Issue joining Windows 11 devices to Entra (native Entra join - not hybrid)

We’ve got Entra Hybrid join working reliably and the enrolment to Intune takes place afterwards, so I know the Entra Device Settings and Intune Enrolment is configured correctly.

But I want to start moving away from this and natively joining Entra during OOBE or via Autopilot.

Here’s the rundown and the issue….

Windows 11 25H2 fresh image from ISO

During OOBE we select Join Work or School

Enter M365 username and password

Choose the account to join Entra

Just get spinning blue dots forever. No error message, no timeout.

Note: the user has a Business Premium licence, max number of devices is set to 50, no Device Registration Service entry appears in sign in logs. We have also excluded this user from Conditional Access and tried another user with the same result.

Note: I can join the exact same device without changing anything locally, to another tenant in exactly the same way and it works perfectly.

I think there is something wrong with the Device Registration Service on our tenant.

Anyone experienced the same issue and resolved it?

This has been logged with Microsoft but I’m not getting anywhere - they keep asking me the same basic questions and I’ve provided logs from the device. Not getting much help.

Thanks

Limited space - options for board change

We have an 80s consumer unit and need to get it replaced - it was not the tidiest/safest install by the looks of it. It is a 1960s bungalow and only have 4x circuits - sockets, lights, immersion and cooker.

I want RCBOs, SPD, a new radial to garage (internal) and another to the sheds (armoured) and ideally a couple of spare ways.

Recently had the main fuse changed, cut off installed and upgraded tails.

But, we are extremely limited for space - this lot is all inside a shallow cupboard and is the width of a 27” door frame - there is some space to the right of the consumer unit but it is behind the stud wall of the cupboard and you can’t get a screwdriver in as it is only about 8” deep.

What options will fit in existing location or am I looking at relocating the board?

What is max permitted length of main tails from meter to board?

Can pull back the T&E for each circuit in the loft as easy to identify the various wires and/or could extend if required?

Can a consumer unit be installed in a lean to with a Perspex roof or must it be located inside the main property walls?

Thanks

Apple Music tracks in the living room….

In my home office I currently have iTunes on my PC and play tracks I have downloaded via my Apple Music subscription on the PC speakers.

I also use my iPhone via CarPlay in the car to play Apple Music tracks - again downloaded to my phone.

The key here is ‘downloaded’ not streamed.

What options do I have for playing music in the living room - from Apple Music and downloaded to a device.

How much memory does the Apple TV have? can I download my music to it and play locally from the device through the TV speakers?

Also been looking at the Eversolo Play because that connects to Apple Music - my question is the same can I download and store music on the device to play locally via bookshelf speakers?

My music library consumes around 75Gb.

This used to work fine - no issues whatsoever. We have not changed anything in our environment except a SonicWall firmware applied at the beginning of April.

We have 4x Windows 11 PCs at the main site and a Synology NAS at the remote site. We were using Windows backup to backup sys images of each PC to a shared folder on the NAS. We have 1Gb/1Gb lines at both sites.

Since the beginning of April, as soon as the backup starts running, our Papercut Ricoh printers at the main site lose connection with the Papercut server VM (port 9192) that is sitting in Azure - there is another vpn tunnel setup on the same sonicwall.

As soon as the backup is stopped, they reconnect.

So we tried using VEEAM backup instead, and using the traffic throttling setting reduced down as far as 50mbps - still the same issue.

What has changed in the SonicWall firmware?

Is the DPI/IDS/IPS struggling to work with the backup traffic?
