TCIB said:What client are you using ?
It sounds like a speed limit issue. Set your upload speed to a max of 80% of your total upload.

How do you do this?

Why would that help?

Because after a while if you do not replace your filters the downloads speeds are reduced. Try it and reboot the wireless box and see.

I get tired of trying to help people on this forum only to be met by resistance because people want to prove something.

Although only small, Microfilters have a big part to play in the correct set up of broadband within the home. Connecting one of them to every telephone socket you use will help to ensure that your broadband runs as fast as possible.

Microfilters can be problematic if you are using a faulty one. Faulty microfilters will impact your speeds and you will get disconnections. To check your microfilters to see if you’ve got a faulty one, unplug everything from all phone sockets in the house, test each filter from the test port from within your master socket by connecting to the Internet. If you get a substantially lower sync or disconnections using one of the filters you’ve found your faulty one and it will need to be replaced.
GazC said:I've just read your posts in the monolith thread; there's no way I'm getting into a discussion with a narcissist. Post all the links you want but microfilters would not be to blame for a torrent connection dropping from 1.7mbps to 150kbps.
You might want to help people but don't give them advice that is wrong and is at a cost.
GazC said:Last post before you go on the foe list, but just re-read the thread and you'll see it was caused by downloading a large torrent; utorrent, by default attempts to cache the data, but a bug in both bittorrent and utorrent causes the disk to overload significantly slowing down the disk write speed which curbs the download speed to the speed the disk can write at. Disabling the cache resolves the issue and, as the op confirmed, the issue is now resolved without the need to replace the microfilters.
Had your advice been followed the op could have been compelled to purchase new microfilters to only be greeted with the same problem.
Had the microfilters been to blame the attenuation would have reached a level where the connection constantly dropped, not reducing the download speed to 150kbps.
ps, I labelled you a narcissist not as an insult but because you portray all the signs at a level I've never seen before, you need to seek help.
