Re: Comcast disconnects for using P2P

said by Quaoar:

How do you open " too many connections on your router "?

Frankly, I believe you are FOS, blaming Comcast for your own inadequacies in setting up your P2P service.

Q
Simple, the mass amount of traffic that bittorent uses uses up either the routers cpu or memory... Causes it to lag out or reset, it can be avoided by lowering the max number of connections/storms in bittorent.

I agree, I would also suggest he takes a look a windows. Windows xp sp2 introduced a 10 half open connections limit. This can some times be the issue especially if the client is set up wrong.

It can be can sometimes be related to how many people are on the torrent, and if its using the public dht network, they can flood you off the swarm if you have weak equipment.
