Satoshi to Nicholas Bohm: forward port 8333 (June 5, 2009)

You should set your router to forward port 8333 so you can receive incoming connections. If you’re not set up to receive incoming connections and nobody else who’s online is, then you can’t connect. It would also help solve the “(not accepted)” issues.

I’ve achieved a connection to bitcoin through my new router, so whatever I did must have been right. Please disregard my last message.
