All my Internet traffic (Web, eMail etc.) seems to be astable when mlMac is running. Anyone with the same phenomenon? I'm running 10.3.1 (all updates), Airport Graphite Base Station.

same thing here, 'cept that I'm directly connected to my ISP via a Zyxel PPTP xDSL modem.

I believe it's a problem with the mldonkey core client, the developers have confirmed that it will kill the internet-connection occasionally under some circumstances. mlmac is just the GUI, it hasn't really got anything to do with network-traffic and such.

I found an article in the mlmac forum. there it says, you have to set the max connections of mlnet to 50 or so. I did, and it worked. Everything is fine, now.

In mlMac, go Preferences > mlnet > Bandwidth > set to approx. 50

Dammit. Hate. Answering. Myself.

The above "solution" is cranky - it does only work for some time. After a while (approx. 2 hours or less), Web and HTTP goes mad, I have to restart the Base Station by pulling the plug. The station is in the cellar, I have arachnophobia, so that's not an option.

I just cannot believe there's no one else with that problem. Someone more skilled than me...
