Guys,

I have two WRT54GL routers running tomato.

I have them in WDS mode to extend the wireless network.

I have 7 machine connected through a 10mb Virgin Broadband connection

Router 1, connected to Virgin Modem (192.168.1.1)
My Laptop1 192.168.1.11
Server 192.168.1.12
Mac Mini 192.168.1.13
Work Laptop 192.168.1.14
PS3 192.168.1.15

Router 2, connected WDS to router 1 (192.168.1.2)
Parents Laptop 192.168.1.21
Parents PS3 192.168.1.22

The server is used as a torrent downloader. So when this is downloading at full speed the internet slows to a halt on any other machine.

I would like to know how to setup the tomato settings in order for it to download at full pelt, only when there is no other machine wanting data from the internet.

I have tried playing around with the settings but i dont really know what im doing.

Can anyone assist?
 
I don't think you can actually do that with it, that would be on a much more expensive router afaik.

You can try putting on QoS though, to allow priority of HTTP/Port 80 traffic.
