Whole-Home Wi-Fi Coverage
Smart homes are only as smart as their Wi-Fi. We survey your space, place access points where they belong, and backhaul with Ethernet to avoid mesh slowdowns. The result: strong, even coverage for streaming, work calls, cameras, consoles, and automations.
- AP placement & channel tuning: Avoids interference and sticky clients.
- Ethernet backhaul: Mesh where necessary, wires where it counts.
- Roaming that works: Seamless movement across rooms and floors.
Smart Devices & IoT (Done Safely)
Door locks, thermostats, bulbs, plugs, speakers—convenient, but many ship with weak defaults and patchy updates. We set up automations and voice assistants without exposing your private devices.
- IoT segmentation: Put smart gadgets on their own network so they can’t see laptops or family photos. See Network Security & Hardening.
- Guest access: Simple Wi-Fi for visitors; no access to local devices.
- Reliable automations: Key routines keep working even if internet drops.
Doorbell & Cameras
Clear notifications, clean wiring, and footage when you need it. We install doorbells and cameras with the right power and network path so they stay online.
- Power & networking: PoE where possible for stability; strong upstream for uploads.
- Privacy & retention: Configure motion zones and choose local NVR or cloud.
- Integration: Tie alerts into your smart displays or lighting scenes.
TV Mounting & Home Theatre
From a clean living-room mount to a full media room. We handle placement, cable management, and tuning so picture and sound feel effortless.
- TV mounting: Stud-secure, centered, cables hidden, smart remote setup.
- Audio: Soundbar, 3.1/5.1, or Atmos—balanced to your room.
- Streaming sanity: Calibrated apps, profiles, and network priorities for smooth playback.
Game Room & Multi-Room LAN
Cut the lag. We wire the rooms that need speed (consoles, PCs, media closets) and shape traffic so downloads don’t crush ping times.
- Fast LAN runs: Cat6/Cat6a drops to desks, consoles, and TVs.
- Low-latency tuning: QoS/Smart Queue to keep games and calls smooth.
- Per-room parental controls: Profiles and schedules by room or device.
