Admiral Lanno Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 Whenever I run 1.6.1 on my new vista-equipped laptop, my internet basically freezes. I get disconnected from the internet, essentially. None of my firefox pages load, nothing happens, though my toolbar says I'm still connected to the internet. Even if I close uTorrent, the problem persists and doesnt go away until I restart my computer. When I run 1.7, the problem happens too, but it goes away when I close uTorrent. I didn't have the problem yesterday and managed to download things at a reasonable speed, but then today when I went to school and used the network there, it started, and is still happening at home.

Ryan Norton Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 It is possible there are too many halfopen connections going - what vista edition are you using? Also, try setting it to 1 in your advanced settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Lanno Posted May 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 I started uTorrent and uTorrent was able to download and upload at a reasonable rate but it still froze all of my other internet. I set halfopen connections to 1 and still couldn't restore internet until I put the computer to sleep. I'm running Vista Home Premiumedit: Now that I started up uTorrent with just 1 halfopen connection, it seems to be working. My internet seems a little more sluggish than usual but that could just be my network. I am downloading at a reasonable rate, though. If I increase the number of halfopen connections but don't reach whatever the limit is, will that increase my download speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daskalou Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 I've got Windows Vista Ultimate installed and I'm having EXACTLY the same problem.When I run uTorrent it appears as though nothing else can access anything external, and also it takes utorrent quite a while to actually start download or uploading from/to peers.I've got uTorrent beta build 1825 (haven't installed 1875 yet...).UPDATE: I just installed the latest 1.7 Beta release (build 1952) and it seems to be working fine.
