    Hello Remy,

    Thank you for the response and information. It is clear what the answer is.

    Take care, and be safe everybody.

mk2,

 

We have implemented a variety of optimizations in an effort to improve network efficiency while many of our customers work and learn from home.

Thanks,

Remy
