  1. The privacy can reduce spammmage sometimes that could make say a Finance Director freak out over lost domains when it doesn't actually expire for example...
  2. Rapid flash isn't good. http://www.avalontele.com/file/how2-check-isdn-2e.pdf Sounds like that is your issue IMHO.
  3. Tried them via a reseller and NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Looking at Gamma myself for future needs.
  4. Each NTE should have 1 cable from it to the PBX in my experience of other PBXs, last one I fitted the site had 4 Channels of ISDN2E and each NTE did 2 of them so was 2 cables one in each in that PBX. It also mirrored how it was on the old PBX and worked fine so would think you need the same unless its configured differently on your install to that site.
  5. A friend lives in York and is on that FTTP Trail there, he has his Gaming PC in Azure.... No issues at all so has a cheap PC at home blazing fast internet and off it goes (He works for MS so gets a bucket of Azure Credits each month before someone says about the $$$$ so its free to him as he uses his credits for that).

  7. B4RN is great have many friends and former customers from back home in the Dales using it now its a great thing. I, like @ZeroHour, am a HyperOptic user in London and cannot complain about them the perofmrance is great, I only have the 100Mb symmetric connection (now its sold as 150Mb) and its great wouldn't be without it, when I go back to my family that don't have B4RN its rotten old ADSL Max and even trying to have a Skype call its a co-ordinated effort to stop others using internet due to poor upload.
  8. You would not usually, however it caused chaos on the line this morning as the issue is trains turning round at London Bridge jams it all up and slows the service so its more a general be warned... London Bridge or Waterloo East are very much the stops to escape at onto the Jubilee and then DLR from Canning Town.
  9. I'll be on stand on Wednesday and Saturday to keep everyone happy
  10. Do your servers not have iLO, iDRAC, iPMI etc on them ? I don't think out of all our server rooms we have any KVMs and just ensure we get full remote management licenses for the hosts as its one less thing to go wrong / patch / maintain etc..
  11. What is this patch
  12. HPE has the Service Pack for Proliant tool (SPP) - Service Pack for ProLiant | Hewlett Packard Enterprise Please be aware you need a support contract to obtain such items, if the server is under the original 3 year warranty that counts as a service contract.

    I know Riello, got a 60K beast in our Server Room its been grand, @Domino bought it and it just works.
  14. I write a cheque at least every 6 months as my dentist is cash or cheque only. Receiving, I've had a few from HMRC in the past they don't like BACS for giving money away....
  15. Afraid to say I disagree, I did indicate in an earlier post in this thread it was degradation rather than total outage, however we have users hit by some of these, it has a column to indicate when they can identify directly impacted users but its masked for confidentiality on my image, but what are those users to do if its access to OneDrive where all the files are stored for example? If that onedrive is the shared area hosting the snow chain perhaps and staff didn't download it..... A number of the items in that image are general issues with the service (and it varies region to region so someone else looking at that report may see differently as they may not be on the same DC and Farm that we are), what I'm getting at is it is all about planning, the cloud for sure has a place to be in peoples strategy but just needs to be planned and ensure options for those what if situations occur as I suspect they will be straight at IT's door going emails down how do I email the notices out or how do I make a phone call if you use a cloud PBX etc..
  16. If you be a plane spotter its a total excitement-fest for you
  17. Are you in the shiny new Premier Inn that opened last year which is on the Royal Arsenal or the TravelLodge down in town (assuming your doing a commercial hotel and not with friends etc....) either way I'd go for the walk over the dock myself. If you don't want to do the dock walk either DLR will allow easy change to Beckton service at Canning Town, however Stratford Intl ones are usually a bit quieter given most folks want to go to Bank in a morning commute, if the DLR packs up (it had moments this morning) you can get a 472 to the O2 and then The Dangleway (Emirates Airline) over from there or tube back to Canning Town and then DLR to Beckton. You can also get the free ferry or use the foot tunnel and explore the gap in space time continuum under the river... so we have loads of options, worth noting if your not local the Free Ferry doesn't run late so if your planning on partying late you will either be walking under the river or need to use the DLR or trains.
  18. You can also use Android and Apple Pay on your wearables and phones. Change anywhere before Canning Town to the Beckton train for sure is sensible so if you get teh DLR at bank take the first train (doesn't matter what destination) and step off at Shadwell and wait for a Beckton service instead. Avoiding Custom House station is always a smart move go one before and have a 5 minute walk or the one after much nicer. If you like a further walk or are joining us via City Airport you can get off at West Silvertown (or if you want an even longer walk Pontoon Dock) and walk through the housing estate and take the bridge over the dock instead, you do have planes coming over your head as its right on the flightpath to LCY but its a nice breezy walk if you feel that being stuck indoors and you want fresh air:
  19. I will be around at some point, myself and @Domino have to balance things.... cannot have the 2 worldwide superpowers out together the world may end....
  20. That is the report from O365 for the last 7 days.... you will note that some items are from beyond 7 days as they are still fixing them.... but nothing is "down" just degraded but the degradation could be an issue for you if you use those areas / items etc.. so I am certainly not saying don't use it just ensure you have good alternative options for if a degradation hits you and stops a process.
  21. One thing we see with our MS Cloud Services is service issues so things may not be hard down but impacted, so we have had mail-flow delayed due to issues with the cloud not processing efficiently or something going wrong in it for example. So MS don't call it an outage as such yet it impacts business for us. I don't think a week goes by without my O365 Admin App going ping with a service alert for something not working 100% right.
  22. I would say do look at Clevertouch, I am in business now but use the Pro version which doesn't have the Edu focus but the product is brilliant and I know the Edu is very much the same thing. The Android is a removable module so yes it comes with it but you could also take it out if you don't want it I guess or buy a new one in the future. They also have on some models a 2nd slot for a PC, again removable etc... well worth talking to them. They are EduGeek sponsors as well (or were at my last look) and are very much good people
  23. Space reserved Do you need one for 2018 my rates are totally reasonable
  24. BETT 2019 will be better for me... 1 stop on the Crossrail then I'm home However I'm not so sure the plan of the EduGeek stand staffing kipping in sleeping bags on my floor will go down that well... it may make @Dos_Box think he's in the army again....
  25. To keep it geeky the CEO of Hyperoptic has got a gong in it - https://www.thinkbroadband.com/news/7916-dana-tobak-hyperoptic-ceo-receives-a-cbe-in-new-years-honours-list so well valid its a great service given she was behind BE as well back in the days of its being very clever stuff....
