Internet & phones in East Tāmaki
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 East Tāmaki. Most problems are fixed remotely first; when a job needs hands, a technician comes to you.
Internet & phones for East Tāmaki businesses
East Tamaki is one of New Zealand's largest industrial and business areas, stretching along Springs Road, Ti Rakau Drive and Harris Road, with manufacturers, importers, distributors, engineering firms, printers and trade wholesalers. Most premises combine an office at the front with a warehouse or factory behind.
Office-and-warehouse buildings here need networks that serve two very different spaces: cabled desks and meeting rooms up front, and Wi-Fi strong enough to reach handheld scanners between tall racking out the back. Many sites also run CCTV, access control and production machines that should sit on their own network segments, and dispatch stops if the internet drops, so a failover connection earns its keep.
Phones and internet used to be separate from IT. Now the phones run over the internet and the internet runs through the firewall, so a problem in one is a problem in all three. Having one team responsible removes the finger-pointing.
East Tamaki is close to home for our Auckland technicians, who visit for warehouse Wi-Fi, cabling, CCTV and office computers. Everyday issues are fixed remotely, and site work is planned around shifts and dispatch.
What's included
Business fibre
The right plan for your address and team size, ordered and installed with your network.
Teams calling
Phone numbers inside Microsoft Teams, so staff make and take calls from the app they already use.
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.
Cloud phone systems
Hosted phone systems with desk phones, mobile apps, call queues, recording and voicemail to email.
Number porting
Your existing numbers moved across without losing calls, including 0800 numbers.
Is it right for your East Tāmaki 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 East Tāmaki: questions
Can you design Wi-Fi for a warehouse in East Tamaki?
Yes. We survey the building with the racking and stock in place, then position access points for the aisles and loading areas where scanners are used. The design and installation are quoted in writing before we start.
Should our CCTV and production machines be on the office network?
No. We separate cameras, machines and office computers into their own segments behind a managed firewall, so a vulnerable device cannot be used to reach your accounts or files.
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.
Is Teams calling right for us?
If your staff already live in Teams, usually yes. If you need a reception console, hunt groups or recording rules, a hosted phone system may suit better. We'll explain the trade-offs.
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.
