From everyone at Geekabit, we wish you a prosperous new year and hope that 2017 allows you to achieve all of your goals both in business and in life.

Working on the first proper day back of the year can often be tough, and it’s surprising how many telephone calls and emails we receive of things that have miraculously ‘broken’ over the Christmas period when their offices have been closed!

People are frequently convinced their Wi-Fi access points have also gone away on their Christmas holidays, when in all honesty, it turns out they were probably turned off and unplugged by people conducting cleaning and deep maintenance when everyone else is away.

We’ve used the festive period as a chance to get away, up into the Valleys, walking and taking stock of where we want to be over the next year. The overriding theme is the chance to ‘skill up’ and ensure that more of our team continue their professional development and qualifications to ensure we will meet our goal to be the UK Wi-Fi consultancy experts, each and every time.

2017 is going to show a greater reliance on Wi-Fi technologies both in and out of the office, and yet there are still wide and generalised misconceptions of the technology. What’s interesting is while it becomes even more important and vital to our daily work, we understand less and less.

Visiting a huge number of permanent and temporary Wi-Fi installations over the last year across the UK, it is clear to see that simple guidelines and advise just isn’t being followed. 80% of our work is correcting very simple mistakes. We can only see this continuing.

There is little point in withholding all this knowledge ourselves and so our blog posts will be focussed on as many case studies as we can cover in one year, showing the steps we take in order to make things better. That’s fair isn’t it?

We hope that you’ve returned to work and that you’re fully connected, ready with ambition for the new year and ready to achieve your goals.
We look forward to working with you
