Hello, what does the "Maximum Number of Connection Setups" box under Advanced do? What should I set it to if I am on a 100mbit/100mbit connection?

It means the limit for the maximum number of connection establishments. The max does probably depend on your router, not on your connection. (i have the default 50 for my sitecom router)

If you start getting problems with other internet traffic while KT is running, try lesser values. It all depends on how much your router can handle.

It limits the number of so-called "half-open" connections (i.e. attempted to establish but not yet established). Many routers suck at tracking a large number of these and will stall all internet if the # of half-opens is exceeding its maximum.
