Smart Home Pillar: Connectivity

The foundation of a reliable smart home - stable network, proper protocols, and clean infrastructure.

Connectivity is what makes smart homes feel “solid” instead of frustrating. HouseFix designs the connectivity layer so devices respond quickly, automations run consistently, and the system stays stable over time.

What Connectivity includes

1) Wi-Fi coverage and performance

  • Coverage survey and dead-zone identification

  • Mesh Wi-Fi planning for villas and multi-floor homes

  • Correct router/access point placement for stable signal

  • Separate guest network setup (optional, recommended)

2) Wired reliability (where possible)

  • Ethernet points to key locations (TV areas, offices, access points)

  • Wired backhaul for mesh systems (major stability improvement)

  • POE readiness for cameras and access points (cleaner installs where applicable)

  • Structured cabling planning during renovations (best time to do it)

3) Smart-home protocols and ecosystem stability

  • Hub/controller strategy to avoid “10 apps” and inconsistent device behaviour

  • Using reliable low-power protocols where suitable (for sensors and automation responsiveness)

  • Compatibility planning so devices work together under one control layer

  • Future-proofing considerations (standards support where applicable)

4) Network security and access control (practical)

  • Smart device segmentation guidance (optional)

  • Admin access ownership and handover (so you stay in control)

  • Clean device naming and grouping to reduce confusion

5) Power resilience (optional but premium)

  • UPS for router/hub so the smart home stays online during brief outages

  • Surge protection guidance for sensitive equipment

  • Clean power routing for wall panels, hubs, and network gear
