  1. You are missing part of the error message, but looking at what's there I'm guessing there's a problem with the database location in the connect.ini
  2. Just noticed that screwfix have the exact same unit: https://www.screwfix.com/p/british-general-2g-13a-sp-switched-wi-fi-extender-socket-white/7706v
  3. None of those are powerline adapters... Although it does look like they are a thing: https://www.broadbandbuyer.com/products/21663-pe-power-ethernet-t1501/
  4. I'm going, my colleague is staying to wait for the part.
  5. Our SIMS server died today... Parts to get her online will arrive at the end of the day today.
  6. Are you able to PM me which school this is based at?
  7. Is the shed on a concrete base?
  8. Next step for me would be to run wireshark to see what the traffic from those devices are doing.
  9. And you think the damaged vent surrounded with mould isn't the problem?
  10. I can't see how additional fraud prevention measures are a bad thing?
  11. 1) make sure the network config matches. 2) what entries do you have on the smoothwall for the ip of the device? Should tell you whether the devices are reaching the smoothwall or not.
  12. probably mavhc, something about open source and compatibility of chalk...
  13. It's in the plans apparently, but how long will you have to wait?
  14. Here's one for anybody who had concerns about installing software with an iffy name! https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/08/28/gimp_open_source_image_editor_forked_to_fix_problematic_name/
  15. It doesn't sound unrealistic, however, I'd allow time for delays, you don't want to book your fitters, and then your floor layer is ill and pushes everything back a week for example.
  16. The office need to update their bookmark
  17. Have you checked it from an unfiltered connection like a mobile hotspot? Make sure it's your end first!
  18. It depends on the school. All teachers are issued an iPad, all ta's and iPod, across all schools. Some schools issue all teachers a laptop as well. All classrooms have a teaching pc, either standalone or an OPS unit in the IWB. All SMT and mobile staff have a desktop and laptop, most have a school issued phone and/or iPad as well.
  19. Don't let logic get in the way of a conspiracy! Clearly the engineer was a master of sleight-of-hand and planted the evidence!
  20. I would go down the route of a portable monitor as @DalekSec suggested, or a tablet with a large screen running VNC, for a completely wireless option.
  21. Welcome along, sounds like you have a lot of plates to keep spinning!
  22. I'm still waiting for my upgradathon prize @DJ-1701
  23. Hook up a monitor to the vga to see if it does the same, will see whether it's the projector doing some weird eco thing or the pc.
  24. Tamron have had incredible glass for years, I use vintage Tamron glass for the bulk of my photography!
