<p>im not sure if this is just my doomr but my internet is very slow.. like dial up speed maybe. anyone on campus noticing this? if not i will ask front office</p>

2

<p>mine goes quick..........except for a couple of web pages that take forever to load!!!</p>

3

<p>yeah like some pages stall to a dial up speed. are they doing maintenance or is this normal.</p>

4

<p>mines slow too</p>

5

<p>mine is so slowwwwwww. it was much faster last year... dont know what's going on =(</p>

6

<p>My connection was dial-up slow until about 2:00 AM. Someone must have been quite an eager downloader... or maybe it's due to everyone in the dorms downloading STCPM and Sophos Anti-Virus repeatedly over the day...</p>

7

<p>yea sometimes i get pages fast but its really inconsistent. =/</p>

8

<p>yeah and they blocked the port I2hub uses, so thats gone now :(:(</p>

9

<p>Clever bastards... :rolleyes:</p>

10

<p>so does the itunes file sharing thing not work anymore? and yeah my internet's friggin slow</p>

11

<p>Mine is (as otehrs have said) inconsistent. But at least it's working now!</p>

12

<p>can we download sophos before we move in?</p>

13

<p>Nope... the Sophos download is only available to a UCLA IP address.</p>

14

<p>what do u mean they blocked the i2 hub? like they shut it down? aww</p>

15

<p>Actually, you can download Sophos before moving in. I've had it since early this summer. To download it off the BOL site (<a href="http://www.bol.ucla.edu/software/)%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.bol.ucla.edu/software/)&lt;/a>, all you have to do is configure your computer to access the UCLA proxy server (<a href="http://www.bol.ucla.edu/services/proxy/%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.bol.ucla.edu/services/proxy/&lt;/a&gt;) and you can download any of the software at home or anywhere else.</p>

<p>*Clever bastards... *</p>

<p>haha yep - don't worry, though, there are always ways around such things. :)</p>

17

<p>the new i2hub beta edition let's you change the port numbers.</p>

18

<p>oh reeeeeeally - so does it work when you change the port benedict?</p>

19

<p>actually...it kinda works and kinda doesn't work. I get access to the i2hub irc chat thing, but I can't search for anything at all. I see i2users in the chat.</p>

<p>My computer is running slower then normal since I got it here. I'm using both Sophos (I guess STC did not like Etrust) as well as there Spy Sweeper program. One of these is appearing to be a resource hog. I'm hoping that it's Spy sweeper, since I can remove that one.</p>
