My university network has banned me for 1 week. I still have access obviously from university wireless but not from my dorm room.

Is there any way to use a PPS or any proxy settings to allow me to bypass their block? I think They have blocked my ethernet port and not my hardware address.


Any help is appreciated. (see picture attached)

Better question is why?
If you are adventurous, you can use ifconfig (in terminal) to change your MAC address.

Sorry, but there are many ways you can expand your mind outside of hacking. :rolleyes: Hopefully 4 years at University will suit you well.

To bypass that, I suggest you google for it because there is a way.

Agreed. BUT, here's a counter-argument. What if he's a CS/IT major? Then we would actually be helping him with University. ;)

Sorry, but what a load of horse ****! "Grow in knowledge"... LMAO.

If you wish to steal that's totally fine and up to you (most of us have done it), but please, don't lie to yourself under that entirely false line of BS. Be honest enough to at least admit what you're doing -- stealing because you're too cheap and/or can't be bothered to buy whatever it is you're pirating.

That line is such a typical, arrogant, obnoxious thing I'd expect a college age kid to say. LOL. :rolleyes:

Good luck.

um who are you again? the university has rules that you agreed to and you broke them. you deserve whatever punishment you get as you knew what you were doing and that it was against that agreement

we wont help as well as these are the rules for this forum. get used to it
 
I work at a liberal arts college and we often deal with these types of students (though typically not me directly). It's kinda funny/comforting that it goes on elsewhere. :D

I just read the forum rules and I don't see anything that says this post is illegal. If you don't want to help the poster, fine, but it seems like a borderline case to me, and the forum rules don't prohibit it.
 
To be honest, you are asking for a lot to get out of a punishment that it appears that you clearly deserved. Just take the punishment and deal with it, it appears that you clearly violated the rules that you agreed to and got punished for doing so. Now if it were a misunderstanding, then plead your case with the school's IT department.

Gaining unauthorized access to a private network, especially a state-supported university's network, is illegal and punishable both by the state and federal government as a cyber crime. Posting a thread and asking for assistance to commit a crime is a violation of forum rules and also involves interstate use of the internet, which falls into the jurisdiction of the FBI.
