302015 2004-12-11 09:54:00 I have just gone from dial-up to jetstream. I am sure i have seen some where that you can play on the jetstream game servers and it not affect you monthly download allowance. Also have they got Linux Distro's on these servers .

Please any help would be great and thanks in advance.

PS
I have done a search of PF1 and could not find the info i am after.

Simply replace your username with user@jetstreamgames.co.nz within your modem / router connection settings. Then connect with these settings.

I.e, if under your PAP settings in your ADSL router you had:

user: joe@bloggs.co.nz
pass: *****

replace it with

user: user@jetstreamgames.co.nz
pass: *****

The password need not change, so you can log onto jetstream games with your normal password.

When you connect with these settings, you will be able to access all jetstreamgames servers (and partners) as well as the ftp://ftp.jetstreamgames.co.nz and ftp://linux.jetstreamgames.co.nz sites.

Downloading speeds vary, some cases limit you to your plan speed, others to your line speed (mine limits me to line speed), and you're correct in that this doesn't count towards your monthly data usage.

Simply change the username back (and password if you changed it) to log in normally.

302019 2004-12-12 05:55:00 Nope, you can only connect to jetstreamgames and it's subdomains (gigs of gaming files and linux distros, hooray!) and the JSG servers. Wilky (776)

That would defeat the purpose of the realm.
