No connection, LAN and no way to forward ports.

Hi.

I have a little problem.

I recently moved, and the internet I have now is part of a big LAN and we get internet via the university, so I can't forward ports at all. At first, it all worked excellent, but since yesterday I can't get any connection.

µTorrent says "No incoming connections" all of a sudden (since I moved, I've had the red light, but I could still download and upload at great speed).

If I do the test, my port isn't forwarded. And as mentioned, I can't change that fact, but I mean, it worked earlier.

Any idea what the problem might be?

Thanks.

Universities tend to block BitTorrent traffic, just to preserve their limited internet bandwidth.

(They may have a LOT, but it's split so many ways!)

The new year may have brought about new changes to meet new laws concerning ISPs snooping on customers and self-reporting any possible copyright violations.

I know that is not the case this time. A lot of people use torrents without any problems what so ever, so I'm GUESSING it's some problem for me and not the net.
