I was a windows user on Comcast's network and until yesterday, my seeding capacity was ZERO...period...no seeding unless it was during the initial download. Yesterday I installed Ubuntu, dropped those bad, bad rst packets with the proper command and VOILA! I was seeding like crazy. So, if you wanna stick it to Comcast and everyone else using Sandvine - SWITCH TO LINUX OR MAC AND USE YOUR IP TABLES TO DROP THE FORGED RST PACKETS!!! It will fix your problem because now EVERYONE ELSE IS DROPPING THEIR PACKETS TOO!! So the packets get dropped from both sides and no rst is performed. JUST DO IT!! You'll be glad you did. I'll be happy to send you screen shots of two machines, side by side, one on windows and one on Linux...with the windows machine seeding to no one and the linux machine seeding like crazy. It really works! BELIEVE IT!
