looking for a proxy server that can run runescape

[glitzern]

hey guys

 

 

my university blocks runescape so i need a proxy to run it, the problem is, the few proxy websites that aren't blocked can't run the game! even if i make sure the proxy allows java, when i try to start the game i get a 404.

 

typing runescape proxy on google nets me a result for a page but i don't know if it's legit (runescape-proxy.com)

 

 

if anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated

Universities block RS? D-:

 

Give that site a go, it looks very interesting and I'm trying it out now. Use a new character or whatever, so you can't get hacked.

 

EDIT: Much to my dissapointment, despite initially loading the game code:

 

An error occurred
Error_game_js5connect - Unable to connect to update server.

RuneScape was unable to connect to the update server. This is most likely caused by a firewall blocking the connection.

To resolve this:

   * If you have firewall or security software installed, they can often block RuneScape from accessing its servers. Please ensure that RuneScape/Java can connect to its servers on port 43594.
   * Note: Windows XP Service Pack 2 has built in firewall software. If, when loading RuneScape, this asks if you want to allow the connection, you need to say 'yes'.
   * If that doesn't help, then an external firewall may be causing the problem. Please ask your network adminstrator/ISP to open port 43594 for TCP traffic so that RuneScape and Java can run correctly.

If problems persist, please refer to the Technical FAQs, which can be found in the Customer Support section of our website.

Given that proxy owners can log traffic via their networks I would stay well away. Get yourself a 3g broadband dongle and use that instead of the uni network.

VPN is your best bet, get a linux computer and host at your home running OpenVPN Access Server (2 licenses free, 1 for you and 1 for your best mate). Or rent one if you dont have a leftover computer. I'm hosting a VPN at home, but i don't give out access to strangers, just people i know well on runescape.

 

It works flawlessly without any settings in software, and works with all data, games, music, torrents and p0rn if you are addicted. All traffic is encrypted so IT-masters can't know what you are doing.

 

Just ask me for advice if you need help.

If you can't be bothered to set up your own VPN, theres a free one called hotspotsheild. Not sure how trustworthy it is (i.e. I have no idea, I'm not saying it isn't), but its got good uptime and speedz.

Hotspotshield is trustworthy, but it is blocked almost everywhere. VPN's aren't blocked unless they are big commercial ones, and they won't get blocked unless you send so much data through it that the IT-masters gets alerted.
