Traced down why connections are being refused under heavy load but how to fix?
-
I have dual wan and sometimes the cable modem changes IP once every few months and my lan rule to route all hosts on the same subnet is slightly incorrect. Fixed now. When I don't torrent, everything is fine and dandy. Anyone see any glaring statistics when i'm torrenting?

I have the same problem.
I have two 18mbit(down) 2.5mbit(up) links and it seems to happen when i am seeding torrents.
I will leave ubuntu seeding when i am at work today and see if it happens.

System>advanced: Bump up the maximum firewallstates value. You also can monitor states either at status>system or by viewing the corresponding states rrd graph (status>rrdgraphs). Maybe you are running just out of states.

You guys mentioned the word "torrents".
My question : are you sure that some one isn't filtering upstream ??
Some kind of QOS system used by your ISP ? -
I can't confirm 100% but on my wrt54g modded with tomato firmware, I can run for a long time and my connection doesn't slow down.
Also how I know it is not the ISP problem and it is the pfsense box because getting internally to 192.168.1.1 is a big problem too. Connections are reset, refresh 15 times and 1 time the page will load half.

Just forget about my question. If another router works, then no ISP troubles.

No ideas still?

I can't believe I was so dumb. It is NOT PFSENSE and it was my windows xp sp2 causing it. I thought I had cracked the tcpip.sys to allow more than 10 syn connections but I guess I didn't. It was XP causing the problems and when I boosted the number of connections to 50, i'm all fine (crosses fingers)
THANKS!

I never thought it was a good idea from microsoft to set such a low limit :P
