      I run Utorrent on a seedbox and no issues with restarts.

      I run 2.1.5 in front of the box. Hasnt upgraded to 2.2.2 yet.

      Wonder if this could be related to the SYN ACK issue described elsewhere. When DDoS'ed the only thats in the logs, is a WAN restart within seconds of the box dyiung on me.

        I'm using 2.2, no issues. One of these days I'll upgrade. But then 2.2.3 will come out right after, right?  ::)

          I think 2.2.3 is not long now…

            Hi guys,

            I'm pleased to see that much activity :) Thank you!

            Actually, when DHT is enabled and I'm actively seeding, there is no problem, but as soon as uTorrent goes in idle (all torrents stopped, but uTorrent application still running), all pfsense services restarts.

            My WAN interface is configured in PPPoE mode and there is no modem in between - direct UTP cable to my ISPs neighborhood distribution point. My internet connection is 80 Mbit/s symmetrical line, quite pleased with it.

            However I'll leave DHT disabled and continue monitoring my pfsense box.

            @Supermule, can you please extend you thoughts on the SYN ACK issue and DDoS, because I would like to read some more info on the topic. Thanks.

            Regards,
            Nick

              It's possible that the PPPoE server can't handle that many connections.
