No, Using the Admin/GPO you can set the ones which by default are allowed - so you would set the google ones that you need

Yes this is a Chrome thing, having a lot of friends asking about this as started turning up on their machines too. I let them know that they are the ones which agreed to the notifications, but I would disable them through GPO and then inform staff as well on a bulletin type thing as seeing it more outside of work too

Hoorah, working again now. Thank you

We have used Zen for about 15 years, never looked back. Moved with them through broadband to LME to current Cable connection. Would really recommend, and like @ibpalle, when we did need to ring them about an issue their support teams know nearly everything about their systems so not just talking to "ticket-logging first line people". Longest we have been down is when moving from one product to another at a weekend.

On the website is also the DISM/GPO setting to help as well, as you may just need that

How do you install Adobe Reader ? We used to do this through group Policy via an MSI which had been configured using their configurator, then you should be able to set this as default during the configuration >> https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Wizard/WizardDC/index.html

Good Morning @synaesthesia for your comment and I would like to say thank you to @mhaddock for yours but as I did not get to read it before it was taken away. I would have liked to have seen your comment about VPN as this does affect us too. @elsiegee40 - why was the comment taken away ?

Good Afternoon people We have a Wireless network but we are not sure how secure it is due to having no documentation from the last IT guy, it just worked so no-one queried it. Is there any minimum regulations that the DfE require or can we set it up the most secure we can (proabably call in WiFi specilaist for this) as not planning to replace the equipment if we can help it. Note - no suggestions on equipment manufacturers yet as what we have may be sufficient just may need re-configuring, but if not I know I will get the normal responses of Ubiquiti / Ruckus / Meraki ... answers when I ask for it. Thanks

BLIMEY !

Hi, the Nest uses geolocation on the phones (when app installed) to detect whether home or away, and also the thermostat has motion detection on it too. You can put the app on many phones, so if the main person goes out it doesn't turn the schedule off until all phones are away and then gives it 20 mins or so, just in case you have popped to shops :-) Again we can put the heating on when on the way home so nice when home, esle it uses the schedule. We never have a problem with it, and no subscription which is best too

I can only respond as using Nest - but it uses your internet to get back to their network which you then login to using the app, it then shows you your device (and in the case of mine my cameras in the house too) No VPN needed. I do have all house IoT devices on their own wifi SSID VLAN so no one in the house can muck around with them, unless logged into my account

I have Nest and it works a treat. I still have TRVs on all the Rads though so I can still change the temp in a room if I feel like it, and it does similar to the Tado and detects when you are Home/Away and learns in the first couple of months your routine and creates the Boiler times for you

25Mbps on a 100Mbps network sounds about right 60Mbps over 450Mbps wireless network sounds about right too Now if you had 1GB LAN I would expect higher speeds

I would lean to some form of power saving on the PC

Hi Just curious anyone else having issues with Latest Threads ticker since New year. I have tried in numerous browsers (proxy on and off) and private/incognito sessions but it does not come on again. It seems to be on all pages (Home/Forums/Blogs etc etc). Any help greatly appreciated
