very interesting.

you'd be adding a middle man that can do exactly what they are protecting you against.

ie.. your passwords.

noones telling you to use it for business purposes

it lets you download at full speeds instead of throttled speeds

thats all this thread is here for.

and your point is?

do you use a password for your bit torrent client?

you dont have to do anything else online while connected, do you?

i have new linsys (new ones are garbage btw) and i get full download speed no prob, downloading and uploading.

i just have little port range open and all my torrent traffic gets through there without any prob.

yes roger have their speed "throttled" for this kind of stuff, but clients like utorrent, bitloard, and few others new ones have all "encrypted" data transfer when it goes through the network and it "decrypts" once it reaches other client, so rogers cant really tell what traffic is going through.

i dont know how this whole thing exactly works, but i read it somewhere last year about it, that how this new data trasfering technique can be used to get around rogers like ISPs from throttled the speed.
