Download connection to http://peerates.net/servers.php was lost. How to get more connections?

[ghost]

With the default settings and DC++ connection I've only got 2 G2 hubs, 3 G1 peers, and 1 DC++ hubs after 30 minutes. Only 6 neighbors in total. Is this normal? How do I get more connections? Specially on eDonkey where it hasn't achieved a single connection. And clicking on Update eDonkey server list from the web. (.MET file) gives a Download connection to http://peerates.net/servers.php was lost error. Does anyone know a way of editing this .MET file manually?
