Its a managed device - so I would have hoped all that would have been taken care of!

LighSpeed should do a lot of things that we were promised after fortinet just fell at the first that it doesn't appear capable of - sick of it to be honest been plagued with these issues for 18 months now.

I've spoken to Rushden or at lease know of their issues think Matt is at the end of his tether too - same as Ferrers with their speed issue. Waiting for a call back that should have happened by now but guess what........and trust me LightSpeed does not fix fortigate issues it just adds to them - and boy does it add to them

Had to have HTTPS traffic stopped because LightSpeed was allowing students onto facebook and the like - it appears this amazing software can only blanket ban HTTPS so our students can't access Office365 anymore for e-mail - most excellent. Also, many Google searches for images are just coming up blank grey boxes. Its even worse than the Fortinet filter we had to suffer previously and of course our suppliers helpdesk is almost as bad - be nice to get a response one day! Anybody else having these issues and know of any workarounds?

Is anybody else having authentication issues with the Fortinet 100D or similar and Active Directory? Installed 7 months ago and we are no further forward not being able to browse one of the most popular sites on the Internet (YouTube). It appears the agent running on the DC is at fault but as we get little feedback from Talk-Straight its hard to tell.

Not sure brilliant is a word we would use!! Troublesome and incapable of doing the job is our experience.

We switched from SmoothWall to a Fortinet 100D with Talk-Straight - What a mistake to make - nothingg but trouble for 7 months now and still no sign of improvements. The support is nothing short of shocking, no systems properly in place to support that massive amount of new customers and quite frankly we feel ripped off. No SLA's in place to speak of and if they are they keep very quiet about it using words like "shortly". We will be looking to return to SmoothWall asap.
