Describe the oddities?
Providing the devices are on the same internet connection there shouldn't be an issue unless there are blackspot. Strong internet is key to shared iPad.
1:1 iPads across a campus plus 4 sets of shared iPads [a new setup for us here], so I have 1 older Mac Mini still running the Server app, and 1 newer-than-that-one Mini caching because I turned it on in Preferences - these are both in server rooms in different buildings.
I also turned on caching on a few other Macs across campus [a few Apple silicon Minis, and iMac or three....8 buildings]
The iPads ARE seeing the caches, caches seem to be communicating.
But we've seen some REAL oddities with the shared iPad carts [this is our first year with them]... which makes me wonder if I have made the caching far more complicated than it should be.
Any advice? Any resources? Any Dad jokes?
