Right, so I am on a University network and have been torrenting for no problem since September. Today, however, they were fucking my internet around, cut me off and have closed almost every port (except 25, 53 and 125) so I can no longer Torrent effectively. I only get ebooks and course-related material so I am pretty fucked off seeing as it's saved me over £500 on books EASILY within the past few months.
Any ideas on how to get around this? I may have to go to the pub again and use their wifi

I do and I don't. I can change my MAC address, IP address and student login (not going to elaborate) but meh. Bit shit. May have to use Starbucks or the pub then. I can still download but uTorrent has the little red icon.
Also I'd love to use the starbucks internet, but even using Backtrack on this machine has issues because of the IP conflict :mad::mad::mad:
Yeah. Works now but much slower. Calling an end to it after this file is done. To be fair I think the fact they are stopping me from Torrenting as opposed to raping me with fines is preferrable.
