Title: wireless net help
Post by: Mupepe on April 30, 2007, 02:13:30 AM
okay, got a question....

i'm downloading something off of bit torrent.  it's going like 80 kb/s   

and then i notice someone leeching off my wireless internet, so i disable my wireless internet, i'm still wired through to my router and i still have net access etc.

but, once i block that person from accessing, bittorrent starts slowing down.  it gets down to 10kb/s.

so i'm all like wtf?  and i think, maybe they're related, so i enable wireless again and it speeds back up


wtf?  what gives?

Hey mupepe first get your shit protected, enable mac filtering, and if your real anal put a password protection in there. Also turn off SSID broadcasting. I have two routers, one is hooked up just for my DS the other is locked down. Also with torrents make sure you got it setup properly. Some trackers are really finacky and will fuck you with shitty connections.
