Lots of talk of 1.6 freezing. Is anything being done to fix?

[mrackley]

I have downloaded 1.6 onto my XP Media Center PC and have tried all the suggestions to stop it from freezing. IT STILL FREEZES. I did not have this problem with 1.5

I disabled uPnP

I disabled DHT

I set my max_halfopen to 2

I have dell XPS 400 if that helps with any additional troubleshooting.

This looks like a great product, but 1.6 is basically worthless if my computer hard freezes every couple of hours.

What Speed Guide (CTRL+G) settings are you using?

Maybe they're set too high?

[mrackley]

Upload Limit: 50 kB/s

Upload Slots: 8

Connections(per-torrent): 100

Connections(global): 750

Max active torrents: 9

Max active downloads: 8

What should these be set to? I have DSL 1.5mbit and a NetGear Wireless ( Router

Thanks for the help!

Something else I've noticed. On the very rare occasions that my computer does not lock-up, I will suddenly lose the network connection on the computer although the other computers in my house are connected fine. The only way i can get it to detect my network again is to reboot my computer. Again.. I've never seen this before using 1.6

This is fun...

I adjusted my global connections to 200 after reading through the faq. So far, so good. However, my download spead is only 35 kb/s when it was 135 kb/s

Will keep reading through the faq for more clues.

Thanks for the assistance.

I have DSL 1.5mbit

your DSL is very likely asymethrical in speed. so i guess thats NOT your UP(!)loadspeed.

In that case your settings are way to high!

please use CTRL+G and see what the guide is sugesting for max active torrents for example
