huscarl91 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 The details:HP G72 laptop, Pentium Dual Core T4500, running 64-bit Windows 7 Home PremiumRealtek RTL8191SE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter, driver version 2021.0.203.2012Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family Display Adapter (not sure why this might be relevant, but here ya go)3GB RAM, 50+GB free on disk.No firewall software installed, Windows Firewall disabledFreshly updated AVG Free reports system cleanFreshly updated SpyBot S&D reports system cleanAbout 50% of the time when I open uTorrent and start a file transfer, within a minute of starting, my wireless connection between the laptop and my Netgear WNDR3400v2 router dies, necessitating a full reboot of the laptop to re-establish the connection. My spare laptop retains connectivity, which clearly indicates no trouble with the router. Perhaps it's s problem with the torrents themselves? Is there some setting that may be causing this? Or is there something I'm not considering?Thanks in advance for any advice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Change your DNS servers to Google's or openDNS public servers so you don't overload your routers cache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amachu Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Hi everyoneMy problem seems the same as this, but I tried changing my DNS to Google's and it hasn't solved anything. What could I try?Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Did you change them in uTorrent or only in your TCP/IP configuration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amachu Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 I've changed both of them, although I think my DNS server appears to have no access to the IPv6 Internet (I've been finding out about this, I don't have too much idea), so I wasn't able to change that one.Still not working Thanks for your advice!

klebold Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Same here, except I don't have wireless. Even if only one torrent is active, it kills my entire connection and doesn't download. It uploads though. Internet immediately restores itself upon closing uTorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
