DSL - There are things faster than Dial-up?
DSL (i.e. broadband) is coming to Camp Forest Springs!
This is a monumental event in the lives of our staff and work environment. Camp has shared up to now a dial-up connection with on average 38 computers. Plus we have 4 servers that each have there own bandwidth use for anti virus updates, Windows Updates, and retrieving and sending e-mail. It is amazing what you can get used to.
We hope to be updating and implementing this during the next 3 weeks (September 12 – 30, 2005). Couple of things have to be put in place before we can have full use of this faster connection. We have decided to go with a company called AIM (Advance Internet Management) to be our protection from the outside world and integrity with in. So this means configuring our network behind a firewall, configuring multiple levels of Active Directory, and rerouting/reconnecting our Exchange Server (AKA e-mail). I don’t know much in these areas but I’m sure I will be learning very quickly.
