From Mesh to Enterprise: Transforming Office Wi-Fi Performance
A growing Dubai business had a consumer mesh that could not keep up. We installed cabling, enterprise routing, and managed WiFi for stable performance across 60+ devices.
Key Results
Consistent speeds across every office, seamless roaming, and a remotely managed network that scales without rework.
The Challenge
A multi-room office relied on consumer mesh WiFi. Each wireless hop reduced bandwidth and increased latency.
Symptoms
Performance dropped with distance from the main router.
- Main office acceptable
- Second office inconsistent
- Third office unstable
Why it failed
Wireless backhaul and unmanaged hardware created a bottleneck.
- Bandwidth halved per hop
- No centralized management
- Troubleshooting by guesswork
The Hurst First Approach
Infrastructure first, then enterprise-grade hardware with wired backhaul for every access point.
Infrastructure First
Installed Cat6 cabling between offices using existing ceiling routes with minimal disruption.
- Clean routing
- Permanent backbone
- No surface trunking
Enterprise Core
UniFi Cloud Gateway and a 16-port UniFi Pro Max switch for centralized control and growth.
- Centralized routing
- Security controls
- Room to scale
Managed WiFi
Two WiFi 7 Pro access points with wired backhaul, optimized for high device density.
- Wired backhaul
- Seamless roaming
- Remote management
The Results
60 devices, two access points, zero performance drop-off.
