Re: [Indiana] COVID-19 Hotspots
We have hotspots in several cities across Indiana and surrounding states. There is a map on our website here: https://watchcomm.net/uncategorized/public-wifi-hotspots/ I can get a list of city names if needed.

Re: [Indiana] Meeting
We've seen roughly a 37% increase. Went from aggregate 14.5Gbit/s to roughly 20Gbit/s since March 10th and people are asking for more. It's crazy how much bandwidth people are using. We haven't ran reports based on destination AS yet but might be interesting to see what the "critical" services are. I'm sure we all already assume it's Netflix, Disney+, and Prime Video :) Adam Kennedy Systems Engineer adamkenn...@watchcomm.net | 800-589-3837 x120 <800-589-3837;120> Watch Communications | www.watchcomm.net <https://www.watchcomm.net?utm_source=signature_medium=email_campaign=general_signature> 3225 W Elm St, Suite A Lima, OH 45805 <https://twitter.com/watchcommnet> <https://www.facebook.com/watchcommunications> <http://www.linkedin.com/company/watch-communications> On Mon, Mar 23, 2020 at 3:17 PM ORI.NET - Mark LePere wrote: > About 20% increase here.Almost 10% of clients have requested speed > upgrades.
