But - what I would have asked them to do, which would have been cheaper and less hassle for you, is to assign you ONE IP, and disable NAT on your modem. This would then behave identically to a domestic connection, and you could configure your wireless router in exactly the same way as you would for a domestic connection - using port forwarding on the router to get BitTorrent and your games working.
Oh trust me Jaycee, this is what I tried first, the response at TS; Im sorry sir, i understand that you cannot access the internet... NO, my ports are being blocked; So you require a new modem? NO!!! my ports are being blocked by you, can you please turn NAT mode OFF; Im sorry sir, I cannot understand what you are saying; Dont worry, I'll speak to some1 with half a brain cell, so I called up retentions as I really DID wanna leave, I mean I STILL havent recieved any sort of welcome letter or pack with user details & email addresses on, no Literature at all, such as the welcome pack you get with normal services, so it was retentions that put me forward, as usual, Indian Tech support -10!
