Can't download at school.
ive noticed that when im at school and want to play tf2 (dont ask how i play at school ) none of the maps that i dont have already download. ive found out that my school blocks the server that the maps are on. is there a way this can be changed like switch the ip group to something other than "GAMES"?

Re: Can't download at school.
The download site is http://gaming.calculatedchaos.com/tf/maps.
I have it setup to only allow connections from the game server on the game port to try an limit people from hitting my server and downloading all the maps. I already serve 100GB+ worth of maps in a good month.
I don't know how your school would be blocking it since it looks like any old folder on a website. If I could figure out how to fix it for you i would but I don't know how I am going to be able to narrow it down since I can't access your schools proxy. Any of you network admins want to give me some help?

Re: Can't download at school.
I have a similar issue at work, where-in I can access this site and tf2.com but not l4d.com or any other "Game" website.
Give the hardest job to the laziest person, and they will find the easiest way to do it.
