Oddly enough, there was a post to misc () openbsd org from a guy who said he found a way to treble his upload speed on his cable modem by proxy arp'ing to the mac address of his cable modem. I don't know how well that would work with different providers, but if someone hacks together a little windows utility to sniff out the arp of the cable modem, and set windows to start proxying it automatically, that would seem likely to regress cable modem back into the good ol' (or bad ol') days of near-unlimited bandwidth. Does anyone know the likelihood of this actually working? jeff On Thu, Feb 03, 2000 at 10:05:34PM +0000, David aka SpanskA wrote:
Hi, I was looking at ARP spoofing postings for a while and I was wondering if it was possible to permanently fool some hubs or routers. My ISP (Cablevision) is using some kind of system to know how much I'm uploading and downloading. I succesfully did it one time with a little prog called "changemac". If you wanna look at it just go to packetstorm archive. Unfortunately, the last month I checked the data report I could see that my ISP was able to know (again!) how much I was downloading and uploading. Is this a bug with some kind of hardware or with ARP protocol? Sorry for my English mistakes...
