So my idea that by PoBing at home one automatically provides a listening node to the net is completely wrong, right?
Not a listening node unless configured with listen=1 and UPNP-connected via the standard port.

I believe listen=1 is assumed when the parameter is missing from the .conf file.
At least it was this way with all the wallets I used (and with slimcoind v5 too I get inbound connections in complete absence of any listen= setting).

Not trying to be a smartass (well maybe a little bit  Cheesy)

Otherwise my node is still synching, I remember it takes quite some time but I hoped to get more than 300k blocks in 24 hours.

You are not using Grahams snapshot, are you?

No, I am trying to synch from scratch again. While I understand loading the snapshot would make stabilize the network much faster, I want to see my node synched the traditional way. I tried with snapshot on a (much) earlier occasion and ended up synching from the network so I thought I'd go that way again.

I usually need a couple of weeks to synchronize from scratch.
