[Bug 442312] Re: Transmission triggers anti-SYN-Flood countermeasures and Wi-Fi connection is killed often

[charles]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

I don't think this is a Transmission bug.  If you Google for that error message you
can find it being caused by KTorrent[1] and Deluge[1] too.  According to [3], your
machine thinks it's under attack because of the high rate of incoming connections.
SYN cookies are there to try to maintain a usable network connection despite such
an attack.  The poster there gives instructions on how to disable the warning.
