For everyone having problems checking if their node is working on the bitcoin network you can use the tool on this page.

https://bitnodes.io/

How do you perform a search for your node on this site?

Put the public IP of your router in the search box and click "Check Node"

I did that and all i get is that my NODE unreachable.  However, when I view my NODE on the Apollo, it shows me 31-32 others nodes connected to me.  From here I am not really sure how to solve the issue.  Port 8333 is open on my router.  When I check my IP and PORT with https://portchecker.co/, it states that my port is open.  How can I not be reachable?

edit:  I have checked several IPs that my NODE dashboard shows connected to my NODE.  I have a couple Apollo BTC connected to my node and when I check theirs IP it come back as unreachable.  When I check other IPs even with different port numbers from 8333, they are reachable.  Must be a Apollo BTC Problem.

Did you input your public IP into bitnodes.io? That was the only way it confirmed mine.

I found out the problem.  It was being blocked by MYSTERIUM NODE. 

Awesome! Connections are up now?

Yes, holding average of 31 connection.  You wouldn't happen to k ow how to find the RPC Credentials would you?
