Thread: Best Router for Bit torrent @ $100

Currently my router just isn't cutting it. whenever i seed more than 10 torrents at once, my internet gets destroyed, and browsing becomes impossible. my webpages seem to load some things and some others, at extremely slow rates. ive confirmed that it's my router by plugging my internet stright to my computer and torrenting without problem.

now, right now ive got a linksys wrt54g with dd-wrt flashed, and i couldnt be more dissapointed. the whole router experience has sucked, from speeds, BT, to networking

im getting a new router this weekend for around 100 big ones and want some protips/advice on a good solid torrenting router.

im currently considering this... d-link dir-655

Newegg.com - D-Link DIR-655 IEEE 802.11n (draft) IEEE 802.11g IEEE 802.11b IEEE 802.3 IEEE 802.3u Xtreme N Gigabit Router - Wireless Routers

yup...it's worth every penny, i have d-link also and as far as i know the d-link`s are the best routers, but i had someone to configurate the settings for the router... :)

Do you have QOS (Quality of Service) feature on your ddwrt? I have it in my Tomato FW. If you do and if its turned off then that may be the reason (torrents slowing your internet down). If you have it turned on then it might be configured wrong. Just saying what's on top of my head here...
