@gjacobse I'm dealing with a MFP device that prints but wrong font so everything's all messed on formatting; AND then they also want it to fax; through a Grandstream ATA to a SIP service and that keep failing. Trying to convince them to move to an HTTPS fax service instead
We have several desk MFPs, as well as office MFPs,.. and Zebra's.. whee.. oh the fun. Yea,.. time to move to a fax service - modernize that analog crap.

Printers (and their evil offspring FAX) need to die a horrible death
Don’t disagree, but I don’t get that choice… no faxes,.. but plenty of printers. But that’s a shipping environment.
Been a few days but dang near made the local news again- in a bad way. Forklift took out a beam within 30ft of the main six inch gas line… yikes! Glad it missed. No, it wasn’t me.
Shutting down the previous warehouse this week and moving it to the new,.. mad scramble really starts now… getting printers moved and reset. Need printers for shipping.
Gonna be fun. Oh- and still no heat, and it’s in the 30’s and light snow.

Good news, bad news, good news...
Good news, I found the dea mouse that had been stinking out or storeroom
Bad news, it was in the box of HDMI cables
Good news, only one cable that wasn't still in its plastic bag had dead mouse sticky on it
“Seems odd to have a whole box of defective HDMI cables, guess we should throw them out and order new.”

Unintentional post storm walk,… office I was at for training has no power, generator won’t start either… build been down since mid afternoon Friday now.
Walking the warehouse may have found previously unknown roof damage. That’ll add to the Monday stress…
That's always fun.
Uhm yea…
They didn’t know. Flat roof issues. They have 50# bags of sand up to hold the membrane down until they can get more time on it.. it’ll likely go to insurance or the investment group …

Currently watch time pass… one click at a time. Fam is playing board games while I meander around the house not breaking a toe.
Severe weather rolled through today and while heading home took the power. Going on four hours now.
Can at least charge phones and keep things going,.. feel lucky as it could have been worse.. check the house tomorrow.
@PhlipElder said in MS Edge and pop-ups:
@gjacobse Sorry I wasn't clear. At some point the user was looking for something and clicked on a link in the results that then inserted something into Edge that causes the pop-ups.
We've seen it often enough that we've added search training to our Train the Human regimen.
That - I can see.
This isn’t random searching- this is using valid, confirm, approved business site that we sell to or the travel site we use for marketing and conference travels.
I don't use Edge... and for many good reasons. Even with it being build off of Chromium / Chrome.
I've used it mainly as a MS / Azure / O365 Admin since I had to have user and Admin level sessions going over using incognito mode in Chrome.
User is having a site issue that it doesn't work in Chrome but works in Edge - but they are getting Pop-ups in Edge even with the Pop-Up blocker enabled under settings.
I've cycled through a few things but haven't gotten to the cache / reset as they are sloow to respond.
What else could I have them try - because else it's Edge and I haven't much of a care....
They just dropped off the 300kW generator for the lower half of the warehouse.
There is stock area for climate controller and refrigerated items….
IT will get a separate generator before long.
Found the issue with the assistance of Eaton Support.
The Remote Power On/Off connector - jumper- is missing.
Needs this jumper to power on
That seems like an odd product stream,.. I do see them, but not exactly why. Why isn’t or wouldn’t a standard VoIP phone, or cell phone?
I saw reference to Verizon and Yealink listing the OneTalk T67LTE (2021)….

Of course it’s just a ten minute job,..
Of course doing all that will only take 10 minutes.....
In who's wildest dreams?
The planning part.
That’s where I start by mapping out the cabling and what not and then just start ripping it out without care… that’s ten minutes (grin) then hours and days figuring out how to re-connect everything.
(Edit to remove mobile phone hic-ups)
Planning out a full de-rack and reconfiguration of the cabinet so the server will fit in it correctly. The front posts are set to far in and the server hits the rear doors…
Of course it’s just a ten minute job,..
Ah well,.. just one more thing to do on a Saturday.
It is possible that I heard of winget prior to this last week,.. but regardless - I was shown winget this past week. While I have done some poking around with it I'm only just starting to compare winget to choco.
There is likely some differences between the two, what applications are or are not available.
And I can see benefits to using both to manage applications that aren't on the other platform.
Are there any suggestions on use, comparisons and such one might offer?

Dealing with AT&T and Voice Mail issues. For the last few years I seem to have some delivery issues with voicemails being received in a timely manner.
It's sometimes fifteen to thirty minutes to get a voicemail notification on my phone. The kicker was on the 30th taking twenty-five hours before I received the notification.... UN-REAL.
So, reset the network settings, they reset the voicemail completely... I went from a four digit pin to a seven digit pin.. annoying!
And since... I've not received one single voicemail notification. The little message indicator showed nothing. Manually dial voicemail... THIRTEEN MESSAGES!
WH- The- Actual F
So,.. back to the Support calls I go.
There is another way to solve this problem.
You can set up call forwarding to another service, instead of the cell phone providers voicemail.I do it by forwarding directly to pbx voicemail instead. That way the messages are now in the digital domain. The pbx will email the audio messages, which means I can listen to them without a cell, I can store them, I can forward them to someone else. So many options.
Why would I want to do that, with the added cost and management of a PBX? Seems like a lot of extra work and cost for a fundamental basic service.
