and staff use the computers for personal use on their own time (prep,
recess, lunch, after school, etc.). However, with applications and web
2.0 sites taking more and more bandwidth, I have a need for teachers to
stop streaming their radio station, stop watching the news videos, stop
checking their Facebook, stop shopping for a new pair of shoes, etc.
especially during school hours. I doubled the bandwidth this year from
one T1 to two T1s for about 300 computers, and there are times when max
bandwidth is being used for hours at a time, even though I know very few
if any students are using it at that time.
How anyone else had this problem? How have you dealt with it? =20
