Omfg! He Did It Again!

My dad is a computer freak...he know's everything...he's a firewall/IT specialist that works for some big company...and he just blocked RS with netgear fire wall...now everytime i try to get on there...in big red letters it says "WEBSITE BLOCKED BY NETGEAR FIREWALL"...Anybody know how to get mast this??!

 

hmm.. is netgear a router maybe u can maybe try accessing it look in your user manuals there should be an address that they provide you to connect to router website or just reset your router,You must have admin privilleges to access it.

or maybe u can fool your internet by typing www.runescape.com. with a dot at the end it works for me at school lol so it should work for you.

 

im not sure if this works but i heard somethink about systems restore to about 1 day b4 he done it then it should go it might work :/

 

just access ur Router and allowed it, make sure when u play Rs when he's not around

 

Try downloading elite switch.

 

es wont work because its the rs homepage just takes off ads and takes you directly to the world

try using proxy? lol i duno or just hack his firewall and uninstall the shit

 

Yea it wont work

Best bet is just being a good boy and maybe he'll unblock

 

I don't know much about NeatGear Firewall. What if you boot in safemode, and try to connect in that (as the program won't initialize).

 

How laggy would RS be in safemode though?

 

Turn your hardware acceleration right down if your going to play RS in safemode. To turn hardware acceleration down, simply go to your desktop and enter properties. Once in properties click, settings, then click advanced. After your in advanced you'll see a "Troubleshoot" tab along the top. Click on it. Once in there, you will see an acceleration tab. Turn the tab right down to None.
This will not make RS lag free whilst in safe mode, but it will make it a lot better.

 

It all depends on how your dad put up the lock, as some said, try using a proxy, the client won't go thru the proxy so if your father didn't lock the 2 runescape ports you should be able to play (the client will connect to the chosen world site and thru other ports than the usual 80).
Another solution, try perhaps using their ipadress [64.37.71.203] .. who knows might work

 

If you need good proxies use Peace Fire. I still think that if worse comes to worse, safemode will work.

 

um, iono i can't afford shit like that but try www.proxywww.com

 

cant he just go to control panel and turn it off? thats what i do

 

he dosent need a proxy if hes got a router man

 

ok if your behind a router then find the router and look for the "Reset" button or if you cant find it or something similar pull the power cable (make sure nobody is surfing the internet so at night would be good) and wait for about 30 seconds then plug it back and hope your dad doesnt check the router regularly.

And for future reference you really need to specify how your network works (ie direct connection with a software firewall or your in a network with a router or some other networking hardware.)

 

What about ask him to unblock it... why did he block it in the first place?

 

System Restore would work teh best. Just saying....

 

System Restore may not work but try accessing your router and changing the settings.

 

If your dads a "firewall/IT specialist" theres not much that you can do other than hack his computer but i'm sure he'll notice. So my advice, Beg
