Enterprise-Level Network Infrastructure for Your Private Home
Introducing
In today's fast-paced and interconnected world, robust and reliable network infrastructure is essential for businesses and individuals. While enterprise-level network infrastructure has traditionally been associated with large corporations and organizations, there are several compelling reasons why you might consider implementing such a solution in your private home. Let's explore the benefits:
- Unparalleled Performance: An enterprise-level network infrastructure brings cutting-edge technology and superior performance to your home environment. It provides high-speed connectivity, low latency, and exceptional bandwidth capacity, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted access to online services, entertainment, and smart home devices. Whether streaming 4K content, participating in bandwidth-intensive activities, or running multiple devices simultaneously, an enterprise-grade network infrastructure ensures optimal performance.
- Enhanced Security: With the rise of cyber threats and privacy concerns, protecting your digital assets and personal information is paramount. Enterprise-level network infrastructure incorporates robust security measures such as advanced firewalls, intrusion detection systems, secure remote access, and encryption protocols. These features protect against unauthorized access, malware, and data breaches, ensuring your home network remains secure and your privacy intact.
- Seamless Connectivity: As our homes become increasingly connected through the Internet of Things (IoT), an enterprise-level network infrastructure facilitates seamless communication between various devices. From smart appliances and home automation systems to security cameras and voice assistants, a reliable and high-performance network ensures smooth data transfer and interaction, enhancing convenience and efficiency in managing your smart home ecosystem.
- Scalability and Future-Proofing: Enterprise-level network infrastructure is designed with scalability in mind. It can adapt to the evolving needs of your home network, allowing you to seamlessly integrate new devices and technologies without compromising performance. Investing in an infrastructure that supports future growth avoids the hassle and expense of frequent upgrades or replacements, ultimately saving time and resources in the long run.
- Optimal Work-from-Home Experience: As remote work continues to gain prominence, an enterprise-level network infrastructure elevates your work-from-home experience. It provides a stable, high-speed connection for video conferencing, file sharing, and accessing cloud-based applications. With enterprise-grade network capabilities, you can participate in virtual meetings, collaborate with colleagues, and stay productive without the frustrations of lagging connections or dropped calls.
- Centralized Network Management: Enterprise-level network infrastructure often includes advanced management tools that allow you to monitor and control your home network effectively. With a centralized dashboard, you can manage user access, set parental controls, prioritize bandwidth usage, and troubleshoot issues promptly. This level of control empowers you to optimize network performance according to your specific requirements and preferences.
You gain access to advanced technology, unparalleled performance, robust security, and seamless connectivity by implementing an enterprise-level network infrastructure in your private home. It enhances your day-to-day experiences and prepares your home for the future.

Cybersecurity and you!
Cybersecurity, this term has been thrown around a lot in recent years. Especially following mass cyber-attacks on a corporate or even national scale. Now while many of us have heard the phrase countless times, we may not know what it is. Or more importantly, we may not know what actions can be taken to improve our cybersecurity.
What is cybersecurity:
So, what actually is it? Cybersecurity refers to the practice of protecting internet-connected systems, including hardware, software, and data, from attack, damage, or unauthorised access. This involves implementing a variety of digital security measures that you are most likely already familiar with such as firewalls, encryption, and secure passwords to safeguard against cyber threats such as hacking, malware, and phishing.
What Lairds can do for you:
Lairds is the only company that will conduct security audits and maintain networks for home users. We can install systems that monitor your networks, update you on issues and we can even provide remote support indefinitely. This will give you a chance of peace and security for the you and your family.
Why you should invest:
Investing in cybersecurity is important because it helps protect the sensitive information and assets of yourself or your business from these cyber threats. Attacks like these can result in data breaches, loss of sensitive information, and subsequent damage to your organisation's reputation.
From a business standpoint, improving your cybersecurity can also provide a competitive advantage, as customers and partners may prefer to do business with organisations that can demonstrate a strong commitment to protecting their data. By investing in cybersecurity, you can reduce the risk of a successful attack, minimise the potential damage from an attack, and improve your organisation's overall security infrastructure.
When did it become so important:
Cybersecurity has always been important, but it has gained increased attention in the public eye over recent years due to the growing number of high-profile cyber-attacks and data breaches. With individuals using so many internet-connected devices and having sensitive information stored and shared electronically, it has become easier for cyber-criminals to target individuals and organisations.
Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the shift to remote work and online activities. This has also increased the attack surface for cyber-criminals to exploit, making cyber security even more crucial for not just organisations but for individuals as well.
There have been many high-profile cyber-attacks and data breaches involving major companies over the years:
• Yahoo: In 2013 and 2014, a data breach led to stolen email addresses, phone numbers, and birth dates of all 3 billion of its user accounts.
• Marriott International: In 2018, the hotel chain suffered a data breach in which the personal information of around 500 million customers was compromised.
• Sony: In 2011, Sony's PlayStation Network and Qriocity streaming services suffered a data breach, leading to the personal information of 77 million customers being compromised.
• Uber: In 2016, the ride-sharing company suffered a data breach, meaning the information of 57 million customers and 600,000 drivers was compromised.
These are just a few examples of the many major companies that have been victims of cyber-attacks and data breaches. Even the most well-protected companies can fall victim to a cyber-attack, so it's crucial for all organisations and individuals to take cybersecurity seriously and take the necessary steps to protect sensitive information.
Actionable steps you can take right now:
So, what can be done about this in the here and now?
1. Use strong and unique passwords for all accounts and enable two-factor authentication whenever possible.
2. Keep all software and operating systems up to date with the latest security patches and updates.
3. Educate yourself and your co-workers about common cyber threats, such as phishing scams and social engineering, and how to recognize and avoid them. Read more about it here.
4. Use anti-virus and anti-malware software to protect your devices and networks.
5. Use a firewall to protect your network and limit access to only authorised users.
6. Consider hiring a cyber security professional to conduct a security audit and identify vulnerabilities in your systems.
And that last step is where the team here at Lairds can be of assistance. Our technicians are cybersecurity specialists with a great knowledge of computer networks and systems, as well as a range of security technologies and best practices to keep you or your business secure.
If you are interested in our cybersecurity services, we would love to hear from you. Give us a call or drop us an email and take the steps to improve your cybersecurity today.

Laird(s) Takes on Langkawi
In the newsletter, you’ll read all about Lairds Takes on Langkawi. But for now, here is some extra information. Mark Laird, company CEO, is undertaking a charity fundraising expedition to the Malaysian Jungle and the Andaman Islands in the Indian ocean.
Mark is spending 10 days trekking the primary jungle, climbing a mountain just to get back down safely to then be picked up by boat to be dropped off on a desert island and left to survive for a week. If this isn’t a reason to donate, what would be? You’ll find the donation link attached

What is an AV company?
One of the most common asked questions to our employees when they tell their friends and family that they work for us is “What is an AV Company?”. We’ve realised this is a question that more than just family and friends hold. Therefore, in this article, we are going to tell you all about what an AV company is and does.
What is an AV Company?
An AV Company is responsible for supply and installation, and in some cases, operation of equipment that directly or indirectly process sound or visual media. When we talk about audio-visual technology, we’re referring to the synchronisation of audio equipment such as speakers and visual equipment or video walls, controllers, processors, and matrix switchers. Therefore, it is responsible for all things motion picture, radio, presentations, tv programs, conferencing, live performance, and more.
Some AV companies will focus exclusively on providing specific pieces of AV equipment to venues and people, whereas other larger outfits provide AV hire services as part of their broader spectrum. In other words, an AV company often wears many hats.
What Services Do AV Companies Offer?
The services that are offered by an AV company, will vary from business to business. Some businesses will specialise in hire / supply and setting up AV installations for events. Whereas, other businesses will not only offer AV equipment for hire, but they will include the supply and installation of equipment in residential or commercial buildings.
What you require from an AV company will be dependent on the nature, scale, and the location. For example, if you are a business looking to hold small conference calls, then all you may need is a small system. This includes a projector, screen and a conferencing microphone and speaker. Or, if you’re a family-man looking to provide your home with a full entertainment system and security. The equipment you’re then looking at is speakers, CCTV, projectors, lighting and much more.
Ease and Access of Audio-Visual Technology
During the pandemic, as we all withdrew into our homes, the AV industry came to the rescue. By bringing the office into the comfort of our own homes, this gave a more flexible approach to working. This ensured that everyone was able to continue working, communicating, and connecting with each other. Done via digital means never thought of before.
What are the most decisive AV industry trends?
Like all industries, an AV Company will follow trends. Trends allow for the creation of big waves in the future, and allow for expansion and more exposure. The most popular AV trends that we have in 2022 are;
-
Improvement in Wi-Fi Technology.
It is generally thought that Wi-Fi is pretty two-dimensional. But anyone with thick walls and slow broadband speed will tell you otherwise and that improvement is well over-due. In the most recent decade, most of us searched for the newest router for the fastest Wi-Fi speeds that we could get our hands on. But Wi-Fi is now moving into the Wifi 6 phase. These routers came into use in mid-late 2020 and now allow us to connect to even more devices in a household with far fewer delays than ever before.
-
Collaboration of AV and Cloud-Based Technology.
With the help of AV technology, organisations are able to take their work over to a virtual space while still working as if they’re in the same room as each other. This means that users can still work together and collaborate on tasks, even if they’re sat at opposite ends of the world! Due to the pandemic, the partnership has been supercharged as we all transferred operations between Teams, Zoom, and other conferencing platforms. The advancement in this partnership has meant that companies can increase their engagement, improve communication and continue to operate from the cloud, meaning that the morning commute to the office is no longer a total necessity.
-
VR and AR.
One of the best parts of the AV industry is that it has seemingly facilitated the impossible. VR and AR technology allows us to immerse ourselves into different worlds and settings. Allowing us to walk around and interact with our surroundings without leaving the comfort of our living room. VR and AR technology is looking to replicate in-person communication. By creating software that detects and replicates facial expressions and tracks eye movement. This might point to a future where we can interact with each other in almost in-person settings; even if the two participants are situated in different countries.

Strada 2
“Our ambition should be to rule ourselves, the true kingdom for each one of us; and true progress is to know more, and be more, and to do more.” ― Oscar Wilde
If there was just one word to describe our Featured Brand for August 2022, it would be ambitious!
Gallo Acoustics are true progressives, bringing you the Strada 2 series. Building off of the original Strada design, which despite its small size and relatively small cost, provided the audio quality of a much larger speaker.
The Strada 2 helps give you that realistic live performance quality in your home, while fitting around your interior design! Placed subtly on a shelf, fixed to a wall, floor stand; the Strada 2 is as versatile as its consumer!
Looking for some extra immersion? The Strada 2 Centre is an alternate version, utilising a horizontal layout and not compromising in performance even while using a multi-channel system!
As with all Gallo Acoustics products, they continue to push the envelope in both sound quality and aesthetic. There’s nothing quite like a speaker from Gallo Acoustics!
TR-3D Subwoofer
We are now on the penultimate day of August, if you can believe it! So that means there is just enough time for us to show off one last product from our featured brand, Gallo Acoustics! Now all the products we have shown so far from Gallo have been minimal in design and maximum in sound, so today we’d like to highlight a subwoofer that you know packs a punch!
Meet the TR-3D Subwoofer, in typical Gallo Acoustics fashion, this dynamic subwoofer has a sleek design that can blend in seamlessly or make a statement! And if the design isn’t enough to blow your socks off the sound definitely will!
But even the greatest of stallions can be tamed, Gallo Acoustics have put the reins in your hands! Boasting an array of capabilities and precise control over the smooth and powerful bass, the TR-3D is designed for both music and movies. In short, this subwoofer is a versatile powerhouse! But don’t just take our word for it,
have a look at what the master craftsmen at Gallo Acoustics have to say.

Wifi Experience
Wi-Fi Experience
The internet plays an important part in our lives. We rely on it for many things; to communicate, work, learn and have fun. This makes it important that our wifi meets our needs. In an ever changing world, most people use Wi-Fi to connect devices such as mobile phones, laptops and tablets to our home broadband internet connection without wires.
Have you ever wanted to throw away your Wi-Fi router as it doesn’t run the way you were guaranteed? Here are the most common issues that people experience with Wi-Fi.
Common Issues
- Your devices won’t connect to the internet.
- Nothing can connect to the Wi-Fi.
- Slow / no internet in specific rooms.
- Slow internet in every room.
- Random drop outs.
Questions
- Is everyone else online? Are your family, friends or colleagues are connected, but only your devices, laptop, phone or PC, just to refuse to connect?
- Are the relevant lights on the router? What colour of lights show against your broadband / internet connection?
- Is there something obstructing the Wi-Fi signal? How far away are the rooms from the router?
- Are all devices struggling? Is there something obstructing the Wi-Fi signal?
- Are you using the internet and suddenly no one can connect, and then a few minutes later it comes back?
Resolutions
- Some tips to help reconnect your devices to the internet; turn off the Wi-Fi on your device and then tell your device to forget the connection. Once you have done this, switch off your device and then turn it back on. As soon as the device is on, you can try to reconnect the internet. *Please note: you may need the Wi-Fi password to proceed to reconnect.
- Have you checked the lights on your router? If there is a red light displaying against the broadband or internet connection, you will need to speak to your service provider. If you find that their lines are busy and there’s a long wait, then it may be an issue many people are experiencing. If this isn’t the case, then it may be a problem with your router, and you may need to consider buying a new one!
- If you can, move the router to a more central location to allow the Wi-Fi to reach throughout the house. Or if the internet is used in a particular area, move the router closer to this room. Does your router have external antennas? If so, you could ensure that they are positioned correctly. This includes trying them in different positions, and ensuring they’re not obstructed by a piece of furniture or otherwise.
- If the internet has dropped for everyone, then follow these steps; by using an ethernet cable, plug the laptop into the router directly and then test the internet speed using speedtest.net. If you find that the internet speed is still slow, then there is a connection issue and you need to contact your service provider. Alike to point 2, If you find that their lines are busy and there’s a long wait, then it may be an issue many people are experiencing. If this isn’t the case, then it may be a problem with your router, and you may need to consider buying a new one!
- If your internet drops out more than once, try and spot a pattern. Does it drop out when a certain device is used? Or when a particular vehicle passes your house? Or it’s even an issue if you have an older microwave. Some routers are known to suffer from older microwaves. Crazy, right? It could even be your neighbours. Does it drop out when they come home from work? Keep note and notice the patterns, and try to avoid certain issues that are possible to avoid.
What Can Lairds Do?
Are you experiencing any Wi-Fi issues? Or do you want your current Wi-Fi state checked? Then contact us, and we will do our best to help. Whether we can advise you on a new router, service provider, or even just a booster, the team at Lairds always put our clients first.

Well, we are firmly in the last week of June 2022. So, it’s time to wrap up (or rather dress down) our summer feature on ProofVision! With July rolling in, the sun rolls in with it!
For our final ProofVision featured product, we’d like to shine some (summer sun) light on their series of Aire Plus outdoor TVs! These TVs are specifically designed for outdoor use, thanks to their ultra-high brightness and 4k ultra-HD display!
The Aire Plus series range in size, starting at 43” and finishing at 86”! But should you want a smaller more affordable alternative there is the 32” Aire outdoor TV, boasting high brightness and a full HD display, all in a smaller package!
