TechTV Wi-Fi
You may have heard of mesh Wi-Fi — a system where multiple Wi-Fi nodes work together to blanket your home or business in coverage. But not all mesh systems are created equal.
At TechTV, we design and install custom Wi-Fi solutions tailored to your property and internet plan. Many modern mesh systems support Ethernet backhaul, which lets us run Cat6 cabling between nodes. This creates a hybrid setup where some nodes are wireless and others are hardwired — giving you maximum speed, reliability, and coverage.
We can also make use of existing cabling in your home. Many modern houses already have CAT5 or CAT6 runs installed, which we can integrate into your Wi-Fi system for a faster, more stable network.
This setup is especially useful for homes or offices with thick walls, concrete floors, or elevator shafts, where Wi-Fi alone struggles to reach every corner. Wired or hybrid backhaul ensures your mesh nodes can go wherever they’re needed without weak links.
For ultimate performance, we also install Power over Ethernet (PoE) access points paired with cloud-managed gateways (like Ubiquiti). PoE lets each access point get power and data through a single Cat6 cable, and they can even be installed outdoors to extend coverage to patios, gardens, or separate buildings.
Already have a mesh system with Ethernet backhaul? No problem — we can integrate your existing setup by adding the necessary cabling between nodes.
Contact us today to get a permanent solution to your Wi-Fi problems — no more dead zones, slow speeds, or dropped connections.
Frequently Asked Questions
Usually, your internet speed at the modem is fine — the bottleneck is the Wi-Fi itself. Wi-Fi performance depends on several factors:
Wi-Fi version: Newer systems using Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 7 are much faster and more efficient than older Wi-Fi 5 gear. But remember, if your device only supports Wi-Fi 5, it won’t reach the speeds a Wi-Fi 7 system is capable of.
Frequency bands: Wi-Fi works across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and now 6 GHz (with Wi-Fi 6E/7). The 2.4 GHz band has longer range but is slower, while 5 GHz and 6 GHz offer much higher speeds but shorter range. The right setup balances these so you get both coverage and speed.
Placement: Where your modem/router or access points are installed has a huge impact. Thick walls, concrete, and interference can all weaken signals.
We design and install Wi-Fi systems that account for all of these factors, so you can actually experience the full performance of your NBN plan across your home or business.
Yes. Using outdoor-rated access points and cabling, we can extend Wi-Fi to your outdoor areas and separate buildings — perfect for work, streaming, or smart home devices.
Wi-Fi extenders can boost coverage slightly, but they usually just repeat an already weak signal. Because they send and receive on the same channel, they often cut your Wi-Fi speed in half. This leads to slower performance and dropouts, especially when moving between rooms. A proper mesh Wi-Fi system or wired access point avoids this problem by using a dedicated wireless or wired “backhaul,” delivering seamless, full-speed coverage — which is exactly what we install.
We start by assessing your home or business layout, your internet plan speed, and your coverage needs. We also assess whether we can work with your existing equipment.
From there, we place mesh nodes or wired access points in the optimal locations to ensure reliable, high-speed Wi-Fi everywhere. Once installed, we thoroughly test the network for quality assurance.
Where possible, we prefer to hardwire mesh nodes together with Ethernet cabling.
Using advanced Ubiquiti and TP-Link Omada systems, we can also provide remote assistance, network management, and diagnostics, so your Wi-Fi stays fast, stable, and easy to maintain.
“Connected” doesn’t always mean full speed. Signal strength can be good, but interference, walls, or long wireless hops can still slow performance. Adding wired backhaul or relocating nodes often fixes these speed gaps.
As a tip, some devices do not support the newer Wi-Fi standards that your eero/Nest/Orbi or other Wi-Fi system supports, so take notice if some devices work better than others.
In most cases, YES! We can integrate with your existing system by adding Ethernet backhaul between nodes, installing additional access points, or upgrading to wired or hybrid setups. This can significantly improve speed, coverage, and reliability.
To actually get NBN 2000 speeds over Wi-Fi, you need the right combination of hardware and cabling to suit your scenario:
Wi-Fi 7 access points – the latest standard for multi-gigabit wireless performance.
2.5G Ethernet networking – wired connections to your Wi-Fi 7 access points unlock the full speed potential.
Compatible devices – your laptop, phone, or other devices must support Wi-Fi 7 or 2.5G wired connections.
Professional cabling and setup – placement, wiring, and configuration all affect real-world speeds.
TechTV can install the Cat6/6A cabling needed for 2.5G networking, set up your Wi-Fi 7 access points, and make sure your home or business is optimized to actually reach full NBN 2000 speeds.
