Don’t VPN for Me, Argentina (EP 915)
from Uncle Marv's IT Business Podcast (Real Talk for IT Pros & MSPs) · host Marvin Bee
I share the latest MSP field story—helping a client whose remote staffer in Argentina couldn’t connect via VPN. What starts as a routine setup turns into a wild ride through blocked IPs, throttled Starlink connections, and Argentina’s secret war on VPNs. Hear how Ubiquiti’s VPN options, Microsoft 365 authentication quirks, and a dash of Duo MFA finally kept the user online.We’ll also chat about the latest MSP headlines, including ConnectWise patches, DefensX’s AI-enhanced secure browser, and cybersecurity reminders for October. Of course, there’s gear talk—the Red Tiger dash cam and its challenger, the VIOFO A229—and updates on my upcoming appearances at ASCII Edge and IT Nation Connect.
