I have a T1 line that I want to share wirelessly with my neighbors. I have checked with my provider and I won't be breaking any of their policies in doing this. My concern is with p2p file sharing. I want my neighbors to be able to use my line so we can share video files we edit and save them from paying for broadband......but I don't want one of their kids sharing music on my connection. How can I, with the existing hardware I have, make certain that no filesharing is being done?
I have a Linksys WRT54G. Clients will be using some sort of Linksys 802.11g NIC. I would like to block all outgoing traffic with the exception of needed ports, like HTTP, HTTPS, POP, SMTP, DNS, etc..... but I don't see that you can do this with the Linksys.
They have young kids in the house, and I know for a fact that IF they had a broadband connection that they would start using P2P software.
I'd also like to be able to monitor the outgoing bandwidth so that if a certain amount of upstream was used, I'd get an email so I could look in to it further......to make certain that they somehow aren't file sharing.
I'm partially paranoid about the RIAA suing me, but more important is I don't want them stealing music.
Thanks for any help in advance.
