Archbishop Thomas Murphy High School is a Catholic college-preparatory school located in Everett, Washington. IT Director, Vince Alkire, says "Sharedband offered our high school a low cost way of getting a fast, reliable, Internet connection for a number of applications such as the school's hosted website. The school originally started with two 3-MB ADSL connections bonded together by the Sharedband service and replaced a more expensive T1 line as a way to cut costs. However, because of the heavy traffic demands from both students and faculty, we realized we needed to increase the bandwidth beyond the aggregated 6 MB connection. We were able to benefit from the flexibility of the Sharedband service by simply adding a third  3-MB ADSL line and seamlessly bonding it with the existing two lines to provide us with a 9 MB connection. In addition to the faster speed, both down and up, the resiliency of having multiple lines also delivered a failover solution at no additional cost.”
