Title: Only 8 connections on bitcoind Post by: alexeft on March 19, 2013, 11:18:02 AM Hi people,
I have a pc on a static ip, linux x64 installed, ports are open, bitcoind is 0.8.1 I still only get 8 connections. Any help? Thanks. Title: Re: Only 8 connections on bitcoind Post by: stevegee58 on March 19, 2013, 11:21:45 AM Having more connections isn't better. The default limit is 8.

I thought that it's only a limit if one is using upnp, which I am not (or at least should not) Title: Re: Only 8 connections on bitcoind Post by: RaTTuS on March 19, 2013, 11:30:54 AM make sure you have your router allowing extra conenctions though

or nobody wants to connect to you (wait a few hours) Title: Re: Only 8 connections on bitcoind Post by: stevegee58 on March 19, 2013, 02:22:15 PM You don't need more than 8 connections anyway. There is no benefit from having more connections.
