Certainly not looking to sync the daemon fully as it's just too much data for my purposes:

So, am using a remote node as:
[wallet 42mEMY (no daemon)]:
[wallet 42mEMY (no daemon)]: refresh
Error: wallet failed to connect to daemon: node.xmr.to:18081. Daemon either is not started or wrong port was passed. Please make sure daemon is running or change the daemon address using the 'set_daemon' command.
[wallet 42mEMY (no daemon)]:
[wallet 42mEMY (no daemon)]: status
Refreshed 2688832/?, no daemon connected
[wallet 42mEMY (no daemon)]:
and while it's about 80% sync'ed it's just not completing. I've tried a few remote nodes without any further progress.
What are my options to fully sync the wallet?
after rebooting, and trying a different remote node:

and while it's starting a background refresh, but still not explicitly updating:
[wallet 42mEMY (out of sync)]:
[wallet 42mEMY (out of sync)]: refresh
Starting refresh...

Is this just how it goes with remote nodes?
