Well its running. If you click on "peers" in the same window you can see to how many peers you are connected to and details about the connection. If you opened the ports properly there should be more than 8 connections. You can also check this under the "Information" tab.

Im not really here, its just your imagination.

Green = good. They offer more info about your node via (change IP accordingly): https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/nodes/213.165.91.169-8333@shorena I'am getting 28 Peers on the peers tab , also there is 28 Connections to Bitcoin Network and sometimes 29 .

Well done. Node is reachable from the outside. If you have a static IP all you need to do now is keep the machine powered and online.

Does the network data window still show traffic to/from your bitcoin node? Did your ISP change your IP address overnight? (This can happen if you have small disconnects). Do you have any data transfer caps with your ISP?

Close & re open the wallet and all should be fine and running again ? ~ Madness

Well that won't work , it's the same IP . Since WhatisMyIP reads my IP adress , and the Bitnode website do the same thing (read my IP) and it's me who have to write it down . so both IP's match What else I could do please ? ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) ~ Madness

[...] What else I could do please ? ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) ~ Madness Check your settings regarding the port in the router, firewall etc. again. I had a router before that would "forget" settings when there was a power cycle. Another option could be your ISP started blocking it? You'd have to ask them.

My ISP don't care about anything and don't block anything to be honest . they simply don't give a single shit . (that's why I love my country) I checked again and I'am getting it green again .. I guess it was unstable or something when my modem turned off for sometime and turned on once again .. so it took time Thanks for all your help ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) works fine now . ~ Madness

He means your upload capacity. There have been cases in the past where Bitcoin Core used all of the upload capacity of the users' Internet connection. To the point of making browsing etc. impossible.
Netlimiter is a software for Windows that allows you to limit programs to certain speeds.

Not so with me at 768kbps. Netlimiter is cool to have, anyway. So much better than using QoS on router ..
