hey,

so sipa/gmaxwell proposed on irc that maybe upnp is not working anymore but there isnt any way to test.

well i made an alternate chain, and ran the daemon on my vps.

sometimes it accepts connections, sometimes not. It's all very patchy.

anyway just putting this out there

I believe the issue isn't lack of working, but lack of re announcing to the router that the port needs to remain open.
