Mary sent this message today about Internet slowness:
Our HPL and City network teams are constantly engaged in finding a solution to our internet slowness. City IT keeps pointing to our SmartFilter as the culprit. Late yesterday afternoon, HPL went live on a 30 day test of WebSense Internet Filter. This 30 day test should help to confirm their suspicions; or cause them to look elsewhere for the problem. If it does prove their theory, then HPL’s IT department will recommend switching our filtering subscription to WebSense.
Please keep IT informed if our customers complain of sites blocked; or slowness in connectivity.
IT Helpdesk: • Telephone: 832-393-1570 • Email: HPL IT Helpdesk (HPL.HelpDesk@houstontx.gov).
