2 edits | My WRT610N works perfectly - except for the small issue of BitTorrent. I have a 1.5 Mbps / 896 Kbps pipe from my ISP, Qwest. That connection provides a throughput of about 160KB / 100KB. For some reason, with my WRT610N, downloading as little as 2KB (far from saturating my pipe) and uploading as little as 5KB will cause my pings to skyrocket as high as 3000ms (to a location that's normally 60ms). This occurs on the entire network, but my main machine is a Mac running OS X 10.5 and connected via a gigabit wired connection. This worked on my previous setup.
I have forwarded the incoming BitTorrent port I set in my client, and also tried setting up QoS on low priority for that port. (I would prefer BitTorrent to be low priority so Web browsing isn't unbearable.) Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: Thought I'd mention, this is on the latest firmware, 1.00.02 B10.
Edit 2: My neighbor hasn't secured his Wi-Fi so I hopped on and can download significantly faster and with reasonable pings. He's using a Linksys (as evidenced by his SSID) and 1.5 Mbps Qwest DSL as I am. |
