THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR KINDNESS IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!!



Use a router that support Quality of Service and set the priority for Bittorrent to a suitable setting?

I hate to ask this, but what school are you and your roommate attending? Also what year are you?

fundamentalism, fundamentally wrong.

Wouldn't blocking ports 6881 thru 6999 be the most effective way to deal with the issue?

fundamentalism, fundamentally wrong.

Bittorrent ports can be changed easily.

How is that relevant to alt.internet.wireless?

Yrue, but I get the feeling neither of them here would think of that until you mentioned it

fundamentalism, fundamentally wrong.

Not, but one post directed at a particular person... I was just interest, grammer was shall we say poor and I was interested if this was typical of today's college student. This was not meant as an attack on this individual, just ideal curiosity that seemd harmless, until it appears it got your dander up.

fundamentalism, fundamentally wrong.

Precisely!

That information would have only been of value if the question had also contained the extra "and is your room mate female and hot?!"

How is your remark relevant to the post???

Rico, before you bash other people about how poor their "grammEr" is, how about you try to spell "grammAr" correctly? Your grammar and spelling is POOR as well. You should be ashamed of yourself. "I was just interest" huh??? You're such a hypocrite :)
