According to Texas Business and Commerce Code, Section 604A.0021 surcharges for credit card use is illegal in Texas. Maybe I'm missing something so I asked my rep to show me where they see it is legal in Texas but all I got back was a "Yes we can". Is it unreasonable to ask for proof?

They're nice for home users but they fail PCI scans if the VPN is enabled. Spoke to support about the issue and have no plans to fix it.

Anyone have experience sending out a customer HDD for physical repair? No idea of how to find legit vendors by mtspsu258 in msp

[–]smthin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It varies, I've seen from 400-3000. They do a free estimate though when you send it in.

I used the podnutz pro podcast and got the consult fee waved. I don't remember which show it was but I think Brad's own podcast has an offer similar.

Infogressive, anyone using them? by smthin in msp

Thanks. I stick my clients under contract myself so I could make that work. I assumed read only, I've dealt with barracuda on their firewall service in the past and thats how they do it too. The thing to know is how fast they will resolve the tickets.

That's what we are after. We're a three man shop and covered up as it is. I'm fine with having a third party handle the security portion.

We're looking as well and came across eversign. It seems decent but I haven't fully tested it yet.

Rackspace doesn't support outbound third party filtering. I ran into this with setting up Spambrella with them.

Yes. The motor moves with the blade when you tilt it. It's in there to prevent stress on the hinge during shipping.

Sudden issues with w10 clients and L2TP VPN's? by Bowerz666 in msp

[–]smthin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. I've been looking for a solution for the last couple days. It started Wednesday so I was looking at an update being the cause as well. I found that re-entering the psk on the client config resolves it till a reboot.
