Network Problems??

[masoftheund]

I've been having my network go down when using uTorrent. I know most people are going to point me in the setup-guide direction but believe me, I've been there, done that...ALL that.

The fact is, it only happens on a few torrents, not all. I'm beginning to wonder if there is a possibility that some of the trackers cause this problem. It causes the connection between my server and the router to go down; this would mean the router has reached it's maximum capacity for connections. Ironically, it does this sometimes even before any seeds/peers are connected.

Does anyone have any experience with a problem like this? Please help me out. The torrent I'm having problems with today is:

If you haven't already turned off DHT LPD and other options under Ctrl-P -> BitTorrent to see if those are what is crashing your router, that's where you need to go next (yes it's in Ultima's extensive How-To) because unfortunately modern consumer grade hardware generally... blows. My 6 year old D-Link is a testament to that. You couldn't run linux on it, you can't set it up for bridge mode, or even use wi-fi but the bugger handles up to 500 connections (which is overkill for even my 6 Mbit line) without crashing.

So, assuming it's my router (CISCO 1700), and i think it is, which router would you guys recommend?
