maybe you need a Cable modem or one of the new Samsung boxes, my Samsung works much better.

The Pace STBs (not sure about the Samsung) have problems with P2P uploading etc if the P2P app's upload rate is not capped: they can't handle the number of connections. If the upload setting is too high then the upstream gets completely saturated & the box can lock up.
See here:

Even if using a cable modem, instead of STB, it's still best to limit the upload rate in any P2P software etc to less than what your actual upload speed is.
