“Essentially bandwidth is the
amount of people that can connect
to the Internet at the same time and
do whatever they want to do,” said
Craig Gray, director of information
services and technology.
Before the increase, all Internet
traffic that took place on campus
was directed through one piece of
equipment.
Students and faculty
shared the university’s 43 megabits
of bandwidth.
Susan “Billie” Martelly, a sophomore computer information systems major, said that although her
dorm, Sharp Hall, has Ethernet capabilities, the Internet connection
last semester was not very good.
The recent bandwidth increase was
very necessary, she said.
