Hi all. I have news that is my own experience. From early days of bits I have been running all of my wallets with internet connection that is behind Internet Provider NAT. Under these connections, usually 3G and 4G mobile connections you dont get direct connections by opening modems NAT rouling from its configuration page ie. 192.168.1.1 or something else.

Well over month ago I got normal ADSL connection with public ip and now I am able to open NAT ports to all my wallets and now I am having more connections to network than ever. For Bitstar now 9 connections and its usually over 12 to 14 connections. Before this change I had 3 connections. By opening Nat you can also download blockchain faster.

I hope this helps.

Personaly i have never had any problems getting connections to the network i have 15 atm. My problem is that the download of the blockchain is not consistens, it will download a few hours then hang for a while then start again, this has been a problem from the early days of the BITS wallet for me anyways. Any other wallet like BTC and LTC is downloading the blockchain consistens with no hangup so i dont know why why i have so many problems BITS wallet. And so far my wallet have been re downloading the blockchain for 4 days now been running 24/7 and stil needs to download about a year of blocks, i wish the fast start pack worked Sad

Alsow i have noticed http://bitstarcoin.com/ have been down for days now and if you go to https://www.blockexperts.com/bits# you can see the last block is 1670717 witch is 3days ago now, what is happening with BITS is it getting abandoned or are things being looked into? some updated info would be nice on whats going on.

I have managed to run the wallet again and I only get 2-3 peers.
Would you like to do a getpeerinfo on your wallet and tell us which peers you have connections with?
You go to your wallet, Help, debug window, console and type getpeerinfo and hit enter.
Mine shows the following

This is how mine looks after about 5mins after i have opend the wallet, but the longer its open the more connections it will get.
