When i'm downloading something via torrent and the speed goes >2MB/s, the router crashes.
There is a fix for that? What can I do?

Who makes your router and what is the model number.
Also how can you tell your router has crashed?
IMO the most likely reason for an actual crash is being out of RAM memory because of too many connections. To test this theory you can reduce the maximum connection limit to say 512 and see if that improves the router stability. Then increase until the problem returns.

the router (as the title says) is a TP-Link WR1043ND w/ Gargoyle 1.5 and HW version 1.8.
When it crashes, the wifi connection is lost and I can't connect again to the router until I reboot it.
I'm going to try reducing the connections.

Can you verify whether it's only the wifi part that crashes? Do you still have Ethernet connectivity if you hook up a computer to a LAN port?

We how about posting the output of 'logread' and 'dmesg'? Maybe something will show there.
