My nephew and I occassionally play BF2142 online. My Linksys DD-WRT based router had a problem. It had max ports set out 512. When my PC then his polled hundreds of servers to find the best connection it hit that limit. Raising it to 1024 seemed to fix it. So limiting connections will likely smack gamers as well as p2p users. Matt -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
