Think I'm the only one in my friendship circle who thought it looked very cringy, lack of gameplay footage, didn't seem that interesting? I'll be surprised if it comes out in 2025 too.

So strangely after about 10-15 reboots, it connected and its now happy. It could well be just a very long first boot up/firmware update. Shouldn't take an hour though surely.

hmmm If i hook one of these up through my mobile data, it works fine (well its flashing orange but then going no further hmm) but on smoothwall I just get a solid orange light. I was expecting a flashing white light to say cant connect. Bit of a dead end at the moment!

I'm now trying to get these to work Did yours just show a solid orange light?

Yep Youtube completely blocked for students. Teachers access only.

I feel a bit better then! Ours are coming up to 10 years old and I'm getting nervous!

Cheers. It seems to check and download them but not update. Wonder if its a GPO setting or a further powershell command needed.

So I had to update the app installer app in microsoft store for the Teams app to install via the MSIX package. However. What I have found is if one user logs into teams, signs out of both Teams and their machine, then someone else uses that machine, teams remembers their credentials and you can easily log in. It's not the worst thing in the world as we only use teams with staff on their own dedicated devices but might be an issue for those who share?

Hi all Anyone know a way of setting Microsoft store updates to run automatically after imaging either through MDT or maybe powershell command?

Just globally set all passwords to Password1 . Sorted.

Create gold image in VM, take snapshot so its easy to return in case of an error, sysprep, PXE boot to capture image I use that wim in MDT and then have task sequences depending on scenario. These task sequences call to PDQ and install staff or student specific apps depending on task sequence. I also periodically inject the latest Windows updates so the install period is shorter .

For you who are getting new stuff, how old is the kit you are upgrading from?

Silly question but how do you setup notifications? through portal.smoothwall.cloud I usually just log in and run a report

Which smart sockets? I used the tp link ones and they work fine

If I get A3 for all staff and students, does this include the ability to do intune licencing for 50 iPads that are shared? Or is this charged on top?

Arrgghhh, we use the Meraki 100 free for some ipads. *bookmarks thread*

Do you mean the actual computer time or OWA?

Actually on the back of this, what would you buy for a music suite? Are SoundBlaster's a thing anymore??

What's the software called? AXIS Camera Station?

Odd one this The head shares her calendar with her PA and since the clocks changed in October, a lot of the meetings have changed to Casablanca time and shifted an hour. Everything is set as London +0 UTC Has anyone ever come across this before? Seems to only be the head affected!!

Hi all We have a few dozen Trendnet CCTV cameras, they're just basic IP CCTV cameras really. It uses their EVO/Luxriot monitor software however that has no licence. So what do people use for CCTV viewing/recording etc? BlueIris?

We used Unified Communications | Transforming Business Comms| FourNet for our Cambium setup. Not sure if they could help for one off bits?

Yeah we've just started buying from ICT Direct and very happy about the stock.

Comptia and Microsoft Learn would be the starting points I guess

I have 3 kids and I bought a Meta Quest 2 so I can escape from them. - - - Updated - - - I have a Series S for the kids and they/I love it. If you're happy getting game pass and buying digitally, its a steal at that price.
