Network jacks in the walls, but nothing works when you plug in? I terminate, repair and test the wiring you already have: wall jacks, patch panels, the structured wiring panel in newer homes, and the connections back to your router or switch. Every jack labelled and tested before I leave. I work with existing cable only; I don't pull new cable through walls.
Wi-Fi is shared, and walls, floors and neighbours' networks all cut into it. If your home or office already has network cable in the walls, putting it to work is often the cheapest speed upgrade you can make: anything that doesn't move gets a better connection from a cable, and every device you take off Wi-Fi leaves more room for the phones and laptops that need it.
I work with network cable that's already installed. I don't pull or fish new cable through walls or ceilings; for new runs, a cabling installer is the right call, and I can set up and test the network once their cable is in. Anything involving 120V power, outlets or the electrical panel is work for a licensed electrician.

“Very knowledgeable and well-trained. Diagnosed the issue quickly and got me high speed wifi in my upstairs rooms in less than an hour”
No. I work with cable that's already in your walls: terminating and repairing wall jacks, patch panels and structured wiring panels, and testing every run. For brand-new cable runs, a cabling installer is the right call, and I can set up the network once their cable is in.
Usually, yes. It's common in newer homes: cable was run to several rooms and back to a panel in the basement, but never connected. I identify each cable, terminate it properly, connect it to your router or a switch, and test every jack.
Yes. Every run I terminate or repair is tested end to end before the job is closed, so you know each wall jack actually works at speed.
No. Anything involving 120V power, new outlets or the electrical panel is work for a licensed electrician.
For anything that stays in one place, such as desktops, TVs, game consoles, office printers and Wi-Fi access points, a cable is faster, more stable and frees up your Wi-Fi for phones and laptops. Most homes and offices do best with both.
It depends on how many jacks and ports need work and what condition the wiring is in. You get a free estimate and a firm quote before any work starts: call, email, or use the form.
