Computing Services are trialling FreeWire IPTV at the moment. But they may decide to charge for it next year (this has not been decided yet, as far as I know).

Also, you do technically need a TV license. As much as the TV license is a rip-off for students, I'm not one to promote illegal activities :wink:

Speaking of bypassing Hallnet filters, I wonder If it would be possible to SSH Tunnel out :tongue:

. But I bet that's been prevented. :tongue:

Of course it is... firewall piercing can always be accomplished from inside a network, no matter what.

DONT DO THAT... They'd start sending threatening letters to EarlFuzz, The Student Room, The Internet.

Come on, they try to get money out of the rest of us :biggrin:

Isn't MSN's file transfer thingy supposed to make a direct connection to the recipient's computer? So the file transfers would be as fast as the network allowed?

As far as I'm aware, the old windows messenger attempts to do this, whilst the new windows live messenger connects you both to a server to upload/download.

Therefore if you want network speed transfer, the sender must use windows messenger :biggrin:

(primary protocol is the senders)

I've never got my head round using that...I get stuck thinking about the command, decide one day maybe I should learn, oh know it's quicker to just do it the GUI way everyone else does :rolleyes:

My MSN transfer speed to people outside uni has definitely improved recently too. Havn't had any problems with HallNet at all either
