What a Network Health Check Includes
A Network Health Check reviews how your office network is performing, where the risks are and what needs improving.
It is useful when staff are dealing with slow Wi-Fi, VPN problems, dropped connections or an old network that nobody fully understands.
What We Check
Internet Connection
We check whether the connection is stable and whether the speed is suitable for the business.
Wi-Fi
We review coverage, access point placement, signal strength and areas where staff are losing connection.
Firewall
We check whether the firewall is supported, secure and suitable for the number of users and internet speed.
Network Switches and Cabling
We look for faulty ports, poor cabling, overloaded links and equipment that may be causing slow or unreliable performance.
VPN and Remote Access
We review slow connections, dropped sessions, access rules and whether remote access is set up securely.
Network Security
We check for obvious risks such as outdated equipment, weak settings, poor network separation and unnecessary access.
Network Setup
We review how the network is arranged and whether it is easy to manage, support and grow.
What You Receive
After the check, you receive:
A clear summary of the main issues
The likely cause of current problems
A prioritised list of improvements
Advice on what can stay and what may need replacing
Clear next steps without unnecessary jargon
The aim is to give you a practical view of the network, not a long technical report.
When a Network Health Check Is Useful
A check may be worth arranging if:
Wi-Fi keeps dropping out
VPN access is slow or unreliable
Staff complain about network performance
Equipment is old or undocumented
The business is growing
You are moving office
You are unsure whether the current setup is secure
