I'm having trouble using my router. It can not handle me hosting a map for longer than 10 seconds or it'll crash so I'll have to restart it.
I am not able to upload files bigger than 1MB without crashes. Even though I have like a download speed around 1.7MB/per second and upload speed around 500kb/per second.
Does anybody know how I can fix this problem?
I'm using Vista. This doesn't work either on my dad's XP or my brother's Vista.

It could be a number of things, but it sounds like it might just be a problem with the router itself. Is this a new router? Has it worked in the past?

Nope, it is old. It has never really be able to handle so much flow(I don't think it is that much).

Routers that are old can exhibit such flaky performance; things wear out over time. :sad:

Anyway, you might consider getting a new router eventually.
