Multiple modem disconnections when in Ultra-peer mode

Hi all,

Everytime I'm running as an ultrapeer my DSL connection will reset more
often than usual. Normally my DSL connection will be reset every 24
hours by my ISP (Freenet), but when GTKG is running as ultrapeer, the
disconnections can be as often as every 30 minutes or every 2 hours.

Currently I have the most recent SVN copy of GTKG (r15971) and I have a
maximum of 20 Ultrapeers and 25 Leaves set. This number I reduced from a
higher one I had before (I believe it was 70 or 80 UP and 100 Leaves),
in the belief that perhaps it was the number of connections being made
that bothered the DSL modem, a Fritz!Box Fon WLan (7113). But reducing
the number of connections hasn't helped a bit and I still get
disconnected every hour or so, sometimes even more quickly.

The most straightforward reason for this behaviour could simply be that
the DSL modem cannot handle the traffic, although when I'm not
downloading or uploading anything, the Gnutella traffic as reported by
the GUI is around 7 kB/s at most in any one direction (I haven't seen it
go higher than that).

Then it could be that my ISP doesn't like gnutella traffic and
disconnects me on purpose.

I don't think this is a GTKG problem per se, since I've seen similar
behavior when downloading files with Bittorrent, but I thought maybe
some of you could help me pinpoint what's the exact problem. How would I
go about finding whether the ISP is disconnecting me, or is the modem
the one failing? I'm glad with some pointers in the right direction and
I would of course do the necesary reading.

Any help would be appreciated.
