i-no Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Hello guys!I've experienced this shitty thing with hash fails when µT is downloading in the background while any CPU-intensive app is working in the foreground. It happens with all torrents I've tried so far including private ones. If I dedicate my rig exclusively to µT, everything is fine then.I'm running on WinXP SP2, NIC: Marvell Yukon 88E8053 GigE with new WHQL'd drivers and D-Link DSL-504T router with upgraded firmware on 256/128 ADSL connection. µT is set up according to actual bandwith, encryption allowed as well as legacy connections. My only guess for now is something related to hardware stability issues and I've tried a few tests including SuperPI, Prime95 and S&M w/o any problems for many hours. The one and only app reporting errors (hash fails) under heavy CPU load was µT. That's strange...Any tips on how to troubleshoot this nasty thing would be greatly appreciated!EDIT: Same symptoms with latest beta b460. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Hm, it does sound hardware related to me as well... might it be the NIC and/or the drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-no Posted May 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Maybe it is somehow related to gigabit NICs, but... I have tried to download huge ZIP and RAR archives via HTTP while putting heavy load on CPU+RAM and these archives came intact without CRC errors.Just don't know how to find what's causing hash fails in µT +( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Well, those are all sequential downloading... And low amounts of connections. It is really weird though, I've not had that happen even at max CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-no Posted June 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 Situation is a lot more interesting than I've thought:D-Link in router mode => hash fails, D-link in pure bridge mode or thru PPPoE relay in router mode => no hash fails even under heavy CPU load.Damn, it's a real P.I.A. because I absolutely don't like the idea of using D-Link in bridge mode but atleast it's not a fault of µT.

Firon Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 D-Links suck. You can't use DMZ on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-no Posted June 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 I'm not using DMZ, actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 o_O You're getting hashfails even without DMZ? Now that's a new one for a D-Link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-no Posted June 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 I'm using firmware mod by McMCC, it's quite nice and feature rich with many bugfixes to the orifinal firmware, but as I've recently found it somehow affects torrenting. Will try to figure this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
