  1. This could be the network drivers, The HPE Embedded adapters are Broadcom based. which are known to have latency issues when the VMQ feature is enabled. i usually turn it off if a drive update doesn't fix it or im pressed for time.
  2. pretty much as mavhc said really Standard covers you for 2 VM's & 1 host, providing the host is only used for the HyperV role. As soon as you use it for something other than that, you'll need to license it
  3. we experienced a ridiclous amount of issues with Hyper V Server 2016 in its first few months, especially when using clustering or MPIO, so much so we ripped it out and put Hyper-v server 2012 back in. We put HyperV server 2019 in 3 weeks ago and havent had any major issues managing it, infact we havent had any issues at all *touch wood*. The Built in Microsoft management tools & the admin center pretty much does all we need, so cant comment on compatibility with 3rd party tools, Veeam & Naviko work with it too so backups arent a problem. We thought about putting in a fully fledged version of server 2019 but decided against it as Hyperv server has fewer vulnerabilities as it only installs the componets it needs and if we did go full server someone will no doubt use the server for something which will require us to get another license.
  4. Hi, are these still available? we could make use of these for some of our more able pupils.
  5. I occasionally have this issue, its normally down to our proxy not letting the profile through. Have you tried putting the iPad on a connection without a proxy and adding the profile?
  6. From what i remember of implementing this a few years ago. you'll need 15 SIP Channels (1 channel per outgoing/incoming call) you dont need 1 channel per number/phone unless you want 75 simultaneous calls Amount of channels per trunk alters with your SIP provider. numbers can be bought in blocks from BT or your SIP provider.
  7. we have alot of 600 series, a few 500's and a few PX340's. The 600's are picked up if i point them to the drivers but the PX340's aren't recognized neither are some of the 500's. INK doesn't seem to work with any of them either. The only reason i say 12.2 is because that is what we were running on Win7/Win10 (1503) before the summer with Smart 11.4 and everything seemed to work. Upgrading to SLS isn't an option either unfortunately as LG dont want to pay the annual subscription charge for software that doesn't get used. Plus we are starting to phase out smart boards and go for BenQ panels as the majority of staff dont use the notebook software anymore, they just use the INK part for annotation.
  8. Hi All, I was just wondering if anyone out there has a copy of Smart product drivers version 12.2 & ink 2.3? I've just done a rollout of windows 10 v1709 but forgot to include the drivers in the image and i can't find them anywhere, there no longer on the smart site and google yields no results
  9. Only found out about this because of this thread, Spent the entire morning checking student details, luckily we're a small school. Cheshire seemed completely unaware that this is an issue when i reported it this morning. I'm still awaiting on a response from them on releasing the Summer upgrade or patch so i can try to prevent it from happening again.
  10. I replaced our server back in December and visualized everything. I chose to go for a bare metal install of Hyper-v Server, rather than installing server OS and the hyper v role. Once initial setup was done I've barely touched the CLI, as most things are controllable through hyper-v manager on a desktop. The cost we had from VEEAM to cover 6 VM'S was excruciating so that got ruled out very quickly, we ended up getting Naviko as it installed straight on to the WD NAS we have, meaning no software on any of the servers and its a piece of cake to setup & restore machines if needed.
  11. Unfortunately our smoothy is provided by the LA and we only have delegated access to manage the filter list, we cant even edit policies. I completely agree, UniFi kit is great and is massive value for money, heck i even use it at home. but unfortunately it doesn't work for the current setup we have here.
  12. I thought this may be the case, unfortunately alot of the people we get in wouldn't aren't exactly IT savvy so offering the certificate from the captive portal wouldn't work. My first suggestion was to install something like ruckus but they shot that down as they only installed the UniFi kit in September. Sounds like a separate FTTC is the easiest way, i could then use a DNS based content filtering service aswell to make it even easier. Thanks for the heads up. The guest network is currently secured and the key phrase (which is manually changed, every week) is only given out to guests. before i got here it was unsecured, don't know who thought that was a good idea
  13. Morning! I've been asked to look into setting up a new guest WIFI network, as the current one is just an additional SSID for the internal network with no segregation at all, (setup before i started). I've established that i need to create a dedicated VLAN so that it cannot access the internal network, However im getting stuck on how to push our LA proxy settings & certificate (Smoothwall) to our to guest users. Internally i have pushed the proxy setting out via W-PAD and installed the certificate via group policy, but unsure how i will go about this for guest users. We are running UniFi AP-AC-Pro's & have 2 UniFi Switch 48
  14. any objections if i jump in on the offer aswell? Starting to migrate to windows 10 over the summer and it would be nice to have something to compare to.
  15. The one's i got from screwfix last year are still holding up 10m of rope light i hung under the soffit's last Christmas. so should easily hold some cables
