QUOTE(cherriedpie @ Sep 10 2010, 07:20 PM) Anybody know how's the internet in UK? My college uses JANET, and I know they don't allow P2P activity, so how do you guys survive without Bittorent? Is PPS considered a no-no as well? What's the use of hi-speed internet if you can't use it to the max. ;_; i've been downloading games n movies all through direct downloads hosted on websites like megaupload n the sort. so far so good. using HORNET in my uni. n i get good speeds too. about 1mb/s to 2mb/s compared to my msian screamyx connection which gives me 10kb-50kb/s This post has been edited by s3r^ph: Sep 11 2010, 12:30 AM

Would be very very sad if I don't get to use PPS. =( Thanks anyway.  not really. there r many websites hosting all these links n files. the one i used i can get almost anything torrentz websites have. but yea...this is gettin out of topic. ahaha

So mind enlightening me? Ty nah...u dun need to. i'm from manchester too. and last year the uni hall(grosvenor) gave me a lan cable. not sure about the other uni halls though. i did bring one along just in case. ended up having 2 lan cables.
