P2P interfering w/ DSL - anyone had this problem?
About three weeks ago I was having trouble with my connection. Every ten minutes or so (the times varied) it would just die. It didn't matter what OS I used (OS X or Windows) so that was ruled out (even though the guys at Telus (ISP) seemed to think that Windows was the culprit - for once it wasn't).

I had just upgraded my DSL to a faster speed so went back to the old one and it still happened. My wireless D Link router was fairly new but the non-wireless router had also been disconnecting. Finally decided to phone D Link to see if they had any ideas.

Well to make a long story short it seems that the newer versions of E-Mule (some of you surely use it) have a new service called KAD. Well KAD it seems interferes with the router and the connection goes bye, bye.

Just thought I'd mention it. Any ideas why this might be?
