If you do not know how to get to your datafolder, please take a look at the wallet setup tutorial made by MR1 here:
viewtopic.php?f=16&t=54
open the website:
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xst/#!network
click on the "nodes"-button BEHIND /Junaeth:2.1.0.1/. A window should popup (if not, please ensure you don't block javascript on this site).

Copy and paste the whole list into your \StealthCoin\StealthCoin.conf file
and restart your QT/daemon.
Your connection count should have slightly increased now.
Thanks for reading.
Have a nice day and good stake!
