 There was significant issues that occurred in regards to networking. Firstly, the laptops were connected through WiFi which displeased [[Matthew Stratford|Matthew]] and [[Andrew Waddle|Andrew]] greatly. This was likely caused by the fact the A/V control software kept on disconnecting, a better WiFi AP would probably have resolved this slight issue. [[Rhys Milling|Rhys]] attempted to resolve this by connecting them all to OB2's switch but this resulted in the laptop's unable to get IP addresses. This was not ideal. It appeared that none of the laptop's could discover the DHCP server, reasons are still unknown to this day, although it was likely a faulty config file made by [[Rhys Milling|Rhys]] and a DNS server issue. So in order to resolve this issue we had to setup each laptop to use a static IP address instead which thankfully resolved the lack of connectivity and allowed us to vision mix to our hearts content.
 ===The OB unit that wasn't grounded===
-During setup of the computing infrastructure [[Rhys Milling|Rhys]] had first noticed this issue when plugging in equipment into OB1 but didn't let it phase him thinking it was just a static shock. That happened early during the setup, so after all the extra equipment had been plugged in it had caused this shock to be left a little bit more. [[Rhys Milling|Rhys]] was attempting to plug an SDI cable in from OB1 complaining that there was an issue with it but sadly his cries were disregarded by [[Andrew Waddle|Andrew]] and [[Ben Allen|Ben]] saying that they experience it all the time in the studio! After enough complaining by [[Rhys Milling|Rhys]], [[Andrew Waddle|Andrew]] attempted the final connection of the SDI cable, thinking it was fine at first then ZAP! He reeled in pain and then the tech team decided it wasn't a good idea to use that OB unit anymore so we had to quickly deploy Marty the third OB unit which up until now was reserved until emergencies. So it was quickly prepped for graphics playout where it was then discovered it didn't have any graphics software installed, so [[Rhys Milling|Rhys]] and [[Ben Allen|Ben]] worked against the clock to get it ready to playout graphics! Luckily it was setup and did its job without fault.
