The Benefits of a Home Network Setup Designed for Smart Homes
Experience Reliable, Fast Coverage Throughout Your Expansive Property
As home automation and smart technology relentlessly advance, today’s home network setup is more important than ever. Yes, it keeps our computers up and running, but it’s also the backbone of our intelligent door locks, security cameras, and the numerous systems managed by the home automation platform.
When it goes down, our home goes down.
At Integrated Lifestyles, our automation and network experts ensure a robust and reliable network capable of handling the many connected devices that make up your world. No more never-ending downloads, dropped connections, or video buffering. Instead, you experience corner-to-corner coverage, including out into your expansive Dallas, TX, yard, no matter how many devices are simultaneously connected.
Let’s explore how it’s done.

The Latest Wi-Fi Standards
As smart homes grew in number, it became clear that Wi-Fi 5 did not have the capacity for multiple bandwidth hogs connected at the same time. From this realization came Wi-Fi 6, followed closely on its heals by Wi-Fi 6e and Wi-Fi 7.
These Wi-Fi standards are designed for the smart home, providing faster speeds and increased capacity to handle multiple connected devices. They reduce network congestion while extending the range, enhancing nearly every aspect of smart home living. To take advantage of this, you’ll need compatible devices, including a new router and access points.
Extending Your Reach
If you need to cover a large area, from several stories to an expansive outdoor space, a mesh Wi-Fi system may offer the ideal solution. These systems include several satellite nodes that extend the coverage to every corner of your property. Our experts ensure the proper placement, eliminating dead zones while optimizing signal strength. They consider the challenges inherent in today’s luxury homes, including signal interference from metal, glass, concrete walls, and ceramic tile.
Wired Connections
Nothing beats a wired connection to take the pressure off your Wi-Fi system and provide the most reliable, secure, and fast network. This solution is ideal for devices that don’t need the luxury of unlimited range, such as your laptop that frequently finds itself on the patio.
Desktop computers, gaming consoles, and smart TVs can be directly wired, connecting to the router via Ethernet cables.
