Do you have gigabit networking, an ADSL modem/router, and use Bittorrent?!

[DanB]

My Netgear DG834G cannot handle being connected to a gigabit network when I'm using Utorrent or Azureus. It always ends up falling over and locking the connection. This has been the same with both a PCI gigabit network card, and my newer onboard Marvell and Nvidia gigabit networking on an Nforce4 board.

I just wanted to know if anyone has a successful experience with torrenting over an adsl connection with a gigabit network. If at all possible, I'd like it to be a wireless adsl modem/router.

Cheers,

Dan

What can I say, I have a DG834G v2 and have tried reducing the connections and various other settings in the Torrent client, but eventually, it always kills the router. I've tried three different gigabit connections - a Netgear PCI card, and the Nvidia and Marvell onboard ports. All gave the same results.

I have used my DG834G (v2) and a Netgear Gigabit NIC for over a year now - connecting at 100mbit and no line drops on my LAN.

Do you mean 1000mbit ?

I've had the connections turned down to something ridiculous like 20, and it still crashed. I've also disabled logging in the router, and that made no difference.

Basically, I've put a PCI 10/100 card in and that works just fine, but it kills my large file transfers around the LAN
