Just to let you know that an independent consultant has come in over and the network is going to be rebuilt provisionally going live on Tuesday.
To the end user (you in your room), this should allow ADSL speed to the internet. This is going to be done by allowing several blocks (e.g. Rootes A-D) a section of the bandwidth. This will remove the current port prioritisation that exists i.e. turning the network into a normal ISP.
Hope that helps.

I have noticed 29 subnets in the resnet. Unless they are also increasing the total external bandwidth significantly, dividing up the 60Mbit connection equally gives roughly a 2Mbit connection per 200 users. In theory that sounds worse, if one block cannot use spare bandwith in another. But seeing as there probably never is any unused bandwith...
Yup u're right
ITS: "Available Bandwidth increased to 80Mbps : an increase of 100% since the start of term"
So it started at 40Mbps went to 60 Mbps and now is at 80Mbps..
At least they've realized 40Mbps wasnt gonna give a decent service!! A thumbs up for ITS for getting that far.. now the question is whether they can move on and also realize their remaining mistakes!!
