Blocking p2p traffic on network
Hi Everyone and thank you for taking a look.
I work on a road project in a rural area here in SL and we have very limited internet connectivity in my office of just 120gb package per month.
but here other employees are using this to download torrents and they have already eaten up 70gb on this month's package. so my bosses are asking me to control the traffic.
so heres the situation, we have setup a network using dhcp and this router (Tplink TD-W8950ND) doent have QOS settings to block incoming ports but to block outgoing traffic from ports(I really hope of blocking p2p ports, thats why I mentioned about port blocking).
I have a computer with administrative rights connected to the router directly and some of those other computers are connected as well with administrative rights. so we cant disconnect them by force as it would cost some complications.
so in short, what I wanna do is to block all the incoming p2p traffic on the network so we may save some bandwidth and data for office use. how can I do this on this situation?
(note: ipcop or anything requires to use a whole separate computer to setup a firewall or something like that isn't an option here. )
Thank You very much and any help is greatly appreciated :)
