jbeaman Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 After i run utorrent for a while (anywhere from an hour to 10 hours) a few websites stop working. for example, today wikipedia wouldn't work. but google worked fine. i couldn't ' browse to yahoo but could ping it. the torrents are uploading and downloading fine. then after another hour the torrents are uploading and downloading at 10-15 percent of what they should and i can't use the web for anything but can ping major sites. a restart fixes the problemimportant info:Vista Ultimatebelkin N1 routerlinksys N pci carddht turned offglobal max connections 300connected peers per torrent 50upload slots per torrent 3my max upload is capped at an appropriate level.let me know if you need more info.thanksJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 Dang I missed the important info: belkin N1 routerTry reducing Global and per-torrent connections to 50 or less.Belkin routers just can't take it.Were there some 3rd party hack to modify the router's settings, you might be able to reduce their long timeout values for connections...which I've heard is the main cause of their overloads.
