Wireless Bridge Link

It is increasingly common to require internet access to remote locations, farm buildings, the home office/studio or games room.

Telephone engineer Ipswich have a lot of experience in providing this link. The simplest and very often the best value option is wireless, requiring a wireless point to point device at each location, which can be several hundred metres apart, or as much as 5 Kms. Multiple links are possible and no significant loss of data transfer rates and complete security. Wireless links do require line of sight from point to point, our engineers will provide a full site survey and advice on the best solution.

What to plan before you book

Where you need WiFi

List the rooms, floors and outside spaces where people need a signal, and where it drops today. A plan of the building, even a rough sketch, makes the survey quicker.

How many devices connect

Count phones, laptops, TVs, cameras and smart devices, and think about busy times. A home with a few devices needs a different system from a hotel or office where many people connect at once.

What the walls are made of

Thick stone or brick walls, steel frames and foil-backed insulation all block WiFi. Mention them, and any extension or outbuilding, so the units are placed where they work.

Guest and business networks

Decide whether visitors or guests need their own network kept apart from yours. If you plan to collect guests' details when they log in, data protection law applies to how you collect and keep them.

Good to know

WiFi is only as fast as the broadband

Better WiFi spreads the connection you have around the building; it cannot make the broadband line itself faster. That is why the broadband is checked first.

A cable back to the router helps

Mesh units and access points work best with a network cable back to the router or switch. Where a cable cannot run, units link wirelessly, which works well with good placement.

Wireless bridges need line of sight

A point to point link needs a clear view between the two ends. Trees, buildings and even new growth in summer can get in the way, which the survey takes into account.

Keep the system up to date

Access points and routers need software updates to stay secure. A managed system lets updates and problems be dealt with remotely.
