Business Internet & Failover in Papakura & Takanini
A second internet connection that takes over when fibre drops.
Business Internet & Failover for businesses and homes in Papakura & Takanini: we come to you, do the job on site and test it with you before we leave.
Network jobs are dominated by new builds: pre-wiring homes and commercial buildings before the linings go up, fit-out cabling, fibre between buildings, warehouse Wi-Fi and CCTV for new yards. New businesses often add a firewall and backup internet from the start rather than after the first outage. Older Papakura shops need tidy-ups.
- Failover tested by disconnecting the main link
- Priority rules set for the systems that matter most
- Both connections and their account details recorded
