I am not totally set upon using bittorrent as my P2P client. However, I would hate to abandon it.
I am at a university now, with a ridiculously fast connection, but I can not find a single port that is open. I have tried all the normal ones, random ones, high, small, everything. the uTorrent port checker always comes back as being blocked. Is there any way to scan for any open ports? I mean, I find it hard to believe that every port is somehow blocked.

I have looked into services such as SSH and proxies, but they all need a port to forward through. What would be my best option at this point?

when it's a green tick, it's good. i don't have port open when i test it but i got a green tick.

i don't have a green anything. i'm using utorrent, and it has the little warning saying that i might be behind a firewall. using bittornado gives me the same thing.
