Home networking setup and troubleshooting

A home network is more than a modem and a router. It’s a process of configuring all your devices to work together harmoniously.

Getting your networked fax/printer to work

These days printers are more powerful but more complicated than their ancient, pre-Internet ancestors. These days, your typical printer will be equipped with a WiFi receiver (or at the very least an Ethernet port) and will be designed to receive print jobs not just from one computer, but from every device in its network. All this is great, but unless a networked printer is properly configured, it can be unreliable and frustrating to use.

Questions nerds often hear about Reliable Home Networking Solutions

Is it expensive to get you to set up my home network?

Nope! Of course, the price is going to depend on your home and how it is set up, but for the most part, good networking technology is surprisingly inexpensive.

I’m having WiFi problems. Will I need cable run through my whole house?

Sometimes, running cable is the only solution, and we can help you do that if it’s required. But it’s not usually required. Most connectivity problems can be solved with the right wireless technology.

Will you teach me to administer my own WiFi network?

Absolutely! As part of our installation service, we’ll sit down with you and give you step by step advice on how to administer a WiFi network properly.

Would Luke Skywalker really survive hypothermia by being stuffed inside a dead tauntaun?

Probably not. And here’s why.

Is remote access safe?

Yes, it is if it’s configured correctly. The only thing to be mindful of is logging out of public machines and keeping a strong password. You could also argue that remote access is actually safer because it keeps your files off servers you don’t control.

Is home networking expensive?

Generally speaking, home networking need not be an expensive service. If you require runs of ethernet cable through your house, this will affect the cost of the service.

My service provider gave me a modem when I signed up for an Internet plan. Should I get a better one?

This really depends on what you’re doing on your home network. The standard modem you’ll get from your service provider is usually very basic. It’s fine if you aren’t doing much with your Internet connection, but if you stream lots of media, use your connection for gaming or have many people using the same Internet connection then you may wish to consider purchasing a better modem and router. We can offer you advice on a good solution.

I hear a lot about the “Internet of Things”. What does that mean exactly?

These days, it isn’t just laptop or desktop computers which uses an Internet connection. All kinds of devices, from toasters to home security services offer Internet connectivity. This greatly increases their convenience because you can use them from an app and you can even integrate them together into a smart home. If you’d like to learn more about the Internet of Things, we’ve got you covered.

Why does my printer just suddenly stop working?

With intermittent problems, the issue is often not the printer itself but rather how it is configured on your home network. We can run a network troubleshooting for you to see if there are any network issues which need to be resolved.
