Product Info

Despite being equipped with iPads, teachers and students alike were not making use of them. The reason
for this was because of the slow network access speeds. Apps would not download and course contents
were inaccessible. Often, having more than a couple students connected to the same Wi-Fi access point
was enough to bring it to its knees.
Colégio Next needed a unique solution, so they contacted Peplink.
