The university (St. Cloud State) I go to has been having some problems with its network. I know its not the ISP, because while the network was being funky, i was continously pinging the gateway. Over a time span of 15 min, there was a 23% packet loss.
When I say funky, i mean that I would get replys for about a min or 2, and then get no responses for about 30 seconds, and this would repeat, over and over again.
I want to bring this to their attention, considering what if I were doing research and needed the internet? A day before I started to do some of these simple tests, I heard that an entire dorm housings would get completely cut off. And considering they jack up our tution prices for a "Technology Fee", (all MN universitys have Tech Fees) I expect to get what I pay for. And for a school with only 18,000 students, the network is nothing compared to the University of Minnesota's network with 45,000 + students.
FYI, I work as a computer consulant at the university, and so I have more say then some random student coming in and bitching about the network.
What should I do? Thanks!
