quote: yea, like willay said probably port blocking a range of ports and then traffic shaping the other stuff - which sounds about right if you have managed to get torrents working with encryption. | |

Cheeky thing is you can pay £120 to upgrade and they'll let you use p2p software and online games - or at least unblock you. | |

Unis are pretty good when it comes to filtering, its more likely they are port blocking non standard ports then sniffing/identifying the type of traffic. | |

if its the ISP then chances are they are using traffic shaping of sorts, in which case you are pretty limited to what you can do - but like john said, look at uTorrent, seems to work alright in terms of that for torrents. | |

Tor is just a tool to use for anonymous internet access/file sharing. | |

It would depend what they are using to block it. | |

Also these sites might not be blocked internally by the uni but by the ISP, as our works ISP blocks out all P2P sites so not even network admin can get onto them :( | |
