OT: BitTorrent, encryption, traffic shaping and the Internet

[Amos H. Weatherill]

I can tell you all that Routers and firewalls are not the problem
if you are on Rogers Yahoo Hi-speed Internet.

They are bowing to pressure from Groups like the RIAA and MPAA to
cap P2P Networks.  They are accomplishing this by capping upload
speeds and lying about having configuration problems with the
Traffic Shaping software.

My advice to anyone is that you should call Customer Service and
Threaten to switch ISP's if they don't stop this BS.  If they
discover that their behaviour is going to affect their bottom
line, they will stop.

Signed.
Amos H. Weatherill

I am, and I am... I don't think the router is the problem here...
