@JaredBusch Yes they are static assign /29 IP's from the ISP.
In the draytek you specify the IP's you have and then use the NAT screen to open ports on each IP to a local IP on the network.

Just wanted to check a similar thing can be done with the EdgeRouter.

And yes I know the EdgeRouter has no modem, just want to check if Bridge mode would work or would I need to assign the Modem an IP and the others to the EdgeRouter.

We've decided to just add users as we book things out.

😞 I wish I had more experience to help you. I try to avoid overhead if at all possible.

@larsen161 Can't as it's part of a WiFi portal, but just about to start from scratch and will post if i need help once i've got it in my head lol

Have a good afternoon!

I haven't seen this, but I've used it only from a Linux machine.

If it does continue to disconnect, possibly update the firmware on all devices to the latest.

Got to say just made two calls to Microsoft Licensing to get the KMS keys for windows 10 and Server 2012 for the KMS server and both calls took 5 minutes each and keys added with no issues and as I watched the screen 😄

That was my experience as well - it was super easy.

@scottalanmiller I almost never use them. A few service accounts and that's about it.

To boot they don't know how to update the macro to work in LibreOffice.

That's like learning anything new. Heck even version upgrades where things change 😉

We do have all our users being Sync'd to Office365 at the moment with the sync tool, would that work?

Azure AD is what Office 365 uses behind the scenes. O365 hosted products are all on Azure.

Wow that's a decently long outage

I just don't give out the private wifi key. 🙂 Works a lot here.

What's to stop people from simply getting it off their laptop (or their colleague's laptop)?

What happens is the moment I see your personal device on my network, you hear about it.

If I see it again, your manager hears about it.

Or...

Look up similar specs on Ebay. And then depending on age, mark it up 10-30%.

mark it up? I would think mark it down (assuming a direct sale) because ebay and paypal eat into the sale price.

Leaves room if buyer wants to bargain. And there's always the chance that somebody will pay what you actually ask for it.
A real life example: a little over a year ago I planned to but iPad Air 2, and I wanted to sell or trade iPad 3. I put it up on Craigslist for $250, I was ready to go down to $200-$210 (I'm greedy, I know). BestBuy was giving me $181 I think. Almost every offer I got was in the $75-$150 range. The max I was able to get after negotiations was $180. I traded it in at BestBuy anyway, and got to keep the charger.

So SAM - what's the generic title for a jack-of-all-trades IT person then?

Who does Systems and Network Administration for a majority of their time.

At my last job, I did. It was roughly split half and half. I'd spend half my time chasing down network issues and tweaking switch configurations and adjusting VLANs as needed on a campus with ~800 students and 200 staff / faculty. The other half of the time was spent working on servers doing upgrades, updates, and checking to make sure backups worked. For my first year or so there, I did a lot of desk-side support, but that tapered off after we got the IT team to have good folks in that role.

At 1K+ staff you are starting to edge away from the SMB. That starts to warrant a networking title. Maybe Networking Tech, but networking. Certainly if you really top 50% of workload.

It was ~1k End-users in all. (Just out of curiosity): Does it matter to you that 800 of them were students, and only ~200 of them were Facutly and/or staff -- or do you lump them all together into the "End user" category?

From an IT perspective, is there any difference? IT normally refers to uses, not categories of users. Except other IT staff and/or developers as a special group, sometimes.

Faculty will always be more of a pain because they need "special" access to servers, applications, and networks. I'd consider them separate from an IT perspective just because of the extra headaches they cause.

Yes but there are always pools of high pain users and low pain users in any business. The percentages are probably similar.

Does your roll out slowly still plan to be done by July 30?

Well yes and no. We will only do office machines not POS machines so the number is more like 150-200 machines 😄
But also we will only do them when we can and as many as we can lol.
