We are looking at upgrading our Internet bandwidth to 500MB up and 500MB down. We will be expanding our media presentations in the next year and this service is hosted. Our marketing department is also redesigning our website to offer more rich content. All of this will increase our bandwidth needs. As far as filtering, we currently do content filtering use categories and also manual url filtering. We started looking at these devices because of the application control. We want to be able to say that "Marketing" can post to facebook but "Cafeteria" can not. Rhonda
