Avoid Packet Shaping

[almo136]

My ISP (Tisclai, UK) is blocking all p2p downloading during peak hours 5pm-11pm.

Is there any way to get around this? I have tried turning on encryption in utorrent but it hasn't helped.

I am still able to upload.

Try changing your port number to a much higher number. The default is 6886, I have mine at 16886, you could use 50000 or 60000. Force the encryption with uTorrent.

Try changing the port to 433 and see how you go.

Also force encryption in utorrent (make sure "allow incoming legacy connections" is ticked so you can still communicate with non-encrypted peers).
