Launching Transmission Crashes Wireless

[miamillie]

Hi there,

Can anyone assist? When launching Transmission it crashes our wireless internet connection. Does anyone know what will help?

Thanks!

Dump your wireless router, and buy a new one. Alternatively, keep the hardware but reflash it with OpenWRT.

Disabling the DHT and reducing the number of simultaneous peers might help, but that's only a workaround for the limitations of a mis-designed piece of firmware.

Everything Juliusz says is correct, though I'd also throw in a vote for reflashing with Tomato.
