That will depend on wether you can get to commandline in the router the speedtouch ones in the main yes, linux linksys yes but unmodified linksys no as telnet is barred

Yes But you need a router that accepts Telnet Command line Interface and the structure of the command varies from router to router, If you let me know which router you have and i should be able to reply with the command string for you.

I have put a sample command at the bottom of the windows setup.

login to your router using webbrowser

192.168.0.1

default login info:

username: admin
password: password

this may have been changed to your ISP username and password.

click on Content Filtering
click on Block Services

Service Type: HTTP > this may need to change to user defined
Protocol: Both
StartPort: 6883
Endport: 6883
Service Type User Defined: TCP tcpflags rst
Filter IP by Range:
192.168.0.1
To:
129.168.0.254

Click OK

enforcing should be set to all day or 4pm - 12pm if that is your ISP's peak time.

that should be all you need. you may have a save config changes dialog come up in which case click ok and router should reboot .
* change 6883 to your torrent listen port or 6883 - 6893 for a ten port range.

This normally will only be of benefit if its the only modem/router in the circuit. Thats why you really need commandline to your house ISP router.
This might not accept the tcpflag /tcpflags command as its part of the TCP Protocol.

If for example you have a ntl 250 modem the the slowdown would be initiated in there, so without telnet to block the "tcp tcpflags rst" you wont be able to block the RST flag as it doesnt hit your router.

If your using your own adsl modem then you can get access if it allows commandline setup. or as in your case a user defined protocol where the above can be entered.

but that said try it!
protocol tcp/udp =both

service type/userdefined tcp tcpflags rst

as one line
