aad7103c56e94ac@54.161.193.150:30303?discport=30304,enode://0d5988e13d93d7b96f89767d64445d0b03ca1ad1d7e17a19c60e0997a3bb27217d8f0fca3353abb051bf2b10b10be73d4c2250a15cc1f9e3d8dd5b770fadaf38@54.209.136.129:30303?discport=30304,enode://843e9e53a61bee5bf6f7c2739455ed61ef1056172812123a3f7d6f3f10d12f7c0dc8d7a4bda966ddd4a1d1b61d58bff5558f924b3f0ca84e9e8c0e6feb277142@98.80.147.106:30303?discport=30304,enode://3f4dba3d8b19727f942c0dd63b9d5a2c87aa5cf175bd6a86b78d7913950333382f3befc09f7c0e6af36451091f5d031b2d6db2996480b5c261812ddd76708524@3.81.131.168:30303?discport=30304,enode://3081267a138669585724beec40a422f5f2c8e7f050c5845936420e679c48b43e413106c220b6aa8cd9636042962f2b2ab02e3701f6d8d9233075061cafcfe3b6@34.203.10.78:30303?discport=30304 ```
