Locate Lync Lapses with a Look
I love the story of the old engineer called in from retirement to fix something at the factory only to have his $20,000 invoice for 5 minutes’ work questioned by the bean-counters. When asked for a breakdown of the charges he submitted “Chalk mark: $1, knowing where to put it: $19,999”. (Snopes says it’s a …

A Fix for Lync Poor Audio Quality
One of my colleagues has been investigating complaints of poor audio quality at a customer’s site this week. Lync’s QoE reports are blaming dropped packets, but the network team says they’re not seeing any packet loss – so what gives? It would seem to be the Intel NIC driver that’s at fault – update the …

Set-SfBClientWarnings.ps1
I recently rebuilt my PC and was annoyed by Skype for Business popping all of the newbie nag messages that I’d previously suppressed. “There has to be a way to suppress these en-masse” I say to myself. Whilst trawling through the Registry to find them it also occurred to me that when I’m delivering end-user …
Lync 2013 Client Update – April 2014
Hot on the heels of the oft-confusing March Client update (with its seemingly inconsistent version numbering), here’s a juicy April offering with lots of identified fixes. Conspicuous by its absence is any reverting of the emoticons to the animated, unambiguous & friendly pre-SP1 ones, but let’s not harp on about that. This update takes us …
