Bit Torrent

Does anyone have a way around Rogers limiting the bandwidth on BT downloads?

I went from 350kb/s to 15kb/s.

I'll probably switch to DSL really soon, probably a smaller company just because Bell might limit the download rates sometime soon too.

I was told with full confidence from a Bell employee that they would never again cap their service.

If Rogers continues to keep this up I wonder how long it will take before Bell follows suit.

Also, I heard from a reliable source that the reason Rogers is having issues with torrents is because it eats up a lot of bandwidth, and they are having trouble keeping up with their new Rogers Online phone... thing so this is a way to figure out their problems in the meantime.

Who knows. All I have to say is I'm glad I'm on Bell for now.

That won't change a single thing, ISPs can still filter by header content (therefore using bit torrent headers). And it won't even matter if you change ports. ISPs control us. That simple.
