Uh, not all P2P is illegal. Only if its illegal files.

 

at least on optimum this is how they put it:

Optimum Online:

1. Users may not run any type of server on the system. This includes but is not limited to FTP, IRC, SMTP, POP, HTTP, SOCKS, SQUID, DNS or any multi-user forums;

even if it doesn't specifically state it, P2P is setting up server, so it can fall under this.


I think comcast just states a data limit, but I wouldn't be surprised if they had that kind of clause too

 

Ok here's one possible solution: check the default IP addresses of the router and modem.

I had this problem hooking up a router to my gf's AT&T DSL: the modem was 192.168.1.100 and the router was 192.168.1.1. That third space has to be different for each otherwise you get a conflict.

I went in to the router config and changed that third space to 192.168.(anything that's not 1).1 and that fixed the problem.

 

i just restarted the modem and router and it works

 

Either side could defend it. The IP could say oh its client server. Users could say no its peer to peer. Nobody is a server. Everyone is a peer node. P2P isn't 'client' 'server'. Except at the same time it is.
