Why is it that when I use torrents.to and utorrent that my computer loses its internet connection?

Ive used these countless times with no issues but for the past month or so when I try downloading music I cant get on the internet after doing so. I cant understand what happened because Ive gotten tons of music from there in the past.

I get a DNS server not responding error when I troubleshoot the internet connection.

What if you use uTorrent with another site?

Or just don’t open a website and launch uTorrent. Does it take down your network connection?

I dont know of another torrent site. Torrents.to searches most of the big ones like Pirate Bay.

It seems like Utorrent might have affected the internet by itself. I was online when I opened it and then lost the connection.

Im kind of afraid to try it now since Ive gotta do a system restore to get the connection back.

Re-install uTorrent. Your issue is the client (which is why I asked).

call your ISP and ask for help. You pay for a service you should just let them fix it.
