Re: Cable modem at college?

I mean plug a cable modem into the dorm room's coax port, but the cable modem is registered to a address/billed to a address near by but off the campus. Usually CMTSes dont care/cant care about the actual location of the cable modem on the network. So register a modem at a frat house off campus, then bring it to your dorm, plug in, and see if it works. Its a long shot but about the only thing you can try except for long range WIFI with a very high DB directional antenna.

Also you can use a VPN to get off the campus, or atleast campus IT cant say you P2Ped, only that you make 100s of gigs of encrypted VPN traffic.

That would only work if the cable system in the dorm building was directly connected to the same provider as the off campus residence. My experiences has shown usually this is not the case.

Really there are more important things for you to be doing that trying to subvert the university's net connection and getting your own. Downloading a bunch of illegal stuff is illegal, why waste your time.

You should put all that energy into studying and getting laid.
