If you're having issues with your client staying in sync, it's due to the addnode 96.248.111.100 in the configuration file that hasn't updated to v7.1.8 This is one of the default addnodes that comes packaged in the client's config file. If you'll remove this addnode from the config file and restart your client, the client should stay in sync.
If this node fails to update before the next update, we'll be sure to remove it from the default list.
