I've spent the last 2 days in the dark up here in Auckland as the power was cut during the storm.  The power has now finally been restored, so I booted up the server and queued up some torrents...nothing is working WTF? (surfing and general internet use is fine though).  So I run through all the basic checks: kill/restart software, firewalls, switches etc but the dam torrents wont kick off? My setup just doesn't change, it's dedicated Linux server housed in the garage. So I try different P2P NAT ports in desperation still nothing!  Eventually I think the worst of my ISP and obfuscate my P2P protocol headers - WAMMO immediately everything starts working fine !$@#!$##%^

I have Orcon's Unlimited plan, at least Unlimited until they decide it's not, or maybe they thought the storm the other day was a massive natural disaster and they needed to free up some bandwidth?

Anyone else experienced this?
