We cranked up our snapshot peering this week, let me know if you still have issues.

We have added one more machine with additional 500 peer handling capacity, though I am not sure if that will help, as the issue may be discovery related. Still digging...

right op-geth is just a fork of geth, so it defaults to 30303 for p2p. You can override it to whatever port you prefer with the --port flag however.

Can you try opening inbound connections to port 30303 and specifying the HOST_IP appropriately?

Can you confirm you can "telnet 30303" (or whatever port you're using) to the node from an outside machine? I am having trouble replicating so wondering if your port is...

Would you mind sharing your enode id? (Feel free to e-mail...) I can see if I can peer my node with it and see if that gets it syncing.
