Campus Bandwidth Upgrade Delayed

CenturyLink, our primary Internet service provider ran into issues today trying to perform our bandwidth upgrade. They are currently working to resolve the issue and we’ve pushed back our anticipated cut-over to tomorrow morning (Tuesday, 1/31). We will post more information as we receive it. Thank you for your patience, Computing Services

Bandwidth increase on Monday, 1/30 at 10:30 AM, possible slow Internet connections

Computing Services has been working for quite some time to finalize a major campus bandwidth increase. We have been notified by CenturyLink that the tentatively scheduled time for this increase is Monday, January 30th at 10:30 AM. We have taken the necessary steps to minimize impact to campus Internet services, but there is a chance that connections to the Internet will be slow during this time for roughly an hour as the new link and service are fully implemented. This is due to the fact that during the upgrade, all of our Internet traffic will flow through our secondary bandwidth provider.
