I have two linux machines on my network, with a Linksys WRT54G router<br>
(running Tomato). If I run Transmission bittorrent client on one<br>
machine, it's okay, but if both are running Transmission, the whole<br>
network grinds to a halt. Even if I put a speed limit on both clients,<br>
so that each only uses a small percentage of the bandwidth (admittedly<br>
slim at around 2 Mb), it is still impossible to do anything else on<br>
the network.<br>
<br>
Has anyone encountered a situation like this? I am a total beginner<br>
when it comes to configuring routers, beyond port forwarding.<br></blockquote><div><br>Did you limit both upload and download speeds? <br>It might be that two bittorents are sending a lot of data and that slows down the network.<br>
