Whether it's wireless or erm... wireful wired, a home network can be invaluable if you have more than one computer at home. Sharing an internet connection, files and printers between your computers is just the beginning.

I've already got a wireless network.
It's quite likely you already have a wireless network, with broadband providers often supplying wireless routers for free, as part of their package. If you're already using a wireless connection but are having problems with it, or want to get more out of it Severn IT Services can help you too.

Security
Wireless networks, as you may have heard, are quite often an easy target. If you're not sure if you are fully protected, we can take a look at your existing network and put into place all of the necessary security measures to protect your network, if they are not already active.

Extended Range
If you like using your laptop outdoors, or have computers that rely on a wireless connection scattered around the house, signal strength can often be a problem. We can help by installing wireless repeaters, ensuring optimal placement of your wireless router and offering our opinion on alternative wireless routers that may offer a stronger signal and improved performance.

What can a network do for me?
If you're thinking about having us install a network for you, or you're interested in what else we can put into place for you with your existing network, we've put together a list of the most useful things you can achieve with a home network.

Share Everything
If you want to access your documents from any of the computers in your home you can do so, we can also create shared areas for you - to which all users have access, allowing you to share your music and photographs with everyone in the family who has computer access.

Printer Sharing
If you have more than one computer, it can often be a hassle to place a document onto a CD or memory stick just to allow you to print it off from the computer in your home that has access to the printer. A network will allow you to share the printer between all of the computers in your home, meaning you can save yourself quite a bit of time and make printing the simple process it's supposed to be.

Intelligent Backup
We can implement some rather clever technology for you, one of the most useful (we think) is a network backup facility. This will ensure that each of your computers have their important data backed up to a central location, automatically, at regular intervals - so there's no more worrying about loosing your files if anything goes wrong with your PC.

How much does it cost?
We'd love to give you a definite answer here, but this really depends upon how complex your network is. We can give you a quote over the phone, or in person if you'd like, after we've discussed your requirements with you.
