This sounds like a network connectivity issue. Do you have problems with any other apps that use the internet or just OB?

We do see this one sometimes as I think the node isn't fully bootstrapped on startup for some reason. Though it doesn't really affect anything. The attempted data push is really just for redundancy.

This can happen if the peer has not been online for > one week and his data has dropped out of the DHT. Unfortunately the mapping between peers does not persist forever and we're currently exploring ways to improve this that doesn't open us up to a DoS.
