AX7 VM - 500 Error

Few days ago, I have installed AX7 on my local box and it was working fine.

However, when I opened it today, I got Error 500 while opening home page (https://usnconeboxax1aos.cloud.onebox.dynamics.com/en/).

Looks like it is an issue with the date/time. Here are the steps I followed:

  1. In my windows 10, I have noted date, time and timezone
  2. Restarted and logged into AX7 by selecting AX7 boot option
  3. opened date/time settings
  4. changed time zone option to match with my win10 OS settings
  5. Next sync time with internet time (shown below)
  6. screenshot -->
  7. After successful sync, you can now login to AX7 successfully



My system setup: I have three OS options at the time of booting. 1) Windows 10 2) AX 2012 R3 VM 3) AX7 VM

Reliance JIO Jiofi2 - Review

Today, I got a Jiofi with the help of my friend Uday. It is the new version of the device with OLED display.

My devices - Desktop, Windows 10 laptop, Meizu M2 Note, Samsung tab P3100

24-Sep-2016 update (Final):
  • JIOFI speeds are pathetic even when it shows 4 bars in the JIOFI device
  • Jio TV app very frequently fails to connect on my phone. Sometimes, I have to open app, connect to my JIOFI and then connect to my home wifi to see the channel. I guess JIOFI is not able to provide require bandwidth. But once connection is made, the app is not checking whether i am using JIO network or home wifi on a continuous basis.
I decided not to use it anymore, far from my initial thoughts of using it as my primary internet source. May be i will give it to one of my enthusiastic friends who wants to try the JIO experience.

19-Sep-2016: First impression:
  • Device is sleek and good looking.
  • Initially, speed on my phone is ~50 Kbps but improved after placing it another room
  • Connection seems to be dropping but reconnecting quickly. Need to check while I am working on remote desktop as it will be easily confirmed if connection is erratic or not
  • What caught my eye is "Designed in India" at the back. Usability could be better. To press POWER button to see the display is not convenient. Instead, the JIO logo could have been a capacitive button to light up the screen.
  • I am getting 6 - 11 Mbps on my laptop and 2-3 Mbps on my phone (Tests done using speedtest.net, You have to note that the server used during testing was hosted by JIO. I am not sure whether it has any relevance to speedtest). Note: In my area (Aarambh township, Lingampally, Hyderabad, India - 500 019), network connectivity is very bad (I have Airtel which is very poor, despite reaching out to their open network initiative there is no response or action taken)

Conclusion: 
  • Low speeds on phone but decent on laptop. Will check phone settings and update later
  • Not yet ready to replace my wired internet with this, need more testing
