“we have blocked P2P on some of our servers as per changing Global Web Policy. We don’t allow p2p/filesharing where it’s illegal by law named United Kingdom (UK) , United States (US), Canada, Australia etc.”
Can you provide a full list of blocked servers.
Also, can you provide some info on how they are blocked? Do you block protocols, do you block P2P client names?
I am also curious how my ISP can block P2P activity? Do they block the protocols, block by P2P client software?
Thanks
Yes, P2P is allowed in Russia.
Let us know if you have further questions, thanks!
Hi,

How can I use P2P with dedicated IP. I mean i am from mainland china, technical support team suggested me to switch on Singapore server and that is working fine. But i have data on my Torrent which is unable to download i.e, UTORRENT is not getting speed, even i changed to AUTO from the Protocols section. What should i do in this regards?
Thanks for reaching out. If you want to do file sharing then you may connect to any of the above mentioned country server as P2P is only allowed in these countries.
Feel free to contact us if you still have any question or confusion!
So in short if I wanted to download something over Vuze from a torrent site and I live in the United States I would have to connect to the bahamas to do so and I would not be able to torrent on any server located in the United States?
How can be Germany’s server on allowed server list, since they have one of the most strict anti-pirate, anti-P2P policy in the world? If they catch you (and many has already been catch, Germany works really intensive on that), the fines are so high, that you must take a loan from the bank.

Hi,
Thanks for your comments. You can surely try with PPTP that might work, if it does not I would also advice you to try with different torrent clients.
Do let me know if your problem is solved or not.
I will be waiting for your precious response.
Hi Vincent,
I am sorry for the inconvenience. In this case there are usually two problems Protocol and Torrent client. So, I would suggest you to first change your protocol, you can try with PPTP, If this does not work then you can change your torrent client and most probably that would work.
In case, you still face same issue, kindly let me know then I would assist you accordingly!
