Services

Network services for businesses in Maryland, DC, and Northern Virginia.

Design, Wi-Fi, firewalls and remote access, troubleshooting, and cabling, with server and virtualization work available as needed. We are vendor-neutral: we recommend what fits, and we work with the equipment you already have. Work is scoped in writing after an assessment.

01Design and build

Network design and implementation

A network planned around how your office works, then installed cleanly and documented.

Good fit if: you are opening or moving an office, outgrowing a consumer router, or inheriting a network no one understands.

What's included (7)
  • LAN, wireless, and WAN design, including PoE and multi-gigabit uplink planning
  • Switch, router, and firewall installation across major vendors, including Cisco, Juniper, Ubiquiti, Netgate, and MikroTik
  • VLANs, segmentation, and IP addressing schemes
  • Multi-site connectivity with VPNs and tunnels
  • Rack installation and cleanup
  • Performance tuning for speed and reliability
  • Written documentation of the finished network
02Wireless

Business Wi-Fi

Coverage that holds up where people actually work, with guests kept off the staff network.

Good fit if: Wi-Fi drops in some rooms, slows down at busy times, or guests share your office network.

What's included (7)
  • Planning for Wi-Fi 6, 6E, and 7, including 6 GHz where devices support it
  • Enterprise-grade access point installation
  • Wireless heatmaps and coverage planning
  • Access point placement and optimization
  • Interference and roaming troubleshooting
  • Guest networks with access controls
  • Tuning for high-density areas such as meeting rooms
03Security and access

Firewalls and secure remote access

A firewall policy written for your business, and remote access that does not rely on open ports.

Good fit if: staff work from home, you have a default-settings firewall, or you cannot say what is allowed in and out.

What's included (6)
  • Firewall configuration: rules, NAT, segmentation, and policies
  • Remote access with WireGuard, IPsec, or zero-trust access tools, with multi-factor authentication where supported
  • Secure Wi-Fi with WPA3 where supported, and guest isolation
  • Access management and device hardening
  • Blocking unneeded ports and unverified devices
  • A review of your current firewall setup, with written recommendations
04Diagnosis

Network troubleshooting

Find the cause of a slow, unstable, or failing network and write down what was found.

Good fit if: you have recurring drops, slow links, or an outage that was patched but never explained.

What's included (5)
  • Remote and onsite troubleshooting
  • Slow-network diagnosis and performance analysis
  • Wi-Fi interference and coverage problems
  • Switch, routing, and VLAN faults
  • A written summary of cause and fix
05Physical layer

Structured cabling

Clean, labeled, tested cabling, because a network is only as steady as the wire under it.

Good fit if: you are adding rooms or desks, replacing damaged runs, or cleaning up a closet.

What's included (6)
  • Cat6 and Cat6A installation, and fiber where needed
  • Patch panel installation and labeling
  • Cable routing and rack management
  • Replacement of damaged or outdated cabling
  • Testing and certification of runs
  • Wall plates and expansion of existing wiring
06Infrastructure, also available

Virtualization and server infrastructure

Virtual servers designed around your workload, with the network and backups planned alongside them.

Good fit if: you are consolidating servers, outgrowing an old host, or reviewing your hypervisor platform and licensing.

What's included (5)
  • Virtual server design and deployment on VMware, Proxmox, or another platform that fits your needs
  • Host, storage, and NAS planning
  • Virtual networking: VLANs, virtual switches, and secure access to the environment
  • Backup and recovery designed for virtual machines
  • Container hosting where it fits, such as Docker managed with Portainer
+Beyond the network

Other work, scoped case by case

These sit next to the core services. Ask, and we will tell you whether we can help.

  • IP camera networks and recorder setup
  • Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace setup
  • Ongoing support after a project, with scope and response times agreed in writing
Built to current standards

Designs that fit how offices work today.

Hybrid staff, cloud services, and guest devices are the norm. We design for them from the start.

  • Wi-FiPlanned for Wi-Fi 6, 6E, and 7, including 6 GHz where your devices support it.
  • Remote accessWireGuard or IPsec VPN, or zero-trust access tools, with multi-factor authentication where supported.
  • SegmentationStaff, guest, voice, camera, and server traffic on separate networks.
  • Security baselineYour firewall and network settings reviewed, with written recommendations.
  • InfrastructureVirtualized servers with backup and recovery designed in from the start.

What a network assessment covers.

An assessment is how most projects begin. You describe what is happening, we review your setup, and you get a written scope before any work starts. What we look at depends on your office and your problem.

What we look at

  • What equipment you have and how it is connected
  • IP addressing, DHCP, and VLAN layout
  • Wi-Fi coverage and settings
  • Firewall rules and remote access
  • Cabling, patching, and the state of your rack or closet
  • What is documented today, and what is missing

What you get

  • A written summary of what we found, in plain English
  • A diagram of your network as we found it
  • A list of what to fix first, and what can wait
  • A written scope and quote for any work you choose to go ahead with

Nothing starts until you agree to it in writing.
