Hi guys,
pls can u help me block utorrent, because it’s consuming a lot of bandwith in our network..
Regards,
With torrents becoming more difficult to block with scripts, I have found the most effective solution is to contact the bill payer about excessive downloading, a lot of times they are unaware of this as one of their family is usually downloading torrents, failing that slow them down during peak usage hours, they have two options change their download times or find another internet service provider, another more bandwidth demanding is “Netflix” which a lot of customers do not realise streaming movies consumes bandwidth, once again communication with customers about bandwidth usage is helpful.
thanks for replying man, i appreciate it..
we’ll try like u said .. i guess they will not like it at all 
i believe you should able to limit they bandwidth by the queue scheduler…
or some radius manager server which can do such option as well…
/ip firewall layer7-protocol

So above ROS code will block utorrent traffic is that correct?
it appears it would and I guess you can adjust the times in the script?
there has not been much talk about appliances like Netequalizer in a long time
I mentioned in another post that I use a script available by a Mikrotik trainer
I prefer to control the torrents and the upload rather than block it
(I will get more phone calls and complaints if I block them)
Can you please refer me to the link available by mikrotik trainer?
Yes I would also rather control the torrent than block it. Have you done that before. If yes can you please send us the code to do so.

Ditto!
If anyone can point me in the right direction to the fabled script it would be great. I would rather not spend time developing and testing a solution if one can be purchased for a reasonable fee.
