-Transmission is an open source BitTorrent client. It lets you download/upload torrents directly on your router. The results is that you don't have to leave a LAN device, such as a PC running just to share Torrents. Note however, that you will need storage attached to your router, or elsewhere, via one of the filesharing protocols, such as CIFS.\\+Transmission is an open source BitTorrent client. With is, you can download/upload torrents directly on your router.

- +
-**''opkg install transmission-web transmission-daemon transmission-remote''** \\ +

-Simply download the three packages using the opkg tool, then point to /opt/bin from the transmission web client. That will use opkg's transmission:\\ opkg install transmission-web transmission-daemon transmission-remote\\ \\ Now it won't crash.+

That will cause the Transmission binary installed via opkg to be used instead of FreshTomato's default one.

-Another way to do this is to define a blocklist here to use P2Partisan instead. With P2Partisan, you can define more lists and block ranges of addresses. To use it, you must install a script, according these instructions:  [[https://www.linksysinfo.org/index.php?threads/p2partisan-v5-16-v6-16-mass-ip-blocking-peerblock-peerguardian-for-tomato.69128/|Linksysinfo.org: P2Partisan]]+Another way to do this is to define a blocklist here to use P2Partisan instead.
