it uses port 80 for TCP and 15000 for UDP by default, even if I limit the upload bandwith for the port 15000, there appears to be no effect. My housemates are getting pissed and they've decided to put QoS aside and set some time window to download torrent which I do not like. But since I can't get QoS to work properly, i had to yield.

It appears that Xunlei seems to be the cause for the QoS to not work, however, I couldn't understand why turning utorrent on and with it's speed limit turned on in utorrent itself, there would still be lag in the network.

Your suggestion literally means spliiting connection rite? I thought that by allocating a max speed, his application would use up the max bandwith allocated and it wouldn't affect other people. If i got 5 people in the house, he's only ever to get 20% max, no?

As far as I can see, I think I've managed to configure it correctly although given my inability to get online using that particular router, I could very well be wrong. After plugging in the phone line to the WRT54GL, the internet LED is not lit up.
