ok well, im back at home now on my rogers lite connection, which is 128kb/s max....pretty crappy just on its own, but even crappier when it doesn't work properly.

I've noticed major (MAJOR) speed issues while using utorrent. now maybe im wrong since i haven't really been home for 8 months, but the speed issues were never this bad before. First of all, i can't even get decent speeds with utorrent. im talking 5-7 kbps at most. 10 if im lucky. my ports are forwarded, im even set as the dmz host but the arrow on the torrents always stays red. under tracker status in "General Information" it says "connection closed by peer". I have protocol encryption enabled and the incoming legacy box checked.

whats worse is, when i have utorrent running, it seems to use all my bandwitdh, leaving my internet utterly useless. Im not talking slow load times here, im talking complete lack of functionality. not a single page will even load while utorrent is running. hell, i can't even access my damn router page when utorrent is running.

The router itself seems pretty fucked as well. it actually takes time to load the router page, and often it doesn't load properly (see picture below), with the layout all fucked up. im tempted to switch back to my 6 year old US Robotics router. i never had any problems while using that. my current router is Linksys wireless-G 2.4 ghz, 54 mpbs.
