DHT make NAT table full with UDP

[taotoon]

I am on win2000 and Bitcomet 0.70. Modem router Zyxel 660H. NAT Table 1024 slots.

When I start BitComet without download any torrents, It sends ton of UDP to DHT nodes. If I disable DHT, it's normal.

KAD from eMule try to connect only 10 nodes per sec.

I don't know what you're problem is but DHT only uses UDP. Now, change your half-open TCP connections back to 8. You're not leaving any room for other programs includeing your web browser.

I don't know what you're problem is but DHT only uses UDP.

Yes, it sends UDP more than 1024 sessions within 180 sec. when starting BitComet 0.70

My friends never face the same problem.

I will try to uninstall and reinstall.

[taotoon]

1. Uninstall and delete everything in c:\program files\BitComet

2. Reinstall bitcomet 0.70

3. Open one torrent and start download...

4. Again it sent ton of UDP more than 1024 sessions within 180 sec.

:(

It sounds like you're going to have to just disable DHT. This is a problem with your router trying to keep these connections logged. Can you changed the router's settings for that?

[taotoon]

Yes, I enable DHT.

To temporaly solve the problem, I set UDP timeout to 30 sec.

But my freinds never face the problem and they set to 180 sec.

Maybe the windows XP lock max total connection of UDP ?

I am using win2000 SP4.

[Dark_Shroud]

No, Windows does not limit UDP in anyway. Nor do they limit max connections. Do your friends have the same router as you? Check to see if the router has any firmware updates.
