Evening,

I have just been upgraded (8mb virgin media line + unlimited DLs + router for £8 a month), and Virgin sent me a Netgear DG834T router. I've got it all plugged in and set up, but every so often (usually when I torrent), it will drop the connection, and not work until I close uTorrent again.

I think it might be something to do with uPNP coming on, as it changes settings that usually require a reboot (port forwarding etc), but I've disabled uPNP before and tried manually forwarding the ports myself but to no avail.

Any ideas?

Cheers!

Wireless uses shared bandwidth. utorrent will use as much of it as it can and flood the network.
You need to use a cable really when on a heavy download session

I seem to have fixed it.

I changed the channel (from 10 to 5), and changed the SSID from Dad-This-Is-Wireless (dad = dumb lol) to 199 (for obv reasons. )

All fixed!

Thanks anyway Sas!

Must have been a channel conflict killing the transmitter power
