Re: CRTC ruling coming Thursday Nov 20

Why don't the ISPs just give users hardware encryption boxes to put after the DSL modem, and VPN all traffic as a single UDP (or TCP) stream back to their datacenter then decrypt it and de VPN it and continue it on its way? Think of the VPN as a value added service. Bell can't DPI encrypted traffic.

The hardware would not be cheap.

Sounds like you can get 24 mbitps using blowfish on a wrt54g, more than enough for ADSL. A Linksys with custom firmware turning it into a VPN/hardware encryption device. Bell can't DPI the traffic then, except traffic shape the 1 unknown VPN connection through packetloss which is a natural speed limiter. VPNs are unlikely to be subject to DPI because of corporate users complaining. Also one of the congestion arguments (a bunch of TCP connections from a p2p user will squeeze the 1 TCP connection by a HTTP user, since TCP tends to balance out each connection to an equal share of the media/pipe).
