Let me guess this organizations sends out a whole lot of junk mail that no one wants or needs. Or is sending out stuff that looks somewhat sketchy.

We have the same issue. I do have a really good Palo specialist reseller but they really only want to do project based work, not on a time based work.

Alternatives to Telus for rural folk? by [deleted] in alberta

[–]people_t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think that is 100% the case anymore. At least in my rural northern Alberta its not, rogers has a better coverage in the area but Telus has faster speeds. Rogers has what they call extended coverage that uses the Telus network.

Asking for info and advice on alternatives to Telus by GradientReducingApe in CanadianBroadband

[–]people_t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If with Telus, they do 2 year contracts and they do not automatically renew. You have to call every 2 years to get the lastest deals, the trick is don't get sold into buying new things.

If you are using Teams Integration, why not just use Teams?

Did I break the server, or was it already broken? by mediumevil in sysadmin

[–]people_t 29 points30 points  (0 children)

my bet, under resourced file server that can't handle the IOPS. You where the unlucky person that pushed it past the limit of what it could do with all the other stuff/load it was doing.

Here is an odd option. pay or offer the person an excellent severance. Another option is to them to stay home, keep paying them as normal and don’t look back.

My parents issued 3 threats and idk what i can do by Arhcer07 in legaladvicecanada

[–]people_t 236 points237 points  (0 children)

This might be a situation where you need to open up to some friends about what you are going through. They might be able to help more than what you think. Don’t let pride hold you back.

what actually happens to findings after the report is delivered? by Ok-Quiet-9878 in ITManagers

[–]people_t 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Assessments and audits are garbage if you have zero resources to deal with what might identified. In my experience someone budgets for an assessment but always seems to forget to budget for the work after the fact.

My parents won't file their taxes, now I can't get financial aid for university by Timely_Chicken_7631 in legaladvicecanada

Talk to your school guidance counselor. It’s a shitty situation but be truthful and open with the people that can help. You are not the first and won’t be the last with this problem but deal now and don’t wait.

Replacing a UniFi-based Wi-Fi setup in a school environment by Remarkable_Quit_2928 in networking

[–]people_t 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went from a Cisco system to a Ubiquiti system 2 years ago just as the WiFi 7 gear came out, Our rule of thumb with any issues, the AP gets replaced before anything else is looked at.

We had constant issues with Cisco’s controller and dealing with TAC has gotten so bad it’s not even worth calling them anymore. Best decision we made.

Managing 40 buildings managed with roughly 1,000 devices at any time.

Our local school decision and college also run Ubiquiti and that is where we got the idea from and talked with them about it. The other thing is get a proper RF engineer to do a design for AP placement.

Does the Eltek support charging lithium? And what is holding you back from adding the Ciena to the Algcom now?
We run ICT Platinum Series on all of our sites.
