LGFL & 'No Internet Access' message
RichS replied to TerryUK's topic in London Grid for Learning (LGfL)
Assuming you've tried both netsh winsock reset and netsh int ip reset on that? What build are you currently on? We are using an LGFL connection on Windows 10 and its fine, as above, wireshark is a key bit of kit here. Assuming because of that error, cortana isn't working as it thinks its not connected. You mention Essex, did they have a proxy... believe they did. Win10 uses the winhttp proxy rather than browser based addition, so might be worth double checking nothing has been added to the actual local settings rather than no browser proxy etc. I know it played havoc with Windows updates and other such things when we were running through a proxy based environment. -
Hi, I know lgfl or atomwide raised with Google and a change was made to Youtubes actual app. Could raise a case and ask who or why but I got a response from one of their guys who has worked with Google to resolve that issue.

Thank you for the explanation and sharing the frustration of us and our staff. DDOS seems to be happening more now, do you know what security measures you are putting in place? It is hard to explain how we pay for the service but it gets taken down for an unspecified time because of an attack. It really affects the learning process in school! 247 support sounds fantastic, are you able to elaborate? If I'm having issues getting remote access, is someone going to be there to assist or would it be more along the lines of service affecting support? Thank you!

Thanks mukz. Just raised case as ours is out of date. They said it's being restored... I'll await an update.
-
They've raised announcements on their portal and it looks as though they are upgrading their network. It says tomorrow as well at the minute, mention of core technology.

HI Jon, We use those as moderate ones, so it won't let you remove that restriction. when we use the more open ones (which we dont because safe search is removed) then we can control the restriction.
-
On those machines, are you using lgfl dns and if so, what ones? From a case recently we had 3 options, 2 of their dns will lock down the site.

Cheers, I'm going to check and see what I can see here and warn accordingly!
-
I'll have to have a look? Any specific vids at all?
-
I think there is always that risk, not had anything reported to me directly however if you do search the common words like s** etc, you do get some unsavory stuff, then again its not a common search term here.

I'd recommend doing that otherwise the server is still well aware of the route to YouTube as it'll be in the com folder. Saves bandwidth by knowing where to go anyway Clear caches on the devices you are using and you should be away!
-
Have you added them correctly and cleared all the caches on DNS servers?
-
Good call on the playlist, it might get a but unwieldy over time but will likely help for now!

There is. I called earlier this week and was told that there are differences between the dns restriction and the self enforced one you can do on home machines but no way to implement those, it's a cookie that Google place when you change it locally but doesn't do the same with DNS. Safety mode has gone in favour of their restricted mode you can use Google Apps so perhaps a little nudge to get people on there within establishments. Google does bug me sometimes... perfectly good service that they change when they feel leaving us fighting for a solution!
