Can I use filesharing services with Hughes DirecWay service?

Filesharing services such as Gnutella, Bitorrent, eDonkey, and others consume a great deal of bandwidth, and can cause you to violate the Fair Access Policy. Therefore Hughes throttles all services using the common TCP and UDP port ranges used by such software. Filesharing services may function, but will be unreliable and slow. Customers are strongly advised not to use them.
