Anyone know where I could find drivers for a.......Gateway Server. I know I
hate saying it but I need a Network Card driver for this and I don't know what
it is. Also since MPC is no longer supporting anything I can't get to their
website.

Ok. Well I am trying to convince our school now to get a second line. So
anyway how do you guys get your second line provided? Do you have fiber coming
to the buildings from your local school district so how is your brought to you?
We have Mediacom and Iowa Telecom in Emmetsburg but Mediacom said fiber is how
they would do it for us. I haven't contacted Iowa Telecom yet. And also what
is a monthly payment you pay to them if you don't mind me asking. And what
speeds are you getting?
Thanks

For those of you with the 3060 and NOT on enhanced OS:If you bought your
SonicWall from Rik's make sure you talk with them before you upgrade to the
3060 enhanced. I didn't know that when SH bought their 3060 they also bought
the upgrade to enhanced, so I didn't have to pay for the upgrade we already had
it.

Jeremy,
Sounds awesome! The Sonicwall we own is rated for home and small business and
is beginning to show its age and is bottle necking our internet at different
time of the day when the firewall CPU maxes out at 100%. Our need for more
internet increases yearly as more of the educational process moves to the
internet. We are finally moving toward providing remote access to teachers
and are looking at ways to extend the campus for students.
Add to that ICN internet outages and the whole mess begins to hamper the
educational process.
Thanks,
Tony Richardson,

Everyone-
We are running a Sonicwall 3060 with enhanced firmware, and have
had a secondary Internet connection for 3 or 4 years now. We currently
have a 5MB Ethernet connection from the ICN, as well as a 5MB Ethernet
connection from our local phone company. Other than Lance's note about
have to restart the Sonicwall to get back to full operating strength on
both connections, it is awesome. You never even know when one link goes
down, as the Sonicwall just routes everything out the other link. We
will never go back to having one single connection.
The only other thing to think about, in our configuration, and
end user can really only burst into a 5MB connection, since they are 2
different connections, but depending on the situation, that works
better.
We originally were doing this on our Fortigate, but at that time
it would not allow for load balancing over the links. Scott and I have
had those discussions, so I don't know if that problem has been
rectified or not. That was the reason we moved to a Sonicwall 3060.
If anyone need any more information, ask away. Otherwise, happy
Easter everyone!!!
Jeremy

With this mornings outage it got me thinking. OUr ICN connection is
usually quite sound, but do any districts have a secondary connection
to the internet?
