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?

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.

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!!!
