If you are behind a router using NAT or a firewall that prevents incoming connections, you will be limited to eight peer connections. If you are directly connected to the Internet (your computer has a real IP address) or properly set up port forwarding in your network, you will probably have forty or more.
Bitcoin finds peers for itself, and then the peers find you.

Hi,
What is the usual number of peers the client is connected to ?
And how to find out the more stable peers in the network ?
Thanks in advance
