When using torrent client to download files Wi-Fi gets limited access.

So, I have a problem. When I download larger files my Wi-Fi connection gets limited access. Only disconnecting and connecting again fixes it. I don't know why or when this actually started to occur. But it is really anoying, can't finish downloads when leaving PC overnight to download files. Wired connection works without any problem, but I can't use it because I don't have enough of cable to connect my PC to modem. Downloading from steam or any other program works perfectly without any problems. I would be really thankful for your help.

I am seeing this issue as well, except mine drops and reconnects. Not just on large files but any torrent. I am "assuming" that this has something to do with my ISP. 

Usually small files can download before getting this error. I don't think this is ISP problem, atleast in my case. Because my friend is using same ISP as mine and same plan, but he never got this error.

Router problem is likely, although if the problem is limited to wireless, it may be a problem with the specific wireless adapter.

I thought so too. I just can't get other Wi-Fi adapter right now to test it out.

You mentioned it works fine on steam have you tried both steam and utorrent running at the same time and what happens when you do that? Sounds like a router issue is being overloaded with your torrent settings? Was it always like this before?
