My first question is, what kind of router are you using, and does the problem go away (for a short time or a long time) if you reset the router? I am assuming a consumer-type router. Sometimes a lot of connections can overload consumer routers, this has definitely happened to mine with both Tor and Bittorrent. * The router can become overloaded and respond slowly or drop packets * The connection table can fill up, allowing existing connections to work fine, but new connections fail intermittently (web pages half load, DNS gets weird, etc) Some versions of Windows limited # of connections per second or something like that, where as Linux does not. Aside from all the logs and config settings the other people on the list asked for - what make and model of router are you using, and are you running anything like OpenWRT, DD-WRT, Tomato on it? Best, - -Gordon M. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJSEP24AAoJED/jpRoe7/uj/YIH+wTH6FSi8411rMwcAxssxIn/ YlfDFQENwOz4j/97H7E3oKKrTpDd6r7FP4dRiymqTzJPAJXtIbzLqifJRdCVovLE 0i8S1O21uOU1vBWTlGhf0jUVB7hvFNo/toKe8HI4zM1mTlfSl3HWQ7UdgeN5tehW tcfTT0hD0NXiuHyHtmulPWH/h/84azv34tg8ipICg5PNDWrpPZsXaSYs89dspkOf yx0zglumEiTYBBAJBa7qei7I43MztIzJnkFbG0foS+mXFJTVw5GFolQojryhUEb1 98tOMwVwdXvPu3yBWBCWWloK+2S5G9fDWMAsg3k41GGHIn7E9yk4pruDrBAWqUY= =42um -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
