Professional WiFi and network for homes and flats
WiFi that reaches every room, the terrace and the study with quality, without repeaters or dropped video calls.
In short: In a flat we install a compact UniFi gateway, wired access points in key areas (living room, hallway, bedrooms), network outlets for fixed devices and separate networks for guests and smart-home.
Common situations
Does any of this sound familiar?
- Rooms at the back or the terrace have poor coverage.
- You work from home and video calls drop.
- You have many smart-home devices and want to separate them.
- The ISP router is by the front door and doesn't reach.

Building
In flats we don't modify the building's door entry system; security is planned inside the home.

Questions about homes and flats
How many access points does a flat need?
In a flat of around 90 m² one or two well-placed, wired access points are usually enough; long flats or penthouses with terraces sometimes need three.
Can I keep using my ISP's router?
Yes, in many cases we leave it as a simple fibre converter or replace it if the ISP allows.
Your WiFi doesn't reach the whole home?
We measure it and propose the exact solution for your home.
