Yup, lots residential ISPs are adding layer 7 classification and analysis capabilities into their network for traffic shaping purposes. |

Simon, the computer-tech godd.
Do you believe in a god that satisfies?
Do you believe in a god that opens eyes?
Do you believe in a god that tells you lies?
Or do you believe in me?
Do you believe in a god that brings you down?
Do you believe in a god that wears a crown?
Do you believe in a god that makes you bow?
Or do you believe in me?

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 |
There was an article on neowin last summer that stated torrents account for ~35% of ALL internet traffic. Not all torrent content is illegal though, some companies and governmental institutions use torrents to distribute large data files. Capping all torrent activity is kinda like throwing the baby out with the bath water. |

I would call rogers if I was you and tell them to either give you full bandwith or you are gonna look for another provider.
Also, isn't it illegal to filter content by content headers? Some privacy here? :wtf: |

That is exactly what pisses me off. Here pay for high speed internet but we're going to cap your download limit and then proceed to you over without any warning about what you can and can not download.

I think I will call them. Can anyone confirm if what they're doing is allowed (I'm assuming it's somewhere in the contract or else they wouldn't risk doing it in the first place) or if it's a breach of their contract or anything like that? I want to give them a call but I'd rather be a little more educated first. |

I'd go through your terms of service contract with a fine tooth comb.
However the statement at the bottom mentioning things can change at anytime may you large.
Just complain about certain programs not working correctly through the internet and you are led to believe that rogers is the one doing the throttling.
Call and bitch, if they tell you to shove it, switch to DSL. |

done use azareus,
use bitcomet and enable the encryption.
the bad part with this is that you will only recieve good speeds with other users who use bitcomet and have the encryption enabled.
azareus team is currently working on encryption for their btclient...
rogers is blocking everything torrent related, even private servers.

I seriously have no clue what your talking about....
I use Azures. Im with Rogers.... mine used to be at 15-20 for the good files, and its still the same |

azareus does not have encryption.. YET.. they are working on it.
bitcomet does.
if you and me are downloading the same torrent.
because we have bitcomet and encryption enabled. the download will go fast, how fast? 100k-200k-300k whatever the speed from a person using encrypted client.
because the encryption works in a way that it disguises the download..
rogers can't see that it's a torrent coming through but a html file or something other than torrent thus it works but only with encrypted clients.. BITCOMET is the only client that uses encryption at the moment. |
