Kazaa Lite and the College Network ;)
Okay, as Im sure you all know, many schools block or restrict the speeds of Kazaa on school networks.
I can connect to Kazaa (though it takes a few minutes), then the searching goes rather fast, but when it comes to downloading - my dial up is faster. I found in the Kazaa Lite options where you can change the "incoming port" but that doesn't seem to help anything, even when I set it to 80.
Basically, I was just wondering what my other options are. I have a LinkSys EtherFast Cable / DSL Router (Model BEFSR41) with 4 ports, which I currently use to be able to use two computers in my room off one line. The reason for the Router instead of the hub is because the school activates the line for one MAC address and one MAC only - I turned in my routers MAC to the school.
Thanks for any help.
ps. I talked to the network admin down in the lab where they manage all of this. He said for the size of the school we have more than enough bandwidth and he didn't see a problem with file sharing - it's just something he was asked to do.
