Professional Office (Anchorage)
An office in Midtown Anchorage was struggling with dropped video calls, weak signal in meeting rooms, and slow internet speeds despite paying for a gigabit connection. Kismet AK audited their gear, re-cabled access points, and configured dual-band routing.
The Challenge
The client had a consumer-grade router located in a back storage room, forcing wireless signals to pass through multiple concrete firewall barriers. Employees suffered daily disconnections, and guests and staff were sharing the same insecure password-less local network.
Our Approach
We ran high-quality Cat6 ethernet cables from the back room to ceiling-mounted commercial access points placed centrally in the main workspace and meeting rooms. We separated the network into two virtual LANs: one encrypted and restricted to staff computers, and one isolated, throttled network for guest access.
Project Results
- Zero dropped Zoom or Teams connections since installation
- Consistent 300Mbps+ Wi-Fi speeds throughout the entire suite
- Isolated guest network protecting internal files from unauthorized client devices
- Centralized cloud console to monitor network performance and reboot gear remotely
