Is there a way to mask your p2p traffic as something else?I thought p2p traffic was masked whe you used a proxy or vpn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still go through them so they would notice high volume traffice that would be a good indicator to them this is torrent. Also they most likely have something written in their internet usage talking about torrent and what is allowed and not allowed. This is their protection against Studios suing them over Copyright Infringement. Also VPN or Proxy setting this is something you must do yourself and goes beyond utorrent itself here. So you will have to go to find help at other places if you want to VPN or Proxy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
