Communication habits in the home have dramatically changed from DVDs to streaming, working from home continues to be a popular choice and home systems such as security and air conditioning are now controlled anywhere from a smart device.
The ability to connect quickly to a reliable internet connection has become paramount for homeowners with fibre optics considered the gold standard.
Redtrain Networks, one of Australia’s leading wholesale fibre infrastructure providers is the preferred supplier in many new masterplanned communities including Windermere. The company designs, constructs and delivers superfast optical networks.
John Hicks, Partnership and Customer Activation Manager for Redtrain Networks comments, “Melbourne’s west has witnessed significant growth and development in recent years, making it a hotspot for new housing projects. This growth has led to an increasing demand for high-speed internet and reliable network infrastructure. Instant accessibility is what homeowners expect.
“Homes in suburbs like Windermere which are three to four bedrooms have occupants using multiple devices simultaneously. Our network supports super-fast broadband and low latency, which allows residents to stream, game, connect to their smart devices at the same time.”
According to John, Redtrain Networks has become the fibre optic supplier of choice which can be attributed to the company’s large tech team, quick deployment, reputation, fibre optic technology and gold-standard service.
Four tips are listed below to help assist quick connectivity in new homes:
- Plan early and pick an internet retailer based on price, speed, and promotions (they will fast-track your installation). Redtrain Networks has partnered with award-winning internet retailers which include some of the most reputable and fastest-growing retail choices available.
- Carefully analyse the points of difference between retailers to determine which value-add services are important to you such as multiple languages, router inclusion and local support staff available to assist with any issues.
- Don’t underestimate how much bandwidth your household will use. Multiple devices used at the same time chew up bandwidth very quickly.
- Investing in a new router is recommended as the technology is rapidly improving. Some routers cost less than $100 and support Wi-Fi6, mesh connectivity and multiple connected devices.
John concluded, “Building a new home can be stressful, yet exciting at the same time. Not having an internet connection from day one can add to a challenging experience. Choose a retailer before you move in to ensure smart device connectivity from move in date. Connectivity matters in today’s fast-paced technology driven world.”
