blocklist capability???

Post by robnitro »

Hi,
I have been using a block list for utorrent, and my former transmission torrent client on synology. Is there a way to use these blocklists on the router?

I have a buffalo g300nh- which has a lot of flash and ram to spare... just not sure how to do this.

Thanks in advance,
Robert

Use PeerBlock (New name for Peer Guardian) on the PC's themselves. Gives you to control the blocking better. Else you'll get a false positive block sometimes. And if it's on the router it a lot harder to bypass.

Thanks, yeah I have the blocklist setup through utorrent (and formerly through transmission when i had a linux nas box). However, I want to block it on the router for the other home users, who know little to nothing about p2p security.

Search the OPENWRT packages and see if any do what you want. You might have to play around with some stuff to see if it works with Gargoyle though.
