Finally got my ETH node working. I had to pay a service to get my consensus node synced up to date quickly because the free ones always time out or cut you off too fast. Nimbus didn't make clear that if you are behind a NAT that you HAVE to add a command line parameter with the external IP or it will go out of sync. And the execution node (Nethermind) would NOT sync until the consensus node was synced.

I think anyway! It didn't work for several hours until the consensus node synced, then the execution node started syncing immediately.

Pain in the ass.
