bypassing torrent throttling? in TekSavvy http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22650022 en Sun, 22 Nov 2009 23:28:43 EDT Sun, 22 Nov 2009 23:28:43 EDT Re: bypassing torrent throttling? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22655114 eots : Looks like the throttle is off in my area tonight, I'm averaging over 300 kB/s without MLPPP.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22655114 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 20:28:21 EDT Re: bypassing torrent throttling? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22654653 l0thar : Dave, you are right on.

Bell could develop the sniffing capability to identify p2p traffic headers inside a mlppp stream. Then their fscked DPI machines could do their lame and obscene manipulation in the data to slow it down, like they do to regular ppp connections.

It's unfortunate that BCE has chosen this path of minimizing investment, drop customer and technical support to the bare minimum, and generally nickel and dime their customers (including us, third party wholesaler dsl clients).

I would bet they HATE the idea of bonding two or more lines together (without even mlppp involved) - that allows people to get 10 to 12 Mb/s synch, 1.6 Mb/s upload, and a 400 GB a month or larger monthly bandwidth, depending on who they got their service from.

This at a much lower cost, with much less restrictions than Bell's own ADSL+ 10 Mb/s or higher services.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22654653 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 17:45:14 EDT Re: bypassing torrent throttling? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22653339 rhl2000 :

So, what is it intended for now then?

MLPPP itself was originally intended for combining two or more DSL enabled phone lines into one FAT FAST virtual line.

At least until the evil overlord BELL chooses and implements a way to selectively throttle the MLPPP users here and at a few other DSL ISPs who share part of their network, as does TSI.

AFAIK, Bell of course does not offer MLPPP to their direct subscribers such as Sympatico customers.

MLPPP itself was originally intended for combining two or more DSL enabled phone lines into one FAT FAST virtual line.

The throttle beating effect was just a bonus, and TSI themselves will admit that things could change.

After all, this IS Bell we're talking about....

So to recap:

-Get TSI internet.

-Inform TSI you want MLPPP access, which they will provide you with a dedicated login.

-Setup up single or mulit-line MLPPP through windows, WRT54GL, ASUS WL500 G series, or virtual box models discussed above.

Reclaim your internet!

There are different ways to do mlppp. Any decent dsl modem will work, popular models here include the Speedtouch 516 or 546 series, as well as the cheaper TP-Link clones. 2Wire refurbished modems can be had as well, and personally I believe are the best for long lines with higher attenuations.

To get an mlppp connection you will need to use one of these options :

- a dedicated router, a popular model being the Linksys WRT54GL, with a custom Tomato/mlppp firmware.

- or running VirtualBox and the Zeroshell linux package on it, this runs in your windows machine.

- or running Window's own multilink ppp capability, although you must make sure a decent firewall is protecting your system in this case.

The router option is a low cost and effective solution, which can provide mlppp for your whole home network at once. Spend the $60 or less for the router, install the firmware and you are done.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22650095 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 14:35:45 EDT bypassing torrent throttling? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22650022 TBIT : Allo, I have finally bitten the lazy bullet and canceled my service with PathComm. I could live with the prime time throttling of torrents but the daily interruptions and slow HTTP traffic was a pain.

Now, moving over to TekSavvy, I could have sworn I saw a sticky post about suggested router/modems and method of bypassing the usual throttling. Was I nuts? Was it on another popular DSL forum? I remember it had a post by a TekSavvy employee with a list of suggested modems and the method to bypass throttling.

I did browse all three pages of headers and didn't see it. Anyone care to point me in the right direction?

TBIT :hmm:]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22650022 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 14:16:55 EDT
