Is it forwarding that port to the right(your) IP? If you haven't set a static IP it changes everytime you reboot your computer

Interesting...just checked up on my forwarded ports and I've had 8333 open this whole time. Huh

Yes it does. You are helping the network as other nodes can connect to your client and update their blockchains
Open/forward port 8333

Do I need to forward specific ports other than 8332 in order to get > 8 connections on the bitcoin client? Also, does having more than 8 connections really matter?
