13Mbps for 480 students network? any recommendation?
Anyone had setup this kind of network? Any idea to set the Qos?
Any proxy server use?
This is crazy low. You should by all means inrease bandwidth or you’ll run into problems. I would go with at least 100Mbits.
We feed 300 Students with 100Mbits limiting each Student to 16Mbits. This works ok.
We feed 300 Students with 100Mbits limiting each Student to 16Mbits or 1.6Mbits?
How about 13Mbps lease line + 10 X 4Mbps(DL)/512Kbps(UP) DSL line bonding together?
16MBit/s. This is due to ADSL2+. They have only 2 Coppers to each appartement.
10x4 sounds like you get only 4MBit/s DSL at this location. So you’ve a weak Signal.
DSL might degrade further if you use 10 lines in parallel.
I would expect Problems. But if it is all you can get …
Our ISP just offer 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 4Mbps, and 8Mbps connectionfor us.
Yes 100MBPS speed is really very good as per your requirement. taking less speed can also create an problem of connecting
You should search another who offers more. May be you have to ask for Business Connection.
480 students is a quite big Network. Students eat more traffic than average people.
Maybe there are no faster ISPs in his country. In this case, students might be used to such low speed. Depends on their requirements, and on what other provider speed is in your country or city. If you normally get 100Kbit in a Cybercafe, maybe this could work.
Ok 
). I know only my students. At least skype video must work.
We have 13Mbps connection lease line already, but it is really expensive.
13Mbps lease line cost us USD3716.32/month
If we go for 100Mbps connection, it cost us USD13000/month
For the DSL 8Mbps/512K it cost us USD100/month and it is dynamic ip address.
So we now wish to apply 10 X 4Mbps/512K DSL line to bonding the network.
We also plan to install butch events script and squid for the network.
Do you use butch events script for your network?
Beside, do you use any cache server for your networks?
Ok. I see your need to live with a small line ). Some Students residents here are connected
to the University with wireless bridges. Our Universities have a Fiber Backbone for interconnection
between them and the “normal” Internet. So may be you can avoid the line costs. 13Mbps can be
done easy with 200$ MT-Equipment …
With small Bandwidth I would use a Web-Proxy and feed it with the ADSL-Lines. The remaining traffic
I would shape down and use the 13Mbps-Line.
No. No. We try to keep the backhaul fast enough to avoid this.
It is easier to Limit the bandwidth on the edges of the network.
Access List in MT Wireless or using only ADSL for the students
(In fact there are VDSL-Modems installed which would do up to 50MBit/s).
Where MT Wireless is not fast enough for backhaul we go licensed microwave.
This is crazy low. You should by all means inrease bandwidth or you’ll run into problems. I would go with at least 100Mbits.
You answered a 2013 post
To be frank, only when I read “13Mbps lease line cost us USD3716.32/month” I thought that something is wrong and looked at the date.
but still… 7 years ago 3700 USD for 13MBit? what are prices now?
