Switeck Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 I use that same router and it works ok so long as I don't allow more than 80-100 global/per-torrent connections. I flashed its bios/firmware to the last official build for it...which was about 2002 or 2003. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 No clue on the modem...I'm on cable and don't know if my cable modem 'box' is any good, due to limitations of my router and Win 98SE OS.I just manually port forwarded my router. I only forward TCP, because I don't use DHT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
