I recently moved into a uni dormitory
How about, you ask them yourself.
Love MAM, but jfc is it stupid for people to have to ask for permission to use a new network just to browse a forum.
VPN to back home. Even better, torrent and run your whole base of operations at home, and remote in + plainly transfer files to your local devices.
When I lived in a dorm torrenting was specifically prohibited. You had to pay for your own separate connection to torrent.
On MAM? Probably not. From the dorm? Most likely yes.
Just ask the staff for permission.
The problem that you will have is that there may be other students using the same IP address that could cause a problem. Let the staff know in advance. You could also get in trouble with the University for torrenting using their IP address.
Just throwing a suggestion out there, if you Rent a seed box they will see for you
Not 100% sure so I won’t say yes or no, but if it isn’t allowed, consider getting a VPN with a dedicated IP and using that.
Or, if you’re able to and have a NAS or something similar at home that’s always running, set up a VPN there or use Tailscale which is easy as hell to set up. When you use Tailscale to connect to your NAS at home, select your NAS as the exit node and your device that’s connected to dorm wifi will use your home IP address. This is what I do whenever I’m on vacation or something.
If someone else uses, yes. They only accept one account on an IP address. You can use Private VPN but first inform Staff about it.
Maybe cannot ask now because already moved into the dorm. Should have asked before moving into the dorm.
that’s why students hide it
