Re: [Speed] workaround for Comcast Throttling issues.. (torrent)
notajive, that would be because 'iptables' is Linux-based ( Netfilter ). More specifically, 'iptables' is the tool to manipulate Netfilter tables, chains and rules.
You'll want to read up on 'ipfw', which is the BSD-based firewall which is included in Mac OS X.
You can do the same lunacy as above, drop all TCP RSTs for dest port 6113.
Take care. |

| Of course, since the resets are sent in both directions from the middle of the conversation anything you do on your end is purely wasted effort. This suggestion will only work if everyone running BT implements this filter (highly unlikely).
It might appear this works because, according to Comcast, the upstream connection interruptions change in intensity based on how busy the network is.
