    Nay. The use of p2p sharing, internet gaming and the like is blocked by UCD. I hear that there is a network that gets around this, but from what I was told if you're caught on it you'll be banned from the UCD network.

    It is possible to play some VLAN trickery but you'll be disconnected pretty sharpish if you do.

    Is it a person or a computer which disconnects you?

    A person... some of the guys working in IT services are very good at spotting 'unusual' traffic patterns. And also a machine if you're causing enough trouble.

    eduram network (Exclusive to CSI and Daedlus buildings) has no ports blocked. You have to download a program and login with your UCD student login to use it. Which is probably used to stamp out illegal activity.
