Don't block p2p unless you do disclose it up front and straight out to your 
customers. That what was Comcast got in big problems with FCC a year ago 
because they throttled it to point of unusable and they got slapped on the 
fingers big time. 

But if you do and you are masquerading you traffic you have to create mangle 
rules to catch properly the p2p traffic. If you don't then many p2p apps will 
swap to use port 80 for traffic and if you do QoS on port 80 then you are 
effectively helping it out instead of hindering it and would be why you see 
this problem with port 80 traffic.

Subject: [WISPA] p2p blocking, throttling, mikrotik

When I try and block ptp traffic through my mikrotik router
customers call in telling us some web pages load some don't.
Myspace, yahoo, etc.

Anyone know how to block or throttle p2p without affecting
regular web traffic?
