At Asheville Computer Company, we’re dedicated to delivering exceptional IT solutions tailored to our clients' unique needs. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with Hidden River Events, a premier event venue located in Swannanoa, NC. Our mission was to elevate their network capabilities to ensure flawless connectivity for their diverse range of events.
The Challenge:
Hidden River Events, known for hosting a variety of gatherings from weddings to corporate functions, required a robust and reliable WiFi network to accommodate their growing needs. Their existing network infrastructure, while functional, was not optimized for the new use cases and increased demand. Key challenges included:
Inconsistent Coverage: Some areas of the venue had spotty or unreliable WiFi coverage.
Outdated Equipment: The existing access points were several years old and not performing at their best.
Inefficient Setup: Some access points were meshed in a way that limited their effectiveness.
Our Solution:
To address these challenges, our team designed and implemented a comprehensive WiFi upgrade plan:
Installation of New Access Points: We added several new WiFi access points strategically placed to extend coverage throughout the venue. These state-of-the-art units provide higher performance and reliability compared to the older equipment.
Repositioning Existing Units: We carefully assessed the placement of the previously installed access points and repositioned them for optimal coverage. This adjustment was crucial to improving signal strength in areas that were previously underserved.
Wiring Previously Meshed Access Points: To enhance network efficiency, we reconfigured and wired some of the previously meshed access points. This change ensures that each access point operates independently, maximizing their performance and reducing potential bottlenecks.
The Results:
The upgraded WiFi infrastructure now provides:
Seamless Connectivity: Guests and staff at Hidden River Events can enjoy uninterrupted internet access throughout the venue, ensuring smooth operation for all events.
Improved Coverage: With strategically placed and upgraded access points, every corner of the venue benefits from strong and reliable WiFi signals.
Enhanced Performance: The new setup supports high-speed internet for various applications, from streaming to video conferencing, meeting the diverse needs of their clientele.
