New fibre, wireless or Starlink internet connected, secured and every device reconnected.
Internet Setup & Provider Changeover for businesses and homes in Mt Eden & Mt Albert: we come to you, do the job on site and test it with you before we leave.
Network work in Mt Eden and Mt Albert is usually in older buildings: running cable through ceilings or under floors to a back office, adding data points, fitting a small rack, and setting up separate guest Wi-Fi for shops and clinics. Homeowners ask for CCTV covering the driveway and front door, and for wired access points in thick-walled houses.
From $135 + GST + $30 call-out ($185.25 incl. GST)
- The old router's settings recorded before it is unplugged
- Each connected device checked once the new connection is live
- Wi-Fi name, password and router login written down for you
Internet Setup & Provider Changeover for homes in Mt Eden & Mt Albert
The area is full of villas, bungalows and 1930s to 1950s homes, many built from or around volcanic stone, brick and solid timber. Home offices are common, and families often have several people streaming and on video calls at once. A cabled access point or two, and moving the router out of a cupboard, usually fixes coverage more reliably than extenders.

Internet Setup & Provider Changeover in Mt Eden & Mt Albert: questions
Why is my Wi-Fi poor in an old stone or brick house?
Stone, brick and solid timber absorb wireless signal. The usual fix is to run a cable from the router to an access point in the part of the house that struggles, rather than adding more wireless extenders.
Do you help home-based businesses?
Yes. Many people in Mt Eden, Mt Albert and Sandringham run a business from home. We set up the office network, backups, printing and Microsoft 365 just as we would for a larger office.
Do you cover Mt Roskill and Three Kings?
Yes. We cover Mt Eden, Mt Albert, Sandringham, Balmoral, Three Kings and Mt Roskill, for homes and businesses. Let us know whether it is a house, a shop or an office, and where the router or comms cupboard sits.
Do you do internet setup & provider changeover in Mt Eden?
Yes. We cover all of Mt Eden & Mt Albert, including Mt Eden, Mt Albert, Sandringham, Balmoral, Three Kings, Mt Roskill.
How do you avoid a gap when we change provider?
We ask the new provider to connect before the old service ends, set up the new router alongside the old one, then move devices across at a quiet time. The old connection stays as a fallback until everything has been tested on the new one.
