I could not get a connection with the new wallet.
I swapped to the v1.0.1.0 version and now have 14 connections

The new wallet is on a different chain, yes they fucked up. The new wallet works though once you get it going.
What? How?
They said do not change anything, means datafolder should be same - so new chain does not make any sense
What amateurs is that if true?

?
