This is my first time with adsl so im not 100% that the configuration is correct. I have reinstalled 5.1-release.(i haven't changed any of the configuration) The adsl modem is a billion 5100. the modem is configured with the following: mode as Bridge. encapsulation to RFC 1483. Multiplex to LLC. VPI 8 VCI 35 IP address to 0.0.0.0 Network Address Translation to None. (ie. ive switched the routing options off, so i can have it purely as a modem) rc.conf ---------- has the following entries: gateway_enable="yes" kern_securelevel_enable="no" moused_enable="YES" sendmail_enable="none" sshd_enable="Yes" usbd_enable="yes" #networking network_interfaces="fxp0 dc0 lp0 tun0" ifconfig_fxp0="inet 10.0.5.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.0.5.255" # PPPoE for dsl ppp_enable="YES" ppp_mode="ddial" ppp_profile="curl" sysctl.conf ----------- net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 ppp.conf --------- default: set device PPPoE:dc0:curl set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command set speed sync set mru 1492 set mtu 1492 set ctsrts off enable lqr set timeout 0 enable dns add default HISADDR set redial 0 0 curl: set authname my_username set authkey my_password im running the default kernel, i haven't recompiled it yet with any new/additional options. packages installed cvsup-without-gui expat gettext gmake isc=dhcp3-server libiconv libtool lynx-ssl py23-Bittorrent-core python Im getting decent speeds with http downloads(90kbps), but when i run the bittorrent client i average speeds of 30-40 BYTES. its enough to make me cry. Is there anything i should be looking at or doing or should configure? i run bittorrent /usr/local/bin/btdownloadcurses.py torrent_filename. Thanks in advance for your help.
