>I have been having some problems over the past few weeks with my Linksys WRT54G router. Basically what was happening is that when I was using a BitTorrent client, I would lose network connectivity with other clients on my home network. I did some research and apparently it is a bug with the older versions of that model of router... something with the log filling up because of all of the connections that BitTorrent was opening and closing. I found that when I powered down my router and brought it back up it would fix the problem.

Hadn't heard of it until your message ;) I've had good luck with several clients running dd-WRT stable.

Just a note for lurkers: if you're contemplating buying one of these routers, spend the extra $10 or so and get the WRT-54GL, which has more RAM which in turn gives you lots more options for more capable replacement firmwares.
