Haven't a clue on the Torrents but I wouldn't mind borrowing your penguin.

Of course, if you were using a penguin these sort of things wouldn't be a problem! :-)

I will try that later today. Funnily enough it worked all night after I:

a) closed all other programs
b) limited the up/down speed to 60k/sec

If anyone ever tells me again Macs are so much "easier to use" and "more reliable" because of "better OS" and "less component compatibility problems" - I will beat them ...

Hrhr. I had the same problems with downloaders that used PtoP on Unix and Windows Systems too. Don't know what the Problem was. As soon as Down- and Uplink were filled up to maximum possible, connection crashed. May be the router, the hardware, the drivers?

Those cheap-ass routers (like the Fritz!Box) have troubles when you open too many connections in too little time. This is pretty much exactly what happens when you start leeching like hell.

Things you could try include:
  • Get OpenWRT/dd-wrt on your router, or get a router with OpenWRT/dd-wrt pre-installed. The timeout for masqueraded connections is adjustable, and they’re generally much more stable.
  • Set up a linux machine and use it as router/firewall. It can support a virtually unlimited number of simultaneous connections.
  • Leech less! Piracy is murder!

Okay, you´ve asked for it... chrisznix January 9 2009, 16:42:52 UTC
Rules.
#1: Macs are always right.
#2: If something´s wrong, it´s the third party hard/software.
#3: Your Mac looks like you scratched dogshit off the street with it. It´s depressed and gives you the finger.
#4: Let´s do a clean install on it. Perhaps i fucked something up.

For real: Fritzbox=shit. If Bombe´s refusing to bash Macs like this, then it *must* be the answer. And OpenWRT rocks. 8)
