Frequently Asked Questions
What is involved in setting up a new network?
Setting up a network involves planning, installing and configuring the necessary equipment to allow multiple devices to communicate with each other and access the internet. This includes routers, modems, switches, cabling, Wi-Fi access points and security settings. A technician will assess your space and requirements, then install the hardware and configure it for optimal speed and coverage. For larger networks, segmentation, IP planning and performance monitoring may also be implemented. The setup can be tailored to home, office or business environments, ensuring strong, reliable connectivity across all your devices. Proper setup ensures smooth operation and reduces the risk of connectivity issues later.
How do I know if my network is secure?
A secure network includes encrypted connections, strong passwords, firewalls, updated firmware and limited access points. If your network hasn’t been reviewed recently or if you’re using default passwords or outdated hardware, it could be vulnerable to breaches. Signs of a weak network include slow speeds, frequent dropouts or unexpected device activity. A technician can audit your setup, check for vulnerabilities and recommend changes to improve security. Basic security includes setting up WPA3 encryption, using a secure firewall, changing default login credentials and restricting guest access. Regular updates and monitoring help ensure your network stays secure and performs reliably over time.
How can I extend my network coverage?
You can extend network coverage using devices like Wi-Fi extenders, mesh systems or additional access points. The best method depends on your space, device layout and type of usage. Mesh systems are ideal for larger homes or offices, providing seamless handoff between nodes. Extenders work well for boosting signal into dead zones. Sometimes a better router or repositioning equipment can help. A technician can assess weak spots and recommend the most cost-effective solution. It’s also important to minimise signal interference and use modern hardware. Extending coverage ensures a stable connection for all your devices, whether you’re working, streaming or gaming.
