Business Wi-Fi. Surveyed, then installed.
Full bars and no internet? The access point is rarely the problem. It is how the Wi-Fi was planned, cabled and set up.
- Every site heat mapped
- Guest Wi-Fi kept apart
- Cat 6 cabling

Cyber Essentials PlusGood Wi-Fi on a poor line is still poor.
A big download figure on an advert tells you one thing out of three. What your site needs depends on what your business does.
Calls go first. Every time.
If your phones run over the network, we set quality of service on the line. Calls get priority over everything else, so a big download never breaks up a conversation.
We map the building. Then we place the access points.
- We start with your floor planA drawing of the building, every floor.
- We survey on siteWith survey equipment, room by room.
- We place each access pointWhere the map says, not where the cable happens to be.
- No cold spotsCoverage proven before anything is fitted.
Coverage in every room. Capacity for everyone in it.

The access point we fit.
Streams are how many conversations an access point can hold at the same moment. More streams, less waiting.
Staff, guests and devices. Each on their own network.
Ten people checking email need very little. A room full of visitors streaming needs an access point built for it. We size for who is actually on it.

Every network nearby is competing with yours.
Crowded channel. Slow Wi-Fi.Clear channel. Fast Wi-Fi.
Every network near you shares the same few channels. We scan them and put yours on a clear one.
Survey first. Access points last.
- Teams consultation
- Guide price
- Heat map survey
- Cat 6 cabling
- Fit, tune and test
Access points are wired in Cat 6 and run on the same platform as your firewall, cameras and doors, so you see all of it on one screen.
Two buildings. One broadband line.
- One broadband lineIt comes into the main building only.
- One link through the airA dish on each roof, pointed at the other.
- Two buildings onlineThe second needs no line of its own.
We have fitted links in difficult places, including near airfields, and we know the rules that apply.

Business Wi-Fi, answered plainly.
Why do I have full signal but no internet?
Signal only tells you the access point is close. The line into the building may be too small for what the site is doing, the access point may have too many people on it, or it may be on a channel crowded by neighbouring networks.
What is a Wi-Fi heat map survey?
We take a plan of your building and survey it on site with measuring equipment. The result is a map showing where the signal is strong, weak or missing, and where each access point needs to go.
What is latency, and why does it matter?
It is the time data takes to leave your device, reach the other end and come back. Phone calls and video need it low. A line can have a large download figure and still feel slow if the latency is high.
Do we need guest Wi-Fi?
If visitors connect, yes. It keeps their devices apart from your business ones, and lets us limit how much of your connection they can use.
Why does my device keep dropping as I move around?
Without a controller, a device holds on to the access point it first joined, even when a closer one is available. A controller manages the handover from one access point to the next.
Can you use our existing cabling?
If it is Cat 6 and in the right places, yes. If the heat map says an access point belongs somewhere else, we run new cable to it.
Can you link two buildings without a cable?
Yes, with a point-to-point link. It needs a clear line of sight and the right equipment for the distance, and some sites have rules to follow. We survey it first.
