Barrington 220 Completes WAN and Internet Upgrades

Barrington 220 has recently completed an upgrade of our Wide Area Network (WAN), increasing our bandwidth 10-fold. This new WAN encompasses our data network connections from each Barrington 220 building to the central point of our network, located at Barrington High School. In addition, our Internet bandwidth has been significantly increased to allow for additional growth and Internet access.

The costs of this project were covered in large part with funding from the federal E-rate program along with additional funding from the State of Illinois Department of Innovation and Technology E-rate consortium.

Combined with a recently completed upgrade of much of our school building network equipment, Barrington 220 continues to provide proven and consistent high-speed Internet access throughout the school district, via our dynamic, high-density capable network.
