I'll have to get a new router soon. Basically, No torrenting for me until I get a new one. Sorry people

You might just need to reduce your upload (and maybe download) speed and max number of connections. It sounds like the router is getting overloaded (typical Linksys behaviour). I've heard that reducing up/down speed and number of connections can make the problem all but disappear.
