Can all your team get wireless access within any location in your office?
Wireless access is something almost every member of staff needs to work and perform basic tasks. Office spaces are all shapes and sizes. Your business could be a series of small rooms or an entire building. Your staff will all want the same level of access to your network despite where their desk happens to be. So, you probably need more than one router, but that’s when it gets complicated and more problems can occur. Multiple routers can conflict with one another if there are incorrectly placed.

Finding a solution to cover all areas of your office with optimum wireless access is a job for a professional. We know the ins and outs of how to set up wireless access across your entire business. Helping you avoid discrepancies with both wiring and router specifications. Our trusted technicians will ensure you get the most efficient wireless routing solution designed for you. Basing this around your requirements ensuring an improved wireless network that meets your business’ individual needs.

Can your WiFi support all your users at once?

A router only replicates a certain amount of bandwidth, controlling the speed of your service. When more users are connected to a specific router, they consume more of the available bandwidth. The increased traffic could negatively impact your business’ and staff productivity, and potentially even disrupt your connection completely causing chaos.

It goes without saying that you must understand the limitations that your routers have, it is crucial to consider how many users will be accessing each one at any given time. We appreciate it’s not always easy to work these details out and there can be other factors to consider. SMG Business Solutions Ltd can help your business optimize router deployment so that your users have consistent access to your WiFi at all times, increasing both productivity and efficiency across the board.

How strict should your wireless login credentials be?

Last but not least, your business must ensure optimal security across all your wireless networks. Potential threats, like viruses and malware, are capable of infiltrating unsecured WiFi networks and spread their infections like wildfire. Putting all personal and business devices that connect to your WiFi in danger; not to mention your organization’s data infrastructure.
