I've had acquisition since the early, early days of its existence. Over that time I've lived in three different locations, had two or three different computers, been behind two or three different routers & firewalls and I've never had a problem having to do with the network. Acquisition is steady as a rock and updates itself routinely with fresh core component updates. While not entirely visible, the backend of this software must truly be very well written. Furthermore, the GUI is truly pioneering and has inspired a few look-alikes (see acqlite).
If you look at the majority of the negative comments about Acquisition, you'll realize that most people are only complaining about the developer's attitude, and not focusing on the software itself.

I have emailed the developer about the bug several times, but have not gotten a response.
