connection bandwidth or your service provider's bandwidth. Once the
infrastructure gets updated with enough bandwidth, this kind of problem
should miraculously disappearMichael Dillon Voice: +1-604-549-1036
Hum, Thats a DS3 (Sprint) from HWB to an FDDI (NAP) to a DS3 (MCI) to WBN.
Sure sounds like a bandwidth problem...
There are others that will claim that the actual problem is one of resource
reservation and that the existing bandwidth ought to be able to handle the
level of use.
