Bandwidth in School Network going extremely slow around 2.00 PM

So we just installed some new Monitoring software on our school network in one of the classrooms. The software is Impero Edu Pro.

We have used this program before with absolutely no problems. We recently upgraded our PCs from Windows 7 to Windows 8.

Ever since this change, at an exact specific time in the day (2.00 PM to be exact - every day) the network starts going EXTREMELY slow... To the point where browsers will hang and start throwing DNS errors etc... Then it will come back up.. couple minutes go back down... and repeat.

I opened up Resmon and noticed that around the time of the Bandwidth spike, Impero is peeking at around 100Bps... Now time this by the 16 PCs we have in the room?

In the morning, Impero is only utilising about 4k Bps... So I think it might have something to do with this?

I checked the config, and there doesnt seem to be any setting in relation to Auto Update? We also rang them up and they assured us the only beaconing Impero does it to check for the License key... which is every 30 minutes or so?

Does anyone have any idea about what is going on?
