title: Local Node (Geth) failed to sync from TestNet
body: <p>Dear all Blockchain experts,</p>
  
  <p>I have created a local node by using Geth, this is the startup command.</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>geth --testnet  --rpc --rpcaddr "localhost" --rpcport "8545" --rpcapi "web3,eth,net,personal" --rpccorsdomain "*" --datadir "./data" --identity "localnode"  --fast</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Upon the local node up and running. Immediately, I created two personal accounts and stored it into the Keystore folder. </p>
  
  <p>Then, I have transfered the ether from my Testnet's account to the local node's account via MetaMasks. Something really odd here is I still can see the local node's account ether value is ZERO.</p>
  
  <p>I even deleted the chaindata folder and re-started the geth client console.</p>
  
  <p>Please advise and much appreciate.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
