I remember reading something about this a while ago (for a different altcoin), and it said you need at least 2 nodes configured to communicate with each other. Maybe that helps? It may differ depending on which altcoin codebase you start with though.

you may want to disable dns seeds

use `connect=<ip_of_other_node>`

instead `addnode=<ip_of_other_node>` in you `coin.conf` file.
