Terminal Server 2008 Slowness Issue and recommendations
hi experts
we have a deployment where 5-6 users access all there data trough terminal server
The users are real-estate agents and they use internet, Emails, download images etc on the terminal server
The main office is getting a download speed of 300KB/s with a line of 2.5Mbps
The internet download speed at the remote site where these users are is 700KB/s
Now the issue is that the users report the connection to be very slow and they are expecting it to be realtime
The server is performing relaxed as i have monitored the performance and i believe it’s not the server but the internet speed
The OS is server 2008 R2, Desktop experience enabled as was required by the users.
I plan to propose them an internet plan upgrade but last thing we want is no performance boost after upgrading as well
Has anyone had experience with a similar setup,,,,
Which is the best way to go about it...
What is the recommended internet speed for an optimal terminal server session
