thabluebull Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 I installed the recommended dd-wrt v23 firmware on my linksys wrt-54g v2 router and I still have SLOW speed problems. I followed the recommended :Maximum Ports: 4096 TCP Timeout (s): 300 (decrease if you have many TCP connections) UDP Timeout (s): 300 (decrease if you have many UDP connections) Save Settings and then Reboot Router I still get from .1 kb/s 5.5 kb/s with 41(108) seeds and 1 (917) peers. Same speeds as before I upgraded.I'm on at&t (formerly bellsouth) DSL. It's not on the list of ISP's that limit torrent speeds.Speed tests show dl speeds at 3000 kb/sI also have a static ip and the green check mark showing my ports are properly forwarded.I don't understand what's going on. Any help would be appreciated. I used to get 80 kb/s on my speedstream router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hermanm Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 What's your serial number?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WRT54G#WRT54GOn routers with less flash RAM, I've seen recommendations of 1024 max ports, tcp & udp timeout at 120.You can also see if your RAM is full or you have exceeded your max connections under the "Status" tab for your router:http://www.informatione.gmxhome.de/DDWRT/Standard/V24BetaVPN/Status_Router.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabluebull Posted March 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Does anyone have v24 of this firmware? How stable is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Eh... I ran v24 once, router kept auto-rebooting as it couldn't handle the load from µT, in the end I downgraded. It was disappointing as I wanted to use the multiple SSID feature to create a more secure connection for my computer while keeping the familys Nintendo DS's on a weaker one since the pos doesn't support anything higher then WEP. That was some time ago though so it may have been fixed. Make sure the timeouts are ~120 and keep the global number of connections down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
