Should be on router instead but most current model would have UPnP feature in place otherwise port-forwarding is a must. I have tested P2P on firmware 2.02 and speed was fairly good, I always use Ubuntu distro as the test torrent.

There are plenty of links on this forum dealing with it such as 10/100/1000 routers, CAT5 vs CAT5e vs CAT6 cables , NIC speed, homeplugs, etc.

The Pc and the NAS connected to
a gigabit switch..
As i said, the transfer speed on the
NAS between the PC is OK.
I try copy to the NAS (shared folder),
the speed is 15-20 M/sec...
...not 10 k/sec...
But if i try to save with the torrent client
to the NAS (shared folder), the problem
is still there....

Any other advice?
Thx..
