Let me clarify: m0n0 even logs my dropped packets. Now, I'm not using bittorrent either, but the concept is the same. By the way, I should have finished reading your message before I asked if you had tried any other firewalls :) Brandon -----Original Message----- From: Brandon Holland [mailto:brandon at cookssaw dot com] Sent: Sunday, January 25, 2004 6:36 PM To: 'Andreas Mueller' Cc: m0n0wall at lists dot m0n0 dot ch Subject: RE: [m0n0wall] m0n0wall dropping packets when using bittorrent I actually have noticed this problem as well. I just assumed it wasn't a m0n0 problem. Have you used other routers/firewalls that don't do this?

The data transfer rates are miserable, and surfing across the web is almost impossible. When I stop the download, all values are normal again. When using only one HTTP or FTP download, the download rates reach something about 90 kbyte/s, so it's not the data rate, but the connections/second that m0n0wall doesn't like. I am using a PPTP ADSL connection (768/128 kbit/s). The same connection worked very well with IPCop and a home made Linux firewall based on Red Hat Linux 7.3. Regards, Andreas Mueller P.S. Yes, there are legal things you can download with Bittorrent: http://torrent.dulug.duke.edu/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: m0n0wall dash unsubscribe at lists dot m0n0 dot ch For additional commands, e-mail: m0n0wall dash help at lists dot m0n0 dot ch --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: m0n0wall dash unsubscribe at lists dot m0n0 dot ch For additional commands, e-mail: m0n0wall dash help at lists dot m0n0 dot ch |
