 And when it's in the failed state, what does ifconfig(8) show?

that, and also do you connect with a dsl modem/router?

 Not sure if this is already posted or already reported as a bug
 because i honestly don't have time for those things.

 I have reproduced this problem a few times but it has some special
 requirements. For example i download a torrent from a very fast peer
 in the rtorrent client. I have reproduced this with both rTorrent
 0.4.5 - 
 libTorrent 0.8.5 and two earlier versions which i don't remember. My
 friend is using the same versions as i am now and reported no problems
 in the latest development versions, he only started using them
 today. I have a 10/10Mbit connection at home and this happens when
 rtorrent is downloading at max speed. It varies somewhere around
 7-10Mbit but never over 10Mbit by much. My friend only has a capacity
 of 1Mbit but got the same problem.

 This is why i'm reporting this because if it turns out that this can
 be reproduced by sending speciall crafted packets or packets in a
 special order then i guess it's pretty serious. I highly doubt this
 but still, a user process should not kill the net like rtorrent has
 done.

 Both me and my friend were running FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE when this happened.

 I was not going to report this but a friend just told me he gets the
 exact same results on FreeBSD 6.0 so i felt i should tell someone.

Do you have good NICs?

Hi

One thing i should have mentioned is that this only happens with 
rtorrent. For example i can transfer in 10Mbit+(not much plus) from 
work, where i have no bandwidth restriction, for hours without problems. 
Using scp, i have not tried with ftp and very large files. When i 
transfer large files from work with scp i can maintain a speed of 
10Mbit+ for long periods of times without problems. This problem has 
only happened because of rtorrent using a lot of bandwidth. And as i 
said earlier it happens when using less bandwidth to.

Is you computer behing a dsl modem/router which does NAT?
Sometimes modem/routers cannot handle the number of connections
torrents do and die. And most of the time you cannot have a clue, everything
will look normal, but it won't do NAT.

Also, what do mean when you say net dies? Do you mean internet dies
or your LAN dies?

Hi

Not sure how to answer your question but the network dies in a way that 
i can't send any packets out or recive any packets in. What usually 
helps is to run dhclient fxp0 on my card again. My friend said he used 
to bring the card down and then up again and it would solve the issue.
