Securly or Senso?
synaesthesia replied to StephenPink's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
Indeed, Senso on it's own isn't enough (it's not even enough on it's own for classroom management/remote support, we have to dual run with Impero for it to be usable) -
You're quite right, that's part of the protection circuit - looks like something's come back down over a port and given it a fright! Anyway, Big Clive only likes things that he can explode "Oooh, that's exciting!"

Yeah, if its the original one without the screen (has the blue square circle instead) they have the same built in "power features" as the Toughswitches, as in faily power supplies. They can be replaced with a 3rd party one without too much modification, but it's certainly far easier to replace with something else.

Indeed today's was tough, but took 2 of us until the last go for today's Lewdle!

This is the main reason I'm following this thread!

One to block - win7simu.visnalize.com/
synaesthesia replied to fiza's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
It's not a VM, it's a really basic emulation of it - it's not even Windows. Internet on it is "browsable" but unusable. -
I had entirely forgotten about that game, used to love it!

Search on youtube. Sorry, you'll be there a while, watching him pick the worlds most secure locks with ease. If he can't do it with a leaf, part of a Red Bull can or by hitting it with a small rubber mallet, he and Bosnian Bill will have a tool for it. Literally EVERY biometric or NFC lock he's ever gone near can be opened by going near it with a not even powerful magnet.

I've had experience with Eonon and Xtrons. Had 2 failures on the Xtrons (both on a Ford Focus) but service was surprisingly decent and had a quick replacement. That was a few years ago though, but I'd recommend either. If you like tinkering though, maybe look at using your existing head unit and coupling with an Android Tablet. I've replaced the navigation screen in my Laguna with a samsung 7" tablet, connects directly to the stock head unit for audio, bluetooth, carplay etc etc and fully customisable - something the units from all the chinese manufacturers are not. (And do be careful - some of the cheaper ones will say Android but what they actually mean is Windows CE... seriously!)

Noisy switches!! Suggestions for a solid, reliable, but quiet solution?
synaesthesia replied to TJ7's topic in Wired Networks
POE means power and warmth, so you'll have noise or something with a short lifespan. Best option, if the switch must stay in situ, is a better cabinet. -
That's a lovely breach of SLA - over 7 days, breach of contract so if you wanted to jump ship you could do so almost immediately. However might not even be that easy; you might only have one carrier able to provide that leased line meaning any other provider would be in the same boat!

USB-C is already sensitive to length (more so than HDMI) so couplers are out of the question meaning you'd need to go direct into the hub. Not a good idea really as one of the selling points of wallboxes are replaceable connections.
-
Seems "cheap". The original worked because it was able to tackle serious issues with comedy. That's difficult to pull off, so a drama is easier. Even with Will Smith directing, I can't see it being particularly successful.
-
Indeed - there's better shielding in Displayport which negates some of that, but again another meter or so and the problem re-appears (We have mostly DP to HDMI around the site)
-
Very aware of this - definitely use optical cables where you can. Apparently every join in a HDMI connection is the equivalent of 2 or 3 meters of cable in loss, and you have 2 of those in a faceplate setup (turning a 5m cable into 10-11m worth of loss), and some devices are more sensitive to this than others. For example, the Intel Iris chipset is bloody awful in that regard.

There's always work for someone who specialises in world-ending films Some people think they're documentaries. "The neutrinos - they're mutating!"

Smoothwall cloud filter outage?
synaesthesia replied to SpaceInvader83's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
Yes, just the cloud filtering solution (which can be part of a local install too) which is usually used for filtering devices like Chromebooks offsite. -

Likewise, down all morning. -
Take your blinkers off. Re-read what I said please, with all due respect. If it wasn't fair, it wasn't fair. It should have been dealt with transparently, consistently. You can't say Max would have won because after the first "change" everything after is a new possibility. Regardless, if it won him the championship earlier, it would have been so, would have been correct, and would have been fair. THATS the point I'm trying to get across. EVERYTHING needs to be fair.

No brit-fanning here. F1 fanning. Standards-fanning. The very reason I get so vocal on here and at my place of work. If something isn't right, it needs calling out REGARDLESS of who benefits/loses out. If we don't, we might as well just bend over for everything and accept it blindly. That's wrong - and if you agree with that, you're wrong.

That wasn't a bad decision, it was Masi being Masi. The best overall outcome is for Mercedes to hammer FIA/Masi in court, get that fool out of office and get someone else more suitable in place. Masi has made mistake after mistake and applying the rules to suit his own whims (can NOT be applied to 15.3 as agreed by countless people including lawyers!) is unacceptable.
