Hello
I've been studying / living at school for the pass 3 days. I haven't had time to BT the stuffz I missed.Is it possible to check which port is open so I can BT at school? I want to BT at school!

My frds said something about tunneling, setup something at home and use home internet from school. Sounds really confusing.![]()

You can't really, legally of course, since they blocked ports for a good reason.
You will have to manually find an open port, and even then there are a huge amount. As well, you risk getting your internet canceled if you do try and BT, which isn't worth it. -

Uhh, depends on the AUP of your school. What I used to do was log into my friend's Linux box via SSH, use screen and the command line BitTorrent and download stuff, and then grab it from his FTP later.

SSH is a great way to go about keeping things private, but for that use it's probably not ethical. (not to get on my high horse, not one to judge)
My roommate recently got an email about using BT to download a movie. They can/are watching. At least where I attend, they don't care so much that you are downloading illegally, simply that you are using their network resources to do so. They have to cover their behinds. Something to do with the DCMA -
Well, I'm using port 80 right now. Only getting 10 kbs atm.

Well, not everything you can download using BT is illegal. WoW patches are distributed via BT...
I want to BT at school!
