Ruckus is legal so I'm sure your campus can't say much about it. What school are you at? May want to set up with a proxy if you're school is blocking that much stuff just from the start... |

Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego, California Post Number: 4495 Registered: Dec-06 | Schools and large businesses now all use front end internet filters like WebSense and EtherShield. Unless you are buddies with the IT guys or you have admin rights and access to the filter settings, you're SOL. And in most cases the filter controls are stashed in a standalone server that is not global. Have some friends load you up a couple DVD's of mp3's and then bump those down to your school comp. |

Port stealthing is one of them. |

Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rI compensate... Post Number: 8654 Registered: Jul-06 | Your best bet is getting access. It really wouldn't be all that hard if you really wanted to crack the system. If it's that worth it to you do a little research and you'll figure something out. |
