Answers & Guidance
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
You May Not Need
A new router will not fix poor Wi-Fi coverage. Most coverage problems are caused by access point placement and cabling, not the router itself.
Backspace Insight
Your network is infrastructure. It should be designed to support what your business does today and what it will do tomorrow — not just what was cheapest to buy today.
Engineering Note
Faster internet does not automatically fix slow internal networks. If your internal switching and cabling cannot handle the throughput, the internet speed is irrelevant.

Assess
We audit your current environment, risks, and requirements.
02
Design
We engineer a solution architecture tailored to your needs.
03
Supply
We source and deliver the right hardware and software.
04
Install
Our engineers deploy the system with minimal disruption.
05
Configure
We optimize settings, policies, and integrations.
06
Integrate
We connect everything to work as one unified system.
07

Before & After Backspace
Left: the contractor spaghetti you inherit. Right: the Backspace standard we deliver and maintain.
Before
- Spaghetti cabling, unlabeled and untraceable
- Mixed vendors, no standard, warranty gaps
- Ad-hoc Wi-Fi with dead zones and collisions
- No test reports — installations by the cheapest bidder
- Finger-pointing between suppliers when things fail
After
- Backspace standard: labelled, tested, certified cabling
- Single vendor accountability, documented as-built drawings
- Predictable coverage with heatmaps and VLAN isolation
- Full test reports, certification and handover pack
- One number, one SLA, engineered to scale
