I am currently staking 10k+ but have no connection to the network. Should I just wait it out or is there something I can do about this myself?
You can update your Qibuck.conf file and add the nodes to it. Make these the last lines in the file. For a windows file it would be in your Users//AppData/Roaming directory.
addnode=104.131.194.96
addnode=72.190.133.196
addnode=24.67.160.17
addnode=64.246.148.233
I currently have 2 connections, maybe you'll be able to put us over the top. And Thanks to whomever brought there wallet on yesterday, we got 1 block further.
Let me know if this doesn't make sense.
Thanks to everyone that tried to open their wallets. At one point we had 9 connections. I've noticed several of the connects are very slow in updating their local block chains, or not updating at all. This could be due to a slow connection or corrupted local block chain data.
I created a zip file with the block chain up to block 800947 which is the current block. The link is

If you want to try using this file, first stop the wallet if you currently have it running.
back up your Qibuck folder in the apps/roaming folder. Also make several backup's of the wallet.dat file (can never be too careful). You can even just rename that folder then copy wallet.dat and Qibuck.conf into a new Qibuck folder.
Delete everything except your wallet.dat and Qibuck.conf files.
Extract (unzip) the blockchain file into the Qibuck folder.
If everything is correct you should see a txleveldb folder and blk0001,dat file, along with your previously saved Qibuck.conf and wallet.dat files.
start your Qibuck wallet. After a few minutes it should connect to the network and check to see if there are newer blocks.
If you try this and have any problems let me know.
