subbyboy5 Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 I use Cox Communications as my cable internet provider and a Motorola WR850G router. I have windows vista business, but I also encounter the problem on windows XP SP2. Whenever I run uTorrent, my computer will lose connectivity to the internet consistently every few minutes as long as uTorrent is open. This is a full connection loss, uTorrent, Trillian, Firefox... nothing can connect. As soon as I close uTorrent, everything is fine again. This is a pain, as I cannot effectively use the internet while I am torrenting, and it delays my downloads greatly while it spends all this time reconnecting to peers after being dropped. I have correctly forwarded my ports and get the green check mark in the status bar. I have limited my global connections to 200 and turned on uPnP, but nothing seems to help. Thanks for any suggestions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 Your ISP does not like you... well your filesharing habits.If you dislike the connects every minute then lower your max upload 10%, until the problem decreases frequency to ~ 10 minutes.You cannot get rid of this problem. It is one of the many automated ways your ISP throttles connections with high upload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
