Hi @thestuckster  
I request you to go through other threads describing a similar issue. Here are two:

1. [Peer does not respond with a "piece" message to a valid "request" message? (always the same block)](https://forum.codecrafters.io/t/peer-does-not-respond-with-a-piece-message-to-a-valid-request-message-always-the-same-block/1090)
2. [Download a piece #nd2](https://forum.codecrafters.io/t/download-a-piece-nd2/1913)

Let me know if any of these help 🙂
