To complete this survey, you need to know the bandwidth coming into your school/district. If you do not know your bandwidth or connection type (question 1), you can use resources on the Internet to find an approximation. The sites listed below provide only estimates of bandwidth, and their inclusion here does not constitute an endorsement by the U.S. Department of Education.

These websites are external to eToolkit and they are provided without warranty. Once you determine your bandwidth, please return to the survey.

• Communication Workers of America site at speedmatters.org
• Various resources provided by hosting.com at internetfrog.com
• Resource provided by Ookla.com, a vendor for network speed test tools, at speedtest.net/
• A collection of many (some state-specific) speed tests on an ad-supported site.

These questions about bandwidth use are structured in a way that is easy to use for principals and CTOs. This question asks how many people could be using different applications at any one time. From this, there are two ways to calculate needed bandwidth. You may capture a case where many applications are using bandwidth simultaneously if you input a subset of users and use the "maximum load" view (the default). This will show an aggregate view of the bandwidth. Alternatively, you might be working with a fixed number of computers or computer labs and want to know if students could be at every workstation in the computer lab doing video streaming at the same time. In this case, you will see each application separately.
