Tiny little problem...

Recommended Posts

My server provider has blocked the game. I can get into the test server, I just cannot get into the main server. They (University) has been cutting down on use for many things, such as music downloads, porno, etc and feels that EL falls along with that apparently. And seeing that I am a student (and employee), I have no grounds for an appeal. I have talked to Ent and he stated that there is a way to get around the normal way we all log in and for me to be able to get back on line. Although this way is rather complicated. If any of you happen to know a way, please help me out, as I cannot come back without some help. I run Windows XP.

 

Thanks.

do you have control of another computer outside their firewall? if so, using that one as a proxy should do the trick... you set your computer to connect to that one as the server, port 80, and then that one connects through to EL port 2k... it's less complicated than it sounds if you can download the right stuff (or better yet, set up firewall rules on *nix)

being able to authenticate it would be handy, but not so simple... the other approach to that is getting the IP of the proxy banned first and having your char on the whitelist, then other people who find your proxy won't be able to (ab)use it
