[OPLINTECH] Patrons using bandwidth

[Josh Proffit]

It's definitely worth looking into contacting Time Warner, and I believe I may get lucky and score one donation from them but, I doubt I can get em to donate us a connection at every branch. Also, as a response to the other comment, we do qualify for a free T1 upgrade from Oplin and the ticket has already been submitted YAY! But I fear that at some point we'll just run into the same scenario. But, I thank everyone for helping me keep my options open! :)

What about getting Roadrunner to donate services and use them just for the 
public and get them off the network?
