WiFi for a $100M-Class Harbour Estate — Zero Drilling
Lower North ShoreHeritage double-brickWireless-backhaul meshNo drilling
A landmark harbour-view estate on Sydney's Lower North Shore: circular picture windows framing the bridge and Opera House, three full-harbour-view master suites — and no usable WiFi in half the house.
Why premium old homes are the hardest
The finest low-density heritage homes are built with solid double-brick and serious acoustic insulation — brutal for WiFi propagation. This one had no Ethernet pre-wired anywhere, and understandably, drilling or surface conduits through a multi-million-dollar interior was off the table. Traditional 'one strong router' thinking simply retires here.
The design
- Custom wireless-backhaul mesh: premium tri-band nodes chosen for looks as well as radio performance (they sit in view).
- Node placement mapped room by room against the brick internal walls, then verified with on-site signal surveys.
- Every zone tuned and speed-tested — including the harbour-view bathtubs.
Result
Full-house coverage with seamless roaming — streaming by the bathtub, Opera House in view.
