Re: Limited Bandwidth/no blocking or Unlimited Bandwidth/blockin
I'd bet he did use DD-WRT, notice the 54G'L' model.
But aside from that, I had a router behind the switch all last year and had no problems. Didn't mess with anything.
Also, uiuc, uses packet shaping to slow down your torrents and other common p2p protocols. Fortunately it doesn't mess with dc++ and encryption also solves this problem.

| I have no particular use to use a router, just as long as I can use a switch (and not a hub) to connect my computers, alls good. Traffic shapping? Well not much you can download torrent wise with only 750 up/down (which means you can only download a 375 meg file if you want to 1:1 it and not get banned from the tracker). Encryption works though for traffic shapping? Good to know.

| figure out how slow you need to limit your download to and set that up so you dont go over the 750. Also you gan easily get away with about 3 different mac adresses per day
