Most Wi-Fi Problems Are Cabling Problems
People buy a better router, then a mesh system, then a range extender, and the far end of the house is still dropping out. Besser brick core filled walls — which is most newer construction up here — are very effective at stopping a Wi-Fi signal.
The fix is usually a cabled access point at the other end of the house rather than more radios shouting through concrete. One cable run solves what three gadgets could not.
What Cabling Gets You
Where a physical connection still beats wireless.
A Home Office That Holds Up
Video calls that do not drop when someone starts streaming. If you work from home, this is the one that pays for itself fastest.
Access Points, Not Extenders
A range extender halves your bandwidth. A cabled access point does not. It is the difference between patching the problem and fixing it.
Ready for What Comes Next
Security cameras, TVs, streaming boxes and smart controls all prefer a cable. Running it while walls are open costs almost nothing.

Do It With the Rest of the Electrical
Data cabling is dramatically cheaper when we are already in your ceiling. If you have power points, lighting, fans or a switchboard on the list, add the data points to the same visit — the attendance and the access are already paid for.
Great communication, great work, fair prices. They told us they do domestic electrical work so we’ll definitely be contacting them for future works. Highly recommended.— Alexander G.
Needed some electrical work done in a short time period. Shane came out, checked what needed doing, was prompt and professional. Anthony came 2 days later and did the work very professionally. Highly recommended, 10/10.— David B.
Friendly, professional and excellent service. Will recommend to anyone, and will use again!— Kerry B.
Frequently asked questions.
What people ask about data cabling.
Why would I cable when I have Wi-Fi?
For anything that matters — a home office, a TV that buffers, a security system. Wi-Fi shares bandwidth and struggles through core filled walls, which is most newer construction in Darwin. A cable does not care.
Will cabling fix my Wi-Fi dead spots?
Yes, and better than any gadget will. A cabled access point at the far end of the house gives full-strength coverage there. A range extender halves your bandwidth to do a worse job.
What cable do you use?
Cat6 as standard for new work. It handles current speeds comfortably and gives you headroom, and the price difference over older cable is not worth saving.
Can you do it in an existing house?
Usually, depending on ceiling and wall access. Besser brick core filled walls make some routes impractical, which is why we look at it on site before quoting.
Do you do offices as well as homes?
Yes — small business fit-outs, patch panels, desk points and equipment racks. Larger commercial projects we will be upfront about if they are outside what we take on.
Can it be done at the same time as other electrical work?
Yes, and it should be. If we are already in the ceiling for lighting, fans or power points, adding data points is a fraction of the cost of a separate visit.

Wi-Fi dropping out at the back of the house?
