    Default How to bypass firewall ?


    I'm an engineering student and our college has provided laptops for all of us. The entire college has wi-fi connectivity, but the sad part is that they have blocked many sites. We can't access sites like Orkut, Facebook, video game sites or music sites. Can you suggest methods to bypass their firewall? Their firewall is the SONIC-WEB firewall system. Please help!

    There are ways to bypass firewalls using proxy servers, but this is not advisable. Your passwords and other data can easily be stored and seen by others, not to mention the increased susceptibility of attack. Your college has very good reason to block those sites and downloads- to enable sufficient bandwidth and internet speeds for all. If just a few people start downloading large files, the entire bandwidth can get choked, and this is not in the interest of the community.

    If you need to access some sites or download content, it might be a good idea to get a high speed data card like the Reliance Netconnect Broadband +. Wireless broadband from Reliance is currently available in 35 cities; do check if your city is covered by visiting their website first.
