Client Requirements

The client required a secure, managed WiFi network solution for their personal residence and exclusive holiday accommodation in north Herefordshire.

Planning

We reviewed the requirements and set about designing a network to supply WiFi access to all areas of the main house,  linking the main network to 7 external buildings located throughout the estate, and ensuring there were sufficient WiFi access points in each building.

Installation

Using our network plan we installed over 30 wireless access points, throughout 8 buildings, enabling hard wired sockets in key areas such as the office in the main house, TV and phone locations in the main house and dedicated points in the estate office 500m away. We linked the estate office and 6 other buildings including the lodges, holiday let buildings and stables, with reliable Point to Point connectivity.

We configured two WiFi networks across the estate, one for the client’s secure home and business and one for the use of the guests.

Conclusion

Our client can now access their secure home and business network in all the areas we promised, without worrying about 3rd parties accessing sensitive information, or accessing company computer equipment.

We have since connected a further 2 holiday properties to the network, to include WiFi coverage in 2 swimming pool areas and we continue to manage the network and IT services for the estate.
