router problems

[Rubber314Chicken]

I love my internet- 150 kB/s download speeds (compared to the advirtized 96 kB/s), but my router sucks. In bittorrent, I have the max speed set to 50 kB/s if the speed exceeds that, my router will disconnect me, and I can only reconnect by restarting my computer. Why is that? I've tried resetting the router, turning the router off along with all the computer, and turning them back on, and it still willn't work. what else could I do?

go into your router settings and change that setting i think.

no, I doun't think that would make a difference, because It only happens on my computer -with windows Xp, and not the rest of the compes (windows ME or 98)

It's not DCHP lease time- that is 72 hours, my comp is never one for more than 10 hours.

in Event Viewer, do you see ''EventId 4226'' probs?
i have come across a couple of probs caused by older usb connected router/modems and this error.
