Eircom Zyxel Router & uTorrent

Charlie

Currently, whenever I run uTorrent and download a torrent, my Internet browsers (Chrome + FF) grinds to a complete stop and wont load pages. The wifi on my iPhone stills works fine and I can browse safari on that, and my flatmates laptops still can browse online. From looking around this seems to be to do with IP Flood detection.

Problem is, I have a crappy Eircom Zyxel modem. Does anyone know how to disable IP Flood detection on the Zyxel, or any other work around/solution that will allow me to use uTorrent and browse at the same thanks.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I have the same issue it also happens with DayZ server browsers like DaZ Commander. I never tried port forwarding because uTorrent said network was ok but I'll give it a shot, thanks.

that modem has a limited number of connections by default and once they are maxed out it effectively shuts down your internet access.
go to the network and NAT section and set the number of connections to 4096 and it should fix it

I just lowered my firewall and I never had any problems with uTorrent since even though I always leave it running 24/7.
