HI
We have had ISA Server 2000 running for around 7 months with no trouble at
all. We know we have set this up correctly and are happy with th way it
has been running with around 50 users. Since August 2003 we have added
around 150 users, bring the total number of users up to 200 users.
Everything has been running fine since, up until 5 days ago. All the users
have seen a massive slowdown in internet speed. We have an 8MB line to the
internet so we know its not lack of bandwidth, even though we have heavy
web traffic. We were very confused because another one of our sites which
is much smaller had exactly the problem at the same time, but thismay just
be a coincidence. Since then we have found that making the users install a
firewall client and asking them to enable "Use a proxy server for your
LAN", in LAN Settings under Internet options has improved the speed of the
internet dramatically bringing the services back to normal.
Our ISA setup is basic, as we are not in a corporate network. So there is
no domain, etc. But our ISA config is a little more complex, with MSN and
KAzaa enabled but restricted to useonly a percentage of the bandwidth, but
i dont see this as the problem as it has always been there and has been
used.
Can anyone shed light on what can be causing the problem?
Regards
Sachin
