Internet & phones in Browns Bay
When the internet drops, your IT provider and your internet provider shouldn't point at each other. We arrange business fibre, add a backup connection and set up cloud phones, then look after all of it alongside your IT.
Onsite technicians cover Browns Bay. Most problems are fixed remotely first; when a job needs hands, a technician comes to you.
Internet & phones for Browns Bay businesses
Browns Bay is the commercial heart of the East Coast Bays, with a seaside village of shops, cafes, real estate agencies, medical and dental practices, accountants and small offices on Clyde Road and the streets off the waterfront. Many businesses serve the surrounding residential suburbs.
Offices here tend to be small and above or behind shops, so equipment is squeezed into whatever space is available and Wi-Fi has to cope with thick block walls and busy neighbouring networks. Salt air near the waterfront is also hard on equipment left in exposed or poorly ventilated spots, so cabinet placement matters.
If you already use Microsoft 365, your phone system can live inside Teams, so calls, chat and meetings are in one place. If you'd rather keep desk phones and a reception console, we set up a hosted system that does that well.
We send technicians to Browns Bay practices and offices for network, computer and printer jobs, and help staff remotely the rest of the time. Planned work is booked around appointments and trading hours.
What's included
Business fibre
The right plan for your address and team size, ordered and installed with your network.
Cloud phone systems
Hosted phone systems with desk phones, mobile apps, call queues, recording and voicemail to email.
Backup internet
A second connection on a different network that takes over automatically if fibre fails.
Copper switch-off
If your old lines are being retired, we move alarms, EFTPOS and phones before the deadline.
Teams calling
Phone numbers inside Microsoft Teams, so staff make and take calls from the app they already use.
Number porting
Your existing numbers moved across without losing calls, including 0800 numbers.
Is it right for your Browns Bay office?
This is a good fit if:
- Your phones still run on copper lines or an old onsite system
- An internet outage would stop your business
- Staff work between home and the office
- You want fewer bills and one number to call when something breaks
How getting started works
- Free IT health check. We look at your devices, accounts, backups and network and tell you what we find, in plain English.
- Clear proposal. A written monthly price per user and a list of any fixes, with nothing hidden.
- Handover. We collect admin access and documentation from your current provider and keep your team working.
- Day-one fixes. Security gaps, failed backups and urgent risks are dealt with first.
Internet & phones in Browns Bay: questions
Where should our network equipment go in a small office?
Somewhere ventilated, secure and out of the way, not on the floor under reception or in a damp storeroom. A small wall-mounted cabinet often solves it. We recommend a location and quote the work after a look.
Can you look after a small real estate office?
Yes. Agents need reliable phones, laptops and Microsoft 365 on the move, and the office needs printers and scanners that work for everyone. We manage the devices and secure the accounts so listings and client details stay protected.
Can we keep our phone numbers?
Yes. Landline and 0800 numbers can be moved to a new system. We manage the port and time the change to avoid missed calls.
Do we need new desk phones?
Not always. Many current desk phones can be reused. Where they can't, we recommend models that suit the system.
What happens to our phones if the internet goes down?
With a backup connection, calls keep working. Without one, calls can be diverted to mobiles automatically until the internet is back.
How long does the switch take?
Fibre installs depend on the building and provider. Phone system changes are usually done in a week or two once numbers are confirmed.
