    Hi all,

    I live in a university halls of residence. The uni has a 100mb line so the connection was really fast in my room. But unfortunately the uni has restricted the bandwidth in the halls of residence to a 10mb line because students were using too much bandwidth and causing problems for the uni. Now I cant even have a conversation on skype or browse web pages because the line is so slow. Now i think other students have found a way around this bandwidth restriction .. and my question is do ye guys have any advice on how I could find a way around it?

    thanks

    Not downloading or causing problems .. just a victim of other peoples bad habits.
