Cool!

Now that NIU has a big pipe to the Internet, can you work with the NIU
IT guys to remove the filtering that has been slowing ADDE access
to weather3 for many months.  I thought that this had been done the
other day when things were running nice and fast, but a quick check
a minute ago shows that the artificially imposed slowdown is still/back
in place.

Cheers,

Tom

Hi Tom,

If you go through the packet shaper, it is slow. There is no packet shaper 
with I2, but I notice it is going up and down by the minute here as they 
test stuff. So, be patient...it will be removed for me with I2. It is slow 
going to UIUC right now as they test the lines, and it was slow going to 
you a few minutes ago when I tested.
