Re: Transparent Proxy Question...

Why?, ntl broadcast the public IP using either of the two variables I have just listed....if the remote network can't be configured to deal with various transport methods, why contact ntl when they have done nothing wrong??
Because I've been told that if NTL are not aware of the many proxy related problems/faults/oddities then they cannot fix them - I'm aware that NTL cannot fix this one themselves, but if enough people make them aware of it then they can perhaps put some pressure on Rapidshare (many have tried emailing rapidshare about proxies - they just answer that you need a pay account - fair enough, but other ISP's that don't use proxies can get the stuff for free)

Its just another example of NTL's proxies causing problems that wouldn't affect about 98% of other ISPs' in the same way.

It shouldn't be up to individual users to have to contact site owners to change their coding, virtually every other ISP works fine with Rapidshare, because they don't use proxies.
