Web browsing comes to a standstill when seeding

Post by aeslis »

Hi All,

I tried to search the forums for this issue, and I found someone else who asked about it, but the solutions offered didn't help me. Essentially, when seeding, my web browsing will utterly hang. I'm not sure what the issue is. I have had to throttle upload my upload significantly; it's currently at 1K KiB/s, but my internet is so much faster than that. I have upload speeds of 500+ MB/s. It seems to me I should be able to handle far heavier upload for seeding.

I am not really tech-minded, so the nuances of all the settings are a bit beyond me. I have lowered my connection limits:
Global max connections: 20
Max per torrent: 5

At these limits, my internet MIGHT load... but it's quite strained, and I'll still get "trouble finding that site" errors.

I've updated to the most recent build (5.0.4).

Any help in troubleshooting the issue would be much appreciated.
