802-WHAT…?
When in AV (Audio Visual) we are often met by three-letter acronyms. And sometimes it’s just numbers. In this article it’s the numbers 8, 0 and 2.

Why can’t I forward a calendar invite to an MTR room
One of the hardest things to explain when teaching a course in Teams Room Systems is why a calendar invite a person receives can’t be forwarded to a room so that a “Join Now” button appears in the room console in the room. There are a couple of misunderstandings here. First of all, the problem […]
Change from user to room mailbox in Exchange online
Sometimes we see installations where everything looks good on the MTR room console, you can make and receive Teams calls but the calendar isn’t syncing. The reason for this can be that the account logging in to the MTR system has been set up as an ordinary user and then had a Teams Room License […]
