RVA Technology Solutions offers Wi-Fi network design. Planning wireless coverage, capacity, and performance to meet the needs of users, devices, and applications within a space. This includes evaluating building layout, construction materials, user density, and types of devices to determine proper access point placement, antenna selection, and transmit power levels. A well-designed Wi-Fi network avoids common issues such as dead zones, overlapping interference, and congestion by balancing coverage with capacity and ensuring seamless roaming throughout the environment.
Modern Wi-Fi networks support a wide range of capabilities beyond basic internet access. With standards like Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E, networks can handle high device densities, deliver faster speeds, and improve efficiency for real-time applications such as video conferencing, VoIP, and cloud services. Advanced features such as quality of service (QoS), VLAN segmentation, security encryption, and centralized management allow administrators to control traffic, protect data, and scale the network as needs grow. When designed correctly, a Wi-Fi network becomes a reliable, high-performance extension of the wired infrastructure rather than a convenience-only solution.
Questions About WiFi
The short answer is yes. It is always best to hard wire buildings together with a backbone network of fiber optic cable. When this is absolutley not feasible, we can create what is called a point-to-point bridge where a signal is beamed between two special bridge access points. With the right equipment and circumstances, we can get a connection up to a mile away.
While we could, we typically don’t for the fact that most of our solutions are geared toward small businesses with enterprise class hardware. This costs more than the average person would care to spend on home wifi.
Wi-Fi can be secure when it is properly designed and configured. Using modern security standards such as WPA3 (or WPA2-Enterprise), strong encryption, unique credentials, network segmentation, and regular updates makes Wi-Fi suitable for business and sensitive use.
Absolutely not. Catagory wire like Cat6 and Fiber optic cable supplies the backbone of the networks in which the WiFi is connected to. Hard wired is still the most reliable and fastest connection, which is why it isn’t a replacement for.
Yes. It can be done depending on the platform technology being used.
