EVE General Discussion

Well if getting ganked in your hulk isnt enough my IT department at work has now blocked Eveonline websites. Does anyone know any workarounds to access websites if they are blocked by yout IT department. The website blocked is Eveonline.com but I still can acess the fforums and other sites like battleclinic. I believe I can access the forums because they begin with //forums.eveonline but the main website forget about it.

4G is your friend.

If eveonline.com used a dedicated IP address instead of a shared one, you'd probably be able to access the site just by typing it's IP address into the address bar of your browser. Unfortunatley this isn't the case (I tried).

You could try a web-based proxy, but they'd probably start blocking those too eventually. The way I see it is that your employers wouldn't have blocked Eve without a good reason, i.e. they don't want you on there during work hours. Maybe you should just accept that?

By work do you mean school???

If any employee was on eveonline.com I think most boss's would jsut fire thier ass not block th website!


Workaround - DO SOME WORK!

Or get a phone/pad to use on the wifi connection and access what ever you want

Bribe one of the router dudes to create you a tunnel?

As for reconfiguring your machine with a portable proxy, our IT guys have disabled any such user capability. We have a "standardized desk top" and cannot even create shortcuts, outr browsers won't remember passwords, etc, etc.. Network config or rooting in any form is simply not possible. They also key off the ARP cache to block traffic. Not only that, all "suspect" traffic is logged in an "eveil no good lazy worker using the Internet" file. People have been fired for creative network config.

Now, I have VPN access from home and often work from there. Then I can have my evil semi-AFK mining ops ongoing while I field calls and resolve problems ... Ask for VPN so you can "work" from home, mine in EvE and drink beer, all at the same time.

Sounds like where I use to work at. Even me being an administrator, I didnt have access to make shortcuts and stuff... how does that make any sense?? Only the actual programmers could make changes like that. It sucked, we would go run tickets to find out we have to tell them, sorry we cant do that, the programmers do... Made us look like incompetent idiots...
