[7.902][BUG][NOT A BUG] HTTP proxy rejects connections during up2date

I did some reseach today on my problem, and it looks like the Atheros L1 driver that comes with Windows 7 and Windows Update is just a lot of crap. If I had a continuing ping going towards the ASG 7.902 everything looked fine until I started uTorrent and loaded a few torrent files, then I got lots of packet drops, ping timeouts etc. Lots of posts on the net about it. I changed to the 2.0.6000 driver for Vista (x64) and suddenly it looks much better for me and my computer.

X:\AttansicL1_lan_V2060000_vista\Attansic\x86_x64\vista_64

So it might be my posts here about my trouble is gone, due to a faulty driver from microsoft/atheros (formerly Attansic)

Hi,

According the the ASG the client drops the connections which is not true.

Please see the extract from the http log for details.
You will note there is a pattern update happening at the same time.

I will blow my update actions out 2 twice a day until this is fixed again.

Ian,

can you please take a look at the packetfilter.log and check if you see dropped packets with a dstport=8080 at the same time  where the http proxy stops working for you?

Hi kbr,
I have checked the packet filter log and there are no port 8080 packets reported.

Ian M
