user81137: I have an electrum wallet on a server
I use 'electrum getseed' and the 12 word seed is returned.
Then on a separate local machine I restore the wallet with the seed.
No funds available.
Any thoughts on what might be causing this.
Edit:
It looks like the local electrum wallet is not loading addresses that the server created outside the gap limit with --force. Any ideas on how to make local machine load these
Note: Wallet has under 2$. Could this be a 'too little btc issue'
Note: Tried seed on Exodus, says 'Invalid Key'

Increase the gap limit. Go to view menu > show console, switch to console tab and enter this command:
wallet.change_gap_limit(100)

Then wait for the balance to update in the bottom left corner. If that doesn't do it try a slightly larger number.
Also note that you have to be using a recent version of electrum. Old versions don't sync anymore so make sure you are using the latest version from electrum.org. A version that doesn't sync will not reflect an accurate view of your wallet.
