Re: [Merged] ntl & P2P
 

Hi mark, thanks for the reply! I have a cable modem that I was using in Huddersfield.. a NTL Home 120.


We have 2 STBs here, 1 downstairs which has the broadband enabled, and one for seperate viewing upstairs? Can you setup the NTL Home 120 CM?

I'm away on holiday tomorrow for 2 weeks but any help would be appreciated!

Cheers,

Andy

BB Connection Loss using Overnet/EDONKEY
 

Hi all,

Great forum ! v useful !

I have been using BB NTL 150K for ages. However I have just started using overnet/edonkey P2P and the connection keeps dropping and the only solution is to reset the STB (digi TV box).

I am connecting the STB directly to my PC via ethernet cable (not via a router). I have configured overnet for the 150k BB speed, however it keeps crashing. The digital TV however is still functioning properly.

Thanks in advance.

Phil

:welcome: longie :)

It could be that your STB doesn't like the number of connections being made when you use Overnet/EDonkey.

The upload setting in the P2P software shouldn't be set to your actual upload speed, as you'll saturate the upstream & cause connection problems.

Try capping the upload in Overnet/EDonkey. [Have a look at http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robin.d...mtips/p2p.html & particularly http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robin.d...p.html#edonkey for more]

Also worth reading this thread through from the start (as your post has been merged with it).

Zone Alarm 5.* causes alot of problems for p2p users - check the zone labs forum for the past few months and see what I mean (General Section)
