Better wifi on the estates of Montbrió del Camp
A good share of the homes in Montbrió del Camp are villas and townhouses on private estates, two storeys, a garden and often a pool. Having fibre does not guarantee good wifi: the router goes wherever the line comes in and, between floor slabs, walls and sheer distance, the signal never reaches the bedrooms, the study or the terrace.
Our wifi coverage service starts with measuring. We walk the house with a phone and a laptop, see where the speed drops away and work out why. From there we choose the answer:
- A mesh system: several nodes forming a single network. You move around the house without dropouts.
- Wired access points: if there is ducting, or network cable can be run, this is the most stable option.
- Powerline adapters: they use the electrical wiring when there is no other way to link the floors.
- Outdoor coverage: a weatherproof access point for the garden and the pool.
If you work from home, or have several televisions running streaming platforms, you will notice the difference from the first day.
Access control for plots and homes
On the estates it is normal for a house to have both a pedestrian gate and a vehicle gate. Plenty of families want to open them without hunting for the remote, to let in whoever comes to clean or water the garden, or simply to know who has been in. With access control we handle that by keypad, card, key fob or an app on your phone.
Before fitting anything we check the gate motor and its control board to confirm it is compatible. If you also want to see and speak to whoever is calling, we add an IP video entry system that alerts your phone.
Terrestrial aerials and satellite dishes on detached homes
Every villa in Montbrió has its own aerial, and with it its own faults: cable spoiled by the sun, corroded connectors, amplifiers left out of adjustment after the 700 MHz band was released, or break-up caused by 5G interference. We check and repair your TV aerial with a field meter, so the signal is right at every socket.
There are also residents from other countries who live in Montbrió all year or for part of it. For them we fit satellite dishes aimed at Astra 19.2° E or other positions, depending on the channels they want to receive.
Rented houses and second homes
Some homes in Montbrió are let by the season or used by their owners for only a few months. In those cases we look for installations that run without anyone keeping an eye on them: wifi on a single network with a password that is easy to pass on, television that needs no retuning, and code-based access you can change between one tenant and the next without touching the locks. If you need it, we leave everything set up so you can manage it remotely from your phone.
What a visit looks like
- You tell us what is happening and what you would like to achieve.
- We come to the house and measure: wifi coverage, television signal or the state of the gate.
- We set out the options and give you a free quote, with no obligation.
- We install, set up the apps on your phone and test it all with you there.
We would rather you understood what has been done and why. That way, if you ever change internet provider or buy a new television, you will know which part of the installation still does its job.
