My connection is having issues

Any ideas?

Essentially, once I open BT or eMule, programs that make lots of connections, the Internet no longer works for new connections (my browser, connecting to the tracker, checking my e-mail, etc.).

It happened again, so I checked the logs in "Event Viewer":

TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts.

So what can I do to disable this in XP SP2? I hear there's some program that can do this.

Time will tell.

Well it didn't work. Still having issues with having large numbers of connections open.

For example, I can browse the Internet just fine with DC++ open, but not if eMule or Azureus is open. What really gets to me is that after a few moments of having Azureus open (after it starts making lots of connections), it can no longer connect to any trackers to update it's peer/seed list. Same goes for eMule and connecting to a different hub.

Perhaps it's my router or my modem, you think?

has the " TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts." error occurred ever since?

Nope.

I think I may just format. I'm having sound issues now too. Dunno if it was related to that patch or what.

 

[bigfoot1942]

impossible...

how about reinstalling the drivers for your network card?

For the moment, everything is working as it should. Azureus is open and yet I can browse the web just fine. I don't have mIRC open as I usually do. Think it could be that? :?

And I fixed the sound issue, so I'm gonna give this some more work before I fall back on formatting.

I take that back. After a while, my Internet stopped working. I'm thinking it made more connections and then died.

I'll try turning the number of connections way down in Azureus.

What about netwerk problems/maintenance on your ISP's part. Have you called 'em or checked their website?

 

[Viper007Bond]

Hmm, you know, it could be that... Whenever I have Azureus or whatever open, and I can't surf the Internet, neither can my dad on his computer.

Why didn't I think of this?!?! D'Oh
