      @RojoLoco Thanks! I don't know why it was signed off on. Its the same person that does our phone system. She just asked to come look at it this morning. I get there and I see a converter box plugged into the aux jack. The converter box is goes to a mic jack on the wall for reference. She didnt have the right cable to go from wall to mixer so I had to go find one of those. After that it worked fine, for being a cheap mixer.

      I couldnt tell what brand mixer it was but who designs a lecturne system with a mixer that doesn't have a single xlr/mic jack on it. Its maddening. She should have known better but they definitely should have known better.

              @jmoore a lecturne system really only needs 1 channel of mic preamp. Those will have XLR and TRS out, plus input/output levels. If it's just 1 mic, you don't actually need a multi channel mixer.

                @RojoLoco Yeah true. I can, however, see the need if they want to play music or a vhs/dvd over the house sound there. Someone wants to occasionally. My issue is that for something primarily used as a podium , talking to 500 people when the room is full, it doesn't have a single mic jack on it and only trs and a stereo rca pair on it.

                  @Dashrender I try to help her with solutions when I can. I sent her links to Atlas and Bogen sound products so she could familiarize herself with products. I still end up fixing messes like this though. Ok let me correct, its not fixed as I would rip the whole mixer out and replace it but they don't want to spend extra money now.

                    @jmoore true. In many applications, I find that regular pro audio gear is a far simpler and less expensive solution than full on contractor/install type gear (like Bogen, etc). But it totally depends on the specific needs.

                      For the record - I work with restaurants . Not fucking phones. I know nothing about PBX, Phone systems, Nothing of that sort. My job is to keep Restaurants up, working and making money. - That's it.
                      The Office has one person ( Service Manager) who takes care of the equipment. (This comes from the owner - too many cooks in the kitchen type bull shit)

                      @DustinB3403 @scottalanmiller : I was told::: It was either The old server that we just changed - gave the PC a IP address, and that PC was the powered off since the switch, with it coming on it created The IP Conflict, restarting the phones and computer in question resolved the issue, and haven't had an issue with the phones. ( this is what i Was told when I asked.) *Kind of makes sense, but wouldn't DHCP be flushed at shut down?
                      or
                      The something held on to the IP from DHCP and caused the issue- WE got it back up and going though, so he isnt looking into it.

                      Regardless that was the only thing that was changed and how it was presented to me when I asked.

                        DHCP isn't flushed ever (really) but you can have DHCP leases expire and get renewed. The life of a DHCP lease is what could cause a client to get an IP address, go offline and have another statically assigned device come online and use the same address.

                        IP conflicts are generally because 1 device has a reservation, while another device is statically assigned and both are on the same network at the same time.

                            Creating a fresh Win 10 VM for Hyper-V training/documentation and listening to Sleep. Also hoping Sleep's guitarist doesn't lose another toe to the diabeetus, he just canceled his other band's tour that kicked off here on Thursday.

                              Trying to find the value of some stamps (well a selection of about 4000)
                              Just to see if I can find one that's worth £1000000000 😄

                                      Trying to select a switch for the Stores.
                                      Find one then change my mind, look for something else and think "do I really need this advanced"??

                                      Requirements are:-
                                      Web Managed
                                      24port
                                      Non-PoE and PoE Version
                                      Layer 3 lite/Layer2+ is a bonus (so I can do some simple routing)

                                      Keep going from
                                      Ubiquiti 24 Lite (£160 ish)
                                      HP Office Connect 1920 (£120 ish)
                                      Netgear GS724Tv4 (£106 ish)

                                      Then PoE version
                                      Ubiquiti 24 (£390)
                                      HP Office Connect 1920 PoE (£253)
                                      Netgear GS724TPv2 PoE (£205)

                                      But then Netgear have the prosafe range 🙂

                                      guess I just need to pick one and stick to it 🙂
