I have a DI-624+ Rev B, Router. It is connected to a Zyxel Prestige Modem.
I experience slow speed when using many applications, like for example P2P like Torrent clients. Ive gone through all tutorials for speeding up that I can find, and formatted and reinstalled Windows Xp several times, and tried different firmwares for the DI-624+, but still slow. When I run speed tests at the net (http), the speed is fine.

This day, i recently noticed in the log of my router that I have lots of packet drop. It says that the packet drop is WAN, even though my connection is not wireless (I had a wireless connection in the house, but the PC is turned off, and the network card is not connected). I can give you a screenshot from the log: I took the screenshot while not doing any activities on the internet..

I get packet loss in the log when I try to recieve both static and dynamic IP in the router. What is wrong you think? Why do I get WAN packet loss with those weird IP numbers?

No, packet loss is all the time as I said, even when I dont use p2p. Check the screenshot for those weird IPs too.

The error message "Drop TCP packet from WAN .... Rule: Default deny" suggests that the router's firewall is configured to drop those packets (perhaps because they could indicate someone trying to hack you?).

If you have legitimate programs using port 49156 and port 19621, you might need to configure your router to forward those ports.
