I have two copies of BitCoin running on two computers behind the same router with both systems pointing to the same 8333 port.  Only one computer gets more than 8 connections, but why cant both systems use the same 8333 port, my router allowed the assignment for each system? 

P.S. If anyone wants to generate a transaction or two they can send to  1C4eBje7vpxuE2deewfiNj8zgoiF4jpV4C    I will send it back at you, send your address.  Have fun!
