Using torrents at a hotel

Hotel I am at, I did a scan to see if I could find a port for utorrent so I could grab a torrent. My results came up with :

GRC Port Authority Report created on UTC: 2006-07-19 at 04:36:30

Results from scan of ports: 0-1055

0 Ports Open
0 Ports Closed
1056 Ports Stealth
---------------------
1056 Ports Tested

ALL PORTS tested were found to be: STEALTH.

TruStealth: PASSED - ALL tested ports were STEALTH,
- NO unsolicited packets were received,
- NO Ping reply (ICMP Echo) was received.

Does this mean there is no way to get a torrent effectively from their wired network?

That's what it means.
 
It means that the well known ports are closed, it says nothing about the 63k other ones. But that's irrelevant because you're probably behind a nat which means they'd have to manually forward a port to you which I doubt they'd be willing to do. Is there not some way you can get your pron on the tv?
