Topic: Connections top out at 8 (Read 1303 times)
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. 
Yes it does. You are helping the network as other nodes can connect to your client and update their blockchains
Open/forward port 8333
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?
