I only have 3 active connections to the network. How can I increase the number of connections, and what will be the benefit of having more connections ? I am not mining, I just setup a basic configuration file containing only :
rpcuser=zcashrpc
rpcpassword=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

My guess is I have to add some nodes addresses in that file, but I'm not sure of this, and how to do it properly. Any advice is welcome.

addnode=zdash.suprnova.cc
addnode=183.89.226.141
addnode=163.172.70.26
addnode=76.188.211.191
addnode=173.212.196.148
addnode=78.94.32.197
addnode=77.78.12.89
addnode=78.46.88.113
addnode=163.172.70.26
addnode=192.99.3.29
addnode=144.76.62.229
addnode=163.172.64.208
addnode=37.187.167.145
addnode=[2607:5300:60:341d::1]
addnode=[2001:41d0:d:691::]
addnode=[2a02:c207:2008:8708::1]
addnode=[2001:470:1f09:3b6:7285:c2ff:fe0e:1664]
addnode=[2a02:908:162:67dc:225:90ff:fe50:2b9b]

just copy & paste Roll Eyes

Thanks Sonic, I added these in the zdash.conf file. Instead of 3 connections, there are now 4 or 5 active connections on average. This is not a lot.
It looks like most of those nodes above are either offline or unreachable at this time.
