Fraye Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I don't know if this is my router, BitComet, the torrents, or my ISP who is deciding to be a prick. Two days ago they suspended my high speed router saying it was because of some DHCP Flooding Issue. They also said my router is under recall. I ahve had it for over one year. (Hawking HWR54G). I don't know if it is under recall, but I don't know. Anyways, I called back my ISP, and I said I fixed it. I didn't change one thing, and it was fine for about a day and a half. As soon as I start some torrents, I finish a download of a private tracker where I get stuff at a constand 700kb/s+. When I get to my second download from the same place, it cuts. My high-speed modem is suspended again. I have another router here, and switched them. Its a D-Link DI-604. It's been about an hour, but do you know how I can prevent this in the future? My ISP is Rogers, and I have a high-speed extreme connection. I live in Canada, and from what I know noone else I know is having this problem. Any help is appreciated and I can provide all of the information needed. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Shroud Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Your ISP (Rogers) is notorious for throttling. It used to kill it down to 0% upload. But I guess then had enough complaints (BitTorrent is legal and used by legal companies) and cancellations because of it to change. For starters you have to set peer encryption to always. Also check the tracker status and make sure you’re at least able to connect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraye Posted August 22, 2006 Author Share Posted August 22, 2006 It always connects thats not a problem, its just they disable my modem like half way through or something. I have never ahd this problem before. Rogers sucks balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soraiya Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 >< Unfortunately, no P2P application has the power to eliminate this issue. Our client's encryption option is only a minor add-on. The best thing is to change ISPs asap. It's not worth it if you're paying like over $80 for a high bandwidth connection + lots of quota, if you can't even make full use of it.

I only pay like $40 a month, and have had it for over a year, and this isn't the worst downloading I've been doing. I once cued like 47 torrents and went on vacation lmfao. I am suprised rogers is just catching on :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiskyjon Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 I have Road-Runner and they are always having problems with their DHCP server. Remember guys these kinds of servers are the traffic cops of the internet. It seems like evry year I have to call them over to run a scope on the whole online connection and it always comes back to this server. These servers have all the IP's, or, are suppost to have them all. You can request to have these IP's added, but that does not mean it will be done. Good luck guys.
