TO NeilJ/ anyone else whos good with computers :) - Clearwire Broadband HI there. I am currently with Clearwire as well. But can not do the port forwarding to download from Limewire (paid account) and UTorrent. The p2p companys say i have to set the router to port forwarding but when i contacted Clearwire about this they said;
"Peer to Peer (P2P) applications treat your computer as both
‘client’ and ‘server’ meaning any information you
download to your computer using a P2P application, is then available for
upload. Once you have installed the application your computer can act as a
server and information is continuously uploaded from it, through our network.
This is in direct contravention to the Clearwire terms of service.
Section 10 of your terms of service state that you may not use the service or
take any action that will result in excessive consumption or utilization of
Clearwire’s network resources. Such prohibited actions include but are
not limited to: using the service to host a web server, continuously uploading
or downloading streaming video or audio, or continuous FTP uploading or
downloading."
Which means in Laymans terms - No we wont let you!-
would you have any idea how i would do this anyway because it seems that you are able to do it. I have the exact same router as you and use a 2Mbs speed.
Thanks NeilJ-- or anyone else who can answer this. |
