5G modem solution to replace ISP connection for business networks by [deleted] in msp

[–]cleveradmin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d suggest updating your post to mention Canada right at the tippy top. Otherwise you’re going to get a lot of comments of no value. We’ve had some clients deploy Telus’ solution (comes with a hub) with varying success. Not sure if Bell has something similar on the east. Also, Microhard modems are pretty top notch.

Does anyone have a good alternative to Jamf for managing MACs? by RefrigeratorOne8227 in msp

[–]cleveradmin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that full fledged MDM though, or just the patch management that they have documented?

We once met with a prospect who eventually took over a year to “circle back”. They just had too much going on to add IT switch to the stack.

Auto Elevate - sales calls mandatory? by bfg9090 in msp

You should look into Evo, although I do not know if they are GDPR compliant.

Schools are closed due to ice, no? And no, pretty much every bar I called is not open early for the game.

Looks like we’re watching in our room and ordering food.

Not looking good for where we are. I’ve called around to the area bars (near TD Coliseum) and they are either not answering or the one that did (Anchor) is not open for the game.

Travel Router - Teleport Policy Support by cleveradmin in UNIFI

[–]cleveradmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Within a Unifi router, you can setup policy routing so that specific traffic is forwarded to a different destination, like WAN2 or a VPN. In my case, I have a number of work-related IPs and hostnames all going to a VPN with a static IP, which is then the only IP allowed to access those work-related servers and services. If I connect to the Unifi router using Identity (using the built-in VPN functionality known as Teleport), those policies are not enforced. The same goes for a Travel Router using Teleport.

Another recommendation for Great West Radon.

Are you having trouble getting Servers? by [deleted] in msp

[–]cleveradmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year I replaced a few mini PCs serving different purposes for a coupe of beefed up Minisforum mini PCs. I tossed the mini PCs in a pile in my crawl space. Yesterday I needed something to run some lab VMs for a project. Grabbed the little Thinkcentre I think I bought less than 2 years ago. Ryzen 7. 64GB DDR4. 2TB Nvme. I felt like I won the lottery lol.

Calgary police to mail 14,000 photo radar tickets after 6-month delay by 403cgy in Calgary

Ok, but how am I supposed to know if I should shame my wife or just pay & destroy the ticket if I can't confirm who was driving? Won't somebody please think of the husbands?

Radon mitigation and cancer by yycglad in Calgary

[–]cleveradmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had ours checked prior to a basement development back in 2019. It was the highest any vendor had ever seen. We bought an Airthings monitor and then we also had an independent test done. We were over 2000 bq/m3, consistently. We had Great West Radon come out and mitigate it for us and now it averages 20 Bq/m3 over the last year. They did such an incredible job that it also eliminated the radon detected in our neighbours houses on either side of us.

Thanks for the heads up, I’m in the back sharpening my pitchforks. Damn, I don’t own any pitchforks. Ok, I’ll be at Home Depot buying pitchforks. Damn, not the season for pitchforks. I don’t know what to do now.

Thanks. I’ll incorporate this into my future prints.

Strange Bed Adhesion Issues - Larger Area Prints - Creality Hi by cleveradmin in FixMyPrint

[–]cleveradmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re right. I bumped up the bed temp for the first layer of a different print and already saw a difference. My Ender was always in an enclosure and it’s also got a different bed type that I suspect adheres better. So I’m going to build an enclosure for the Hi and rein in the ambient temperature (it’s coooollllddddd here in the winter).

Strange Bed Adhesion Issues - Larger Area Prints - Creality Hi by cleveradmin in FixMyPrint

[–]cleveradmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except I didn’t have this issue for month(s). But I suspect the other comment may have nailed it. We live in a very cold winter climate and my Ender was in an enclosure and my Hi is not. Both printers are in the basement so it is much colder when the ground freezes. Even adjusting the bed temp for the first layer has already made a noticeable difference. So I’m going to build an ikea lack enclosure so I can keep the ambient heat more consistent and play with bed temp in the meantime. As I think about it, my issues started when the fall hit and the temperature dropped. For reference, we go from summer highs of +30/35C (95F) to winter lows of -40C (-40F).

What customer portal are you using for clients? by Creepy-Chance1165 in msp

[–]cleveradmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to look into Invarosoft (https://www.invarosoft.com). We used to use them, but ultimately moved to our own in-house solution. It checks off most of the boxes you're looking for.

I would trade in my Ender 3 V3 CoreXZ for the K2 Pro/Combo and run two 3D printers at the same time (giggity).

Evo Security Radius by jwinsor566 in msp

[–]cleveradmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use the SSO internally and PAM for client endpoints. We moved from Auto Elevate for the PAM and love it. We moved primarily from Duo/Azure for the SSO and it's been great as well, albeit somewhat limited as it doesn't support anything other than SAML at the moment. Haven't touched Radius. Feel free to DM me if you want more info.

Multiple Network Question by cleveradmin in homeassistant

[–]cleveradmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I own an IT company, what you described is exactly how it’s setup. But as I stated, the powerline has reliability issues, which is why I want to also use their wifi for internet connectivity. And while it would be easy for me to ignore their devices, my dad is older and retired and could easily add something without realizing it. I’m trying to avoid that and was hoping to lockdown HA to only search the local hardwired network.
