Question 1

Why is my office Wi-Fi slow even with a fast internet plan?

Accepted Answer

Many reasons could explain slow Wi-Fi — from construction to signal interference, distance, and even water can drastically reduce signal strength and speed.

Question 2

How do I set up a secure guest Wi-Fi network for my business?

Accepted Answer

That is typically one of the easiest things to do. Call us and we will take care of everything. Most vendors support it out of the box.

Question 3

What is the difference between a mesh network and a traditional router?

Accepted Answer

Traditional routers hold on to your device even when out of range. Mesh devices are smart and negotiate between themselves to give you the best speed and reliability as you move around.

Question 4

How far can a Wi-Fi signal reliably reach in a home or office?

Accepted Answer

That depends on construction and technology — anywhere from 6 feet to 1,000 feet. A quick site review determines how many units are needed and the best way to connect them.

Question 5

Do powerline adapters work as a substitute for running ethernet cable?

Accepted Answer

While powerline adapters have improved greatly, they cannot match the stability and speed of a wired connection. When running cable is not possible, powerline can be an acceptable option.
