Re: Redundant Internet Connection

We don't use redundancy, but I love our provider - Fastmetrics. They =
are a smaller company and have incredible technicians. Our school is =
out in the "boondocks" and we still have up time of 99.9% with rarely =
any slow downs.

Hello all,

=20

We currently have 2 bonded T-1 lines for all our Internet connectivity.
Our ISP is XO Communications and they purchase the lines from Verizon.
Sometimes the connection is good and sometimes not. Therefore we are
looking for either an upgrade from XO, a different provider or a second
source to use simultaneously.=20

=20

Is anyone out there using two or more sources for their Internet
connection? If so, are you using it for speed, redundancy or some other
reason.=20

Thanks,

Henry
