    As a customer that has their own UniFi Security Gateway and also ran services from home during the old BigPond Cable days, everything that Nath has said is correct.

    Back in the 90’s BigPond used to do everything possible to prevent us from running our own unmetered file sharing network. We had a set of relays and proxies which meant that we were able to share files with other BigPond users, bypassing the billing system. I am sure that the Management at BigPond Cable hated this while the Technicians (who also had BigPond Cable) enabled it.
