| 435153 | 2006-03-03 00:50:00 | Hi. last night i was running abuot 8 torrents on my 2mbit/2mbit connection and i notice from the logs on my smoothwall firewall that my connection died abuot 6am. so after a bit of tinkerign and no connection (this is abuot midday) i reboot smoothwall and the connection works fine, for abuot 30 seconds, (torrents start then die). i do this a few times and then i decided to quit my torrent client. And sofar my internet is workign flawlessly. This is annoying because i enjoy using torrents. while poking around in the logs ect i noticed that its only usign 20MB of its like 98MB of ram. Usually its using abuot 90-97% of it, and thats without torrents. infact even just after i installed smoothwall it used abuot 45%. whats up with my funky torrent problems? [edit] just thought i should mention that im using smoothwall express 2.0 with all 8 patches. My torrent client is Azureus (latest version) |

| 435155 | 2006-03-03 01:19:00 | yep, its been working fine for teh past 2 days. | Mirddes (10) | ||
| 435156 | 2006-03-03 01:42:00 | my connection died again and i wasnt downloading anything. | Mirddes (10) | ||
| 435157 | 2006-03-03 08:59:00 | odd, now it seems as though my connection dies abuot 30 seconds after i start using bittorrent. im thinking poor smoothwall cant handle all teh traffic on such modest hardware or my isp is doign something, which woudl be odd since they havent for the past 4 years. | Mirddes (10) | ||
| 435158 | 2006-03-05 19:26:00 | I had problems with a D-Link ADSL router when downloading torrents. It would lock up at random times but only while downloading torrents so swapped it for a new model and it's all good now. What are the specs of the machine your Smoothwall is running on? |
