maybe they limit people who do encrypted traffic and BT handshakes at the same time.

Hm, try lowering the max connections. And this has been reported here already.

Edit: Eh, just realized you posted there already...

Use a port above 30,000.
Set Encryption to "forced" & uncheck "allow incoming legacy connections."

Rodger’s newer dirty trick is dropping tracker connections. So you need some type of proxy or secure connection for tracker communication, let the encryption handle connections to other peers.

Whats needed is some type of secure tracker connection, IPSec would be cool. But I don't know enough about programming yet to be a judge.

Firon had a good idea as well:

here is the little box i want to strap some TNT to.

perhaps we understand how the box works we understand how to break it/bypass it.

I'm on Rogers and I've noticed that if I put my upload to the max, they kill the connection every 10 mins on average and then I have to go into my settings and change the port each time. My max upload on my cable is 50kb and all I did was lower the max upload to 40kb and now it barely disconnects. Only 2 or 3 times in the past week. Now I can browse and upload.

I also lowered max connections from 400 to 180, peers per torrent to 90 and max active torrents to 2.

I also have Rogers and hate it totally. If it were up to me I would switch but my parents work pays for Rogers so I get it free.

Anywho, 1720 appears to be a popular port but to my knowledge it's not as fast as it used to be, Rogers did something. Right now i'm using 1755 and I believe it's better.

Could somebody please go into detail about using a proxy for tracker communications?

perhaps i see a utorrent 1.6 down the road?

Might be possible to sue them under breech of contract, that being you're paying them for services (internet access) that is not being provided.

I would love to sue them but my moms work provides us and her company with Rogers for free, so that wouldn't work out well.

I hope somebody sues Rogers though, they are the devil.

Edit: On the topic of Rogers being a bitch; I have a red bubble on Utorrent and my port is forwarded properly, I was downloading at 400kbps yesterday and have changed nothing since then.

Under network settings, I have protocol encryption set to forced, and "allow incoming legacy connections" unchecked. Is this right?

I doubt Rogers can throttle Encrypted BT, without throttling all encrypted connections or limiting the amount of connections one can make. Hyper, calm down and see this through as I'm sure either scenario wouldn't fly with there Business customers. My prediction is that they are doing this as a temporary solution, and to a very limited amount of people as the outcry has not been far reaching as last time was. Also last I checked DOS'ing is forbidden in the eua you signed when becoming a Rogers user. Finally, for your sake make sure it isn't an issue with your computer like portforwarding, or a firewall, etc.
