Wi-Fi Access Point Installation in Milton

A UniFi network across a 270,000 square foot facility: racks on columns, PoE switching, access points over the floor and offices, and 200 cameras, intercoms and access control on the same network, installed in phases while the plant kept shipping.

Yes. Minimum data rates, fast roaming and AP placement are set for devices moving at speed, and we test with a scanner on a moving forklift before we leave.

Yes, with a bridge or buried run and an access point in the barn, on the same network and controller.

Roughly one per floor of a house, one per 1,500 to 2,000 square feet of open office, one per 20 to 30 devices where people gather, and one every 25 to 40 metres down a warehouse aisle. Walls, in-floor heating, stone and glass change the number, which is why we survey before we quote.

A wired access point every time. Mesh kits relay traffic over the air, so every hop halves the speed and adds delay. Access points on Cat6 give full speed in every room. We only use a wireless link where a cable truly cannot go, and then we use a proper point-to-point bridge.

Yes, in bridge mode or as the modem only. The gateway we install does the routing, firewall and VLANs, the access points do the Wi-Fi, and the provider's box just hands over the connection. You can switch providers later without touching the network.

A single AP mounted, cabled and configured is $450 to $750, additional APs $300 to $500 each. A home or small office with two or three APs, a PoE switch and gateway is $1,500 to $3,200; an office of four to eight APs $3,500 to $8,500. Fixed after the survey.

Not on UniFi or TP-Link Omada: you own the controller and the software. Cisco Meraki and some managed services carry a per-device licence; we propose those only when an IT standard needs them, and we show both costs over five years.

Yes. Cat6 or Cat6a to every access point position, through ceilings, walls and conduit, terminated on a patch panel and tested. Cabling is most of the work and most of the difference.

Wi-Fi 6 is the sensible default for most homes and offices today. 6E and 7 add the 6 GHz band, which is worth it in dense offices, for newer laptops and phones, and anywhere you want headroom for ten years. The cabling is the same either way, so the upgrade later is just the AP.

Yes. A guest network on its own VLAN with client isolation and, if you want it, a branded captive portal with a daily password or a sign-in page. Staff, cameras and smart devices each get their own network too.

Yes. Every access point broadcasts the same names, and we tune roaming so phones and laptops hand off to the nearest AP without dropping a call. That handoff is the thing most self-installs get wrong.

Yes. A buried Cat6 or fibre run where the distance allows, otherwise a point-to-point wireless bridge up to several kilometres, then an access point in the far building. Repeaters and extenders are not on the list.

A home or office up to eight access points is usually one day including cabling. Warehouses with lift work and offices over eight APs run two to four days, phased so nobody loses Wi-Fi during the day.

Yes. Aisle-by-aisle design with directional or high-gain APs, roaming tuned for scanners moving on forklifts, coverage in the trailers at the dock, and a separate network for the warehouse management system. We install from lifts around your shifts.

Because the bottleneck is between the router and your device, not between the router and the internet. One router in a corner, a wall or a floor in the way, too many devices on one radio and a crowded channel all cut a 1 Gbps plan to 50 Mbps in the far room. Wired access points in each zone remove the bottleneck; we measure it before and after.

Yes. Offices, restaurants and clinics are usually done outside business hours, and the cutover from the old Wi-Fi takes about an hour with the old network left up until the new one is measured.

Yes, if they are business-grade (UniFi, Omada, Meraki, Aruba) and suit the building. We survey first, tell you if the count or the model is wrong, and warranty our work either way.

Yes. We audit the controller, cabling and AP positions, reuse what is sound, re-cable or re-position what is not, and hand you admin access that belongs to you.

Hardware carries the manufacturer's warranty, one to five years depending on the brand. Our cabling, mounting, terminations and configuration carry a three-year workmanship warranty.
