Hi,
Since recently I'm having a serious issue with bittorrent downloads, and having a bandwidth of 25 Mbps down and 10 Mbps up, I'm lucky if I can get 10 kB/s down for torrents with 4000+ seeds. The problem occurs both on my win 8.1 PC and my Synology DS412+ (with link aggregation), and so this points at a block, or by the ISP, or by the RT AC66U.
Running the Glasnost test (port 6881), to check if the ISP is at cause, I however get a negative result, and download speeds of about 600 kB/s are found. I'm however not 100% sure if this points at the router as possible cause, and I am running the latest Merlin build, 3.0.0.4.374.35_4. The confirmation came however after replacing the Asus with a Syslink E4200, which gives me the normal download rates.
One detail, although I'm not sure why this would play a role for the Asus and not for the Syslink, is that I am on a satellite connection, with about 600 ms latency.
I would be extremely interested to know if other people have similar issues, or if there might be a setting for the Asus which I have skipped. And by the way, the Download Master on the Asus is not installed, which excludes port conflicts.
Ports used are 6881:6889 for my PC and 16881:16889 for the NAS, and they are open. I've tried alternative ports, but the result is the same.
