What should i buy

What is the determining factor on a router resetting. My router keeps resetting due to the amount of connections around 600 - 800. I am a PC power user and run a Slingbox, webserver, I use VPN, I nearly max out my entire cable connection and have 10 users on the network. I was looking at the Cisco 800 series routers as a possible solution?

The 800 series would probably be a good fit for you. The models differ based on connectivity and options.

I would have a look at the model comparison chart to narrow it down:

Is this router any good for bittorrent

I would recommend an 871 ( an 871W if you wish to have wireless). I have one and used it for everything you mentioned, and had no troubles with it. Here's a link with more info.

Had no issues using bit torrent. It's a pretty good SOHO router.
