๐ŸŽฅ I recorded a quick video with @JuniperNetworks about the AP Packet Capture options available in Mist! It was actually the dynamic packet capture feature that first made me sit up and take notice of Mist as a wireless vendor years ago โ€” and it's still one of the standout capabilities that sets them apart today. From streamlined troubleshooting to smarter diagnostics, Mist continues to lead the way when it comes to AP packet capture innovation. Check out the video to see it in action ๐Ÿ‘‡

Look at this crew of wireless legends! We snapped this shot during the CWNE group photo at #WLPCPrague, and itโ€™s always a highlight to see so many certified pros in one place. Thank you to everyone who stepped up for the photo and for the work you do every day to push wireless networking forward. The CWNP community is stronger than ever! #CWNP #CWNE #WLPC2025 #WiFiPros #WirelessLeadership #GetCertified #WLPCPrague

Very proud of my daughter writing this but it has been heartbreaking living it for 3 years #pans #panda #PansPandasAwarenessDay
I donโ€™t normally use social media to share personal family matters, but today is an exception โ€” and I hope youโ€™ll take a moment to read this, as itโ€™s incredibly important to me. Today is PANS/PANDAS Awareness Dayโ€” a condition my daughter has been suffering from for the past three years. Itโ€™s a condition that has turned our familyโ€™s life upside down and has been stealing my daughterโ€™s childhood. While PANS/PANDAS is treatable, it is often misdiagnosed. In the UK, itโ€™s still not officially recognised, which means accessing the right treatment is almost impossible. My daughter, Anna (13), wanted to do something special for Awareness Day to help others understand what living with PANS/PANDAS feels like. She wrote a poem โ€” entirely in her own words โ€” that is honest, brave, and deeply moving. It breaks my heart, but Iโ€™m also incredibly proud of her strength and courage in sharing it. Thank you for taking the time to read and help raise awareness. ๐Ÿ’› #PANSPANDASawareness #LightUp4PANS

Got my hands on the @JuniperNetworks EX4000 at MistFits London! At the recent Juniper MistFits event in London, I finally had the chance to get hands-on with the EX4000 switch โ€” and it definitely lived up to expectations. This compact yet powerful switch offers an impressive feature set in a small form factor, making it a serious contender for my ideal lab switch. In this unboxing video, I share my initial impressions and highlight some of the features that stood out to me. ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Disclosure: The EX4000 was provided to me free of charge by Juniper Networks. All views and opinions shared are entirely my own. Check out the video here ๐Ÿ‘‡
