A quick update from me...

Many of you know me through JL Wi-Fi & Network Solutions, but the truth is that most of my time these days is spent helping businesses with broadband, VoIP and connectivity through Orbicomm.

After a lot of thought, we've decided to bring everything together under one brand. It makes things simpler, clearer and better reflects where the business is today.

Whilst the branding will be changing, everything else remains the same. The same people, the same service and the same commitment to looking after our customers.

Thanks to everyone who's been part of the journey so far. The next chapter starts with Orbicomm, and I'm really looking forward to sharing what we've been working on.

Another whole home Wi-Fi solution. This is a high end property that is being completely refurbished. Thankfully, the developers and electricians have considered the Wi-Fi and networking.

More Wi-Fi access points doesn't always mean better Wi-Fi. In many cases, too many access points create interference, poor roaming and inconsistent performance. The best wireless networks are carefully designed, not simply filled with hardware.

Work in progress at a job in Birmingham on behalf of a developer. Some re-jigging in the cab required, a couple of Sonos amps, and a CCTV recorder. Coming together.

Another whole-home WiFi upgrade completed with a UniFi system.

The customer had been relying on a mesh WiFi setup, but coverage and performance just weren't consistent throughout the property. With a larger home, wireless mesh systems can struggle as each device has to pass data from one access point to another.

For this installation, we used a UniFi Dream Router with professionally installed wired access points throughout the house. Because each access point is connected back to the network with a cable, every one of them delivers the full available speed and a much more reliable connection.

The result is seamless WiFi coverage throughout the property, better performance for streaming and video calls, and fewer frustrating dropouts. Sometimes the best WiFi isn't about adding more wireless devices, it's about getting the infrastructure right.

A quick 'off the cuff' example of why Wi-Fi channel selection is so important. The AI optimisation tool within Unifi is awesome!

If you use a better example when talking to clients, please let me know 😊 If this example is crap, let me know!

A recent installation near Hereford where Starlink provided the main internet connection for a rural farm property with no decent fixed line broadband available.

We paired the Starlink residential service with a UniFi network to provide reliable Wi‑Fi coverage throughout the main property. This gave the client much better connectivity and a more usable internet experience in a location where traditional services were falling short.

To make the most of the connection, we also used Ubiquiti NanoBeams in a point-to-point setup to share the service with a neighbouring family property. This provided a practical and cost-effective way to extend the connection without needing a separate broadband service.

The result was fast internet, strong coverage and a more efficient setup across multiple buildings, giving the client a much better long-term solution for rural connectivity.

I thought I'd better get back to posting a little bit of work following a break from the socials over the summer!

This is becoming a fairly typical installation for us: Starlink paired with a full UniFi network solution.

When we install Wi Fi alongside Starlink, we consistently see a noticeably better wireless experience — mainly due to improved roaming — when Starlink is placed into bypass mode and the network is managed through a full UniFi Wi Fi solution.

The UniFi Cloud Gateway also gives us remote visibility, making it much easier to support clients proactively and resolve issues without always needing to visit site.
For this installation, we used a UniFi Dream Router Pro for routing, with an additional access point powered from its PoE port.

The client was delighted with the result: download speeds of around 100 Mbps on the residential package — roughly ten times faster than they were previously able to achieve on fixed wired services in rural Herefordshire.

A little demonstration of seamless Wi-Fi roaming. Demonstrated using the Ubiquiti 'WiFiman' app and several Unifi AP's.

With multiple access points and properly configured roaming features (802.11r, 802.11k and 802.11v), you can achieve fast, seamless handovers between access points for true wall-to-wall Wi-Fi coverage.

Perfect for Wi-Fi calls when you're constantly on the move—without those annoying dropouts as you walk around your home or business.

Yet another Unifi router and Wi-Fi install.

This client's existing BT router and Wi-Fi access point was in the back of a wardrobe! No wonder the Wi-Fi wasn't great. The router and the existing cabling couldn't be moved but we installed 3 access points in open space. This has improved the Wi-Fi, massively. 

Along with the Wi-Fi improvements, we also removed an old 'Fast Ethernet' switch. This device was acting as a big bottleneck not exploiting the full potential of the 1Gbps incoming fibre. 

It's amazing the setups that you find out there. 

The biggest buzz for the client, post installation, was being able use all of his Sonos speakers in all rooms, in sync 💪. Sounded awesome.

Ceiling mounted AP. Central in the house in open space.

Sonos 'Move'. Sounded incredible.
