What are people's experiences with Meraki APs failing?
nikaso replied to nikaso's topic in Wireless Networks
I did mention we didn't use Meraki POEs but they didn't seem interested -
Scratch that, I think we have a filtering issue generally, Chrome intermittently allows https sites like encrypted google (which means image searches without safe search).

They got me to try the usual, factory resets etc but none of it worked so they issued an RMA for both. -
Strangely we have the opposite issue at the moment, Internet Explorer allows HTTPS but Chrome doesn't. Lightspeed have told us it's due to a backup IP service IE uses and they are working on a fix.

I think I did try this but have sent them back and received replacements now anyway so hopefully it'll be ok! -

We are using Phihong POE injectors, they were £20 each versus the £70-80 for official Meraki injectors at the time. -

We use POE injectors, because we have quite a spread out site it was going to be quite expensive to put a POE switch in at each location, of course that means no logs to query unfortunately! -

The first 3 were MR16s, last one was an MR24, The MR16s that have failed just display a red power light and won't factory reset, the MR24 gives an unstable connection, on ping tests through the dashboard I see pings in excess of 20000 ms , factory reset didn't cure it. -

I'm hoping we just had a bad batch rather than anything more serious, fingers crossed! -

Guess it might just be me then! -
We've just had our 4th Meraki AP fail and had to be RMA'd since their installation in August last year. This is out of a total of 36 APs so it seems quite a high number to me? Has anyone had similar experiences?
-
Oh well, might be worth looking at anyway. It looks pretty if nothing else!

I can't seem to find anything on whether or not this was successful, anyone know?

Ahh, the old Error 0. Connect.ini is a problem but you will also see the issue if there is a loss of network connectivity. We have a member of staff who forgets to turn their wireless on sometimes and gets the error 0 code. I'm assuming the PC you have it installed on is the SIMS server? We have our system set up to look at a single shared connect.ini file on the server but in your case it sounds as though you might need to change it on each PC.

Tribune bought Zentek's name and assets but didn't acquire it's liabilities. We found this out to our cost when we discovered our server warranties were not going to be honoured as the supplier hadn't been paid! With regards what's happened recently I have no idea!

Any motorbike riders here? First time rider advice.
nikaso replied to burnsyb0y's topic in General Chat
I've not ridden now for about 18 months and I miss it, particularly when the weather improves and you see lots of bikers out enjoying themselves. I can only echo the comments above about other road users. Assume all car drivers are chimps and you won't go too far wrong. Defensive riding is your friend, a couple of times I've had to stop my bike on it's nose when a coffin dodger pulled out in front of me (after looking at me!). I've only come off once and that was while learning, day 1 of my Direct Access I was doing emergency stops in heavy rain, no problem at all! Day 2 however was bone dry, more emergency stops and I managed to lock the front wheel and then spent a few seconds doing a 30 MPH slide down the middle of the road, came away with some very colourful bruising down my hip and thigh but other than that I was fine. I always say it was the best thing that happened to me because it made me more careful. As for gear I'd say textile all the way, leather looks good but you don't want to be wearing it in the rain and as we live in the UK....well I'll let you work that out! I've got a Hein Gericke Hi Viz jacket from their factory seconds shop on ebay and although I look like coco the clown it means everyone can see me coming. See I'm talking like I still ride........ -
I know our PE department has both a Facebook page and a Twitter account which are used to share relevant information about fixtures, achievements etc. Other than that I know a couple of departments have experimented with blogs but I think that has fallen away.

I agree that there will need to be extra money somewhere but I think there would be a net benefit to the economy, possibly even some new opportunities for school staff?

I know some of the stuff Gove comes out with is a bit much but I can't help feel sometimes people dismiss what he says out of hand because he is Gove and/or a Tory. Education (and State education particularly) has always been left leaning so there will be a natural antipathy to the Tories but it doesn't mean it's all rubbish. A working parent might think a ten hour school day is magnificent, imagine a parent who works 8 hours a day, when you include a commute it's more like 9 hours. This would mean no childcare costs which would save an awful lot of money?

I've had a few suppliers try that before, just dropping in because they were passing. Guess what, I'm busy, that's why we have calendars.

If they have an option to output to a second monitor they should definitely be able to show two displays at once. Like lazer says, I'd check the cable and I'd also add check the resolution, if you are trying to output a signal to a device with a resolution that's out of range it will black screen.

I played it for a couple of days at Christmas but like DMcGuigan above but wasn't amazed. It's still very clunky and didn't really do it for me. At least not yet.

I play Standalone occasionally, I'm pretty kitted now but paranoid about moving near the coast! In terms of tips this is what worked for me: Find some food and water/soda when you spawn Head inland (I ended up at the North West airfield), most bandits and other survivors often stick around the coastal areas in particular the cities Electro and Cherno. Get an online map up so you can alt-tab to it, once you find a road sign you can usually figure out where you are on the map (towns etc are in cyrillic but you can match the symbols and letters up on the map) Your best melee weapons are the axes, in particular the fire axe but anything is better than fists. Remember you can drink at water pumps if they are present in villages. I tend to approach villages cautiously at first but with the intention of attracting zombies (preferably one at a time) because I can one shot them with my axe and then I'm not worrying they will jump on me when I am looting a building. don't eat rotten food. Most tinned food can only be opened with a can opener or a edged melee weapon (in which case you spill some food when opening it). That's a very basic guide, there are far more detailed ones out there but those steps got me started (I was also lucky enough to get an axe fairly early)
