Get Enterprise-Grade Wi-Fi Network Performance in Your Home
Today’s Modern Homes Require a Higher Level of Network
It's no secret that homes have more and more connected devices every year. Consider all the smartphones, computers, scanners, and tablets you may use in your home for school and work. Then think about other devices like smart speakers, thermostat, and connected appliances. It's clear that home Wi-Fi networks are being pushed to their limits.
But the strains on home networks go beyond the number of devices. Video in functions like Zoom conferencing, remote classes, and 4K streaming on Netflix and Youtube requires large amounts of bandwidth. If your family uses many of these things simultaneously, you need a network that can keep up.
The solution for busy, sophisticated smart homes in Denver, CO, lies in a higher-grade network solution, unlike the consumer solutions you get from your internet provider or Amazon and big-box stores. Read on to learn more about improving your home network with commercial-grade solutions.

Enterprise-Grade Components
Most consumer and internet provider networking equipment are all-in-one solutions bundling routing, switching, Wi-Fi, and the modem (connection to the internet) in one box. While convenient, this approach doesn't deliver best-in-class solutions. Much like audiophiles love separate components built for high performance and long-term reliability, separate network components achieve similar objectives. Aurum Home Technology partners with the best names in enterprise-grade networking, using switches, security devices, and Wi-Fi access points like those in offices and banks. These components are stress-tested for long-term reliability and are highly configurable for the specific needs of large residences with unique challenges. In addition, these systems include more robust firewalls and other protection tools to ensure your home network stays safe from hacking and malware.
Wi-Fi Calling
Wi-Fi calling has become increasingly popular in recent years and is available with many smartphones and mobile service plans. With Wi-Fi calling, you can make and receive calls over your Wi-Fi network rather than relying solely on your cellular network. This can be particularly useful if your home is in an outlying area or there is an area in your home with a weak cellular signal. Wi-Fi calling will result in fewer dropped calls and better call quality as you move around your home and property. An enterprise-quality network with properly configured Wi-Fi access points is essential for optimized Wi-Fi voice communications.
Professional Design, Configuration, and Installation
Every home is unique, and networking solutions are not one size fits all. Our trained experts analyze your home, its layout, construction, and all its connected devices. In some cases, wired connections are necessary to ensure the best performance. Smart video cameras typically require network cabling, and smart TVs and home theaters also benefit from wired vs. Wi-Fi connections for the best performance and reliability. We use sophisticated software tools to choose the best locations to install wireless access points, so your portable devices can roam freely around your property – even outdoors – while enjoying robust connectivity.
Enterprise-grade networks can also be monitored and managed remotely, enabling our team to spot and fix a problem before you even know an issue occurred. The remote management features allow us to monitor your network health, spot any potential hacking or suspicious access, update software and firmware for fixes and improved performance and restart devices if needed.
