Salton5ea Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 well i assumed that, im guessing that it is a network issue because i do not have access to the sip because i live on campus which means i use public internet. I cannot change the network settings to fix this because i don't know which routers are in use. It still says i should be able to download though.

DopeBoy01 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 I also have this problem- I've tried everything, I'm not an idiot, I have been able to download anything fine at my house and on alternate internet sources, but I think when it comes to public wifi (I live on a University campus as well) I get shafted and can't download anything. It sits at 0%... I can't change any of the firewall settings for the internet because I am obviously not an admin. I guess there's nothing I can really do, but if there were some genius out there who new about some way to get by this, that would be great! (note: I can't download proxies, I've tried TOR/Vidalia... I am honestly stumped here). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 i live on campus (I live on a University campus as well) That is your problem. They just block your BitTorrent traffic there... Ask them.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DopeBoy01 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 is there anyway to bypass this or any other program that could override it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Yes, buy and connect to your own Internet service (cables/DSL/Cellular) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DopeBoy01 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 haha ya i already bought my own router and stuff, but they disabled the ethernet ports in the wall and only allow access to their wifi networks... Oh well i guess i can live without torrents. Thanks anyways though boss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Another option is to buy/use a VPN service that allows bittorrent . Google it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
