The other day at work, I thought I would see how steam run on my work computer. Well, my ports were all blocked by the network except the normal 80, 22, 21 etc. I then thought maybe I could simply tunnel my traffic through my SSH connection
Before we get anywhere, you NEED access to some kind of SSH. I have DD-WRT running on my home router which gives you the ability to login via SSH, I won’t get into that. You can google how to setup an SSH session. Also you will need admin access on the machine your trying to run steam on.
