Finally our T-1 data portion is up and operational! Just did some speed tests, seems pretty good. Got it plugged directly into my laptop….now I just need to get it patched into our gateway firewall, do some IP changes and should be good to go! Our voice T-1 becomes operational this Friday! Glad to see this process is finally complete!

Our 30-day trial of Katharion has finished and the check is in the mail! We are definitely staying with them, the amount of spam/virus/harmful content it has blocked has paid for itself in the first month. Our per-seat cost is $1.30 per month, which is a steal considering Postini was somewhere in the $3.00+ range. And from what I have seen and heard, Katharion is delivering the same quality of service that Postini would. Plus the customer service has been wonderful and its uptime is running 100% in the past 2 months. If you’re looking for a spam solution I’d encourage you to give Katharion a chance.

Our new building addition IDF is finally coming online. Just ran the last remaining cabling, now all thats left is to hook everything up. This will also complete our wireless project, finally! Also I redesigned our captive portal page…what do you think of it?

Just found this little gem…it is a free recursive DNS service. My ISP’s (Charter) DNS servers were extremely slow in resolving names; after switching to OpenDNS I have noticed a huge increase in name resolution. It also incorporates a range of neat features: usage reporting, phishing protection and mistake correction (example: you type in yahoo.cmo, it will still go to yahoo.com). They even have a FREE Business product that I am considering trying out at church. It has numerous options, perhaps the best is the reporting that can be done. If you are tired of your ISP’s DNS servers you might want to give OpenDNS a glance.
