Network Types

Wired vs Wireless Home Networks — Which Do You Need?

Most Melbourne homes benefit from a smart combination of both. Here’s what each offers.

Most Popular

Wireless (Wi-Fi) Home Network

The go-to choice for most Melbourne homes. A properly configured Wi-Fi network covers every room and connects every device without a single cable.

  • Works with smartphones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, and IoT devices
  • No cabling required — ideal for renters and existing homes
  • Mesh systems eliminate dead zones in large or multi-storey homes
  • Modern Wi-Fi 6 routers support 50+ simultaneous device connections
  • Quick to install — often same day
Most Reliable

Wired Ethernet Home Network

For homes where speed, stability, and low latency matter — especially for home offices, gaming rigs, NAS drives, and 4K streaming setups.

  • Faster and more stable than wireless for stationary devices
  • Not affected by interference from neighbouring Wi-Fi networks
  • Essential for large homes where Wi-Fi signal weakens over distance
  • Data points installed where you need them — office, lounge, bedroom
  • Ethernet to each room + wireless = the ideal combination

Our Recommendation: For most Melbourne homes, the best home network setup combines wired ethernet to fixed locations (home office, TV, gaming consoles) with a well-configured Wi-Fi or mesh system for mobile devices. Our technicians will design the optimal solution for your specific home layout and usage patterns. See our home network guide for more detail.

Wired Home Networks

Wired networks are commonly used in large homes where the WiFi signal can weaken if it needs to pass through walls or travel a great distance. With a wired network we install lots of data points where you need them most – and you can then plug in your computer, printer or other device at these points – except for smart phones and tablets. However we even have a way around that! We’ll install WiFi modem to a LAN point to extend the reach of your WiFi signal. Combining wired networking with wireless network usually yields the best results.

Benefits of Home Networking

Whether you go for wireless, wired, or a combination of both – you’ll end up with:

  • Reliable access to internet and email from any device in any room.
  • Simple and fast file sharing between household members.
  • Easy access to shared devices like printers and scanners.
  • Lower mobile data costs. No need to use your mobile phone data allowance for online access when you’re at home.

Home Network Setup Near Me — Melbourne Suburbs We Service

Computer Cures provides professional home network setup services across all Melbourne metropolitan suburbs. Whether you’re in the inner city, bayside, eastern suburbs, northern suburbs, or the Mornington Peninsula — we have a local technician near you.

Our technicians are based across Melbourne and aim to reach you the same day you call. We service everything from apartments in South Yarra and Richmond to large family homes in Glen Waverley, Frankston, and Greensborough.

Common Home Network Problems We Fix

Our technicians have seen every home network issue imaginable across thousands of Melbourne homes. The most common problems we’re called to fix include:

  • Wi-Fi dead zones — rooms where the signal doesn’t reach or is too weak for video calls or streaming
  • Slow internet speeds despite fast NBN plan — usually caused by an old router, incorrect settings, or channel congestion
  • Frequent dropouts — devices losing connection intermittently, especially during peak hours
  • NBN connection not working after ISP handover — configuration issues that ISP support can’t resolve remotely
  • Can’t connect to smart home devices — compatibility or network segmentation issues
  • Slow wired connection — old ethernet cables, incorrect switch configuration, or faulty data points
  • New home — no data points or Wi-Fi coverage plan — we design and install from scratch

Home Network Setup for Different Melbourne Home Types

Apartments & Units

Apartment Wi-Fi often suffers from heavy interference from neighbouring networks. We optimise your router's channel selection, placement, and settings to cut through the congestion and deliver fast, stable Wi-Fi in every corner of your unit.

Large Family Homes

Multi-bedroom homes often need a mesh Wi-Fi system or wired ethernet backbone to maintain strong signal across multiple floors and through thick walls. We design a solution scaled to your home's footprint.

Homes with Home Offices

A home office deserves a wired ethernet connection — not Wi-Fi. We install a dedicated data point for your desk, configure VPN access, and set up secure guest Wi-Fi to keep your work network separate from household devices. See our home office setup service for more.

Properties with Granny Flats

We can set up a separate Wi-Fi network for a granny flat — either bridged from your main connection or as a standalone network, depending on your NBN setup and what the flat requires. We connect smart TVs, laptops, and any other devices to the new network.

New Builds & Renovations

Building or renovating? Now is the perfect time to install ethernet cabling throughout the home before the walls are plastered. We work with builders and electricians to design a future-proof network infrastructure. See our data cabling service for details.

Do I Need Wi-Fi 6 or a New Router?

If your router is more than 3–4 years old, upgrading to a Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) router can dramatically improve speeds, range, and the number of devices it can handle simultaneously. Modern homes with 20–50+ connected devices — phones, tablets, TVs, smart speakers, security cameras — often overwhelm older routers.

Our technicians can assess your current router and recommend whether an upgrade is worthwhile for your situation. We can also source and supply new hardware if needed. See our equipment consultation service.

Home Network Setup vs DIY

Home Network Setup vs DIY

Many Melburnians attempt DIY home network setup — and run into issues that cost more time and money than a professional visit would have. Common DIY pitfalls include choosing the wrong mesh system for the home size, placing routers in suboptimal locations, incorrect NBN modem settings, and channel congestion from neighbouring networks.

A professional home network setup from Computer Cures typically takes 1–4 hours and results in a properly tested, optimised system that works reliably from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions — Home Network Setup Melbourne

A basic Wi-Fi setup (modem/router configuration, a few devices) typically starts from $150. A full home network setup with mesh Wi-Fi and all devices connected ranges from $300–$500. Wired ethernet cabling throughout a home starts from $500 and varies with home size and number of data points. All work is quoted upfront — call 13 0055 3166 for a free estimate.

For large homes, we typically recommend a mesh Wi-Fi system (such as Eero, Google Nest WiFi Pro, or Netgear Orbi) or a wired ethernet backbone with wireless access points. Our technician will assess your home’s layout and recommend the most cost-effective solution for your specific floorplan. See our mesh Wi-Fi setup service for more details.

Yes, absolutely. We handle full ethernet cabling installations including data points and network equipment in utility locations like garages. We’ll assess your home layout, recommend the ideal cabling route and number of data points, then install and test the complete setup. Check our network cabling service for details.

Yes — this is one of our most common calls. Many NBN issues are caused by incorrect modem/router configuration, faulty internal cabling, or settings that ISP phone support simply can’t access remotely. Our technicians come on-site, diagnose the actual problem, and fix it. We’ve resolved NBN issues after weeks of failed ISP support calls in a single visit.

Yes. We’ve successfully run ethernet cabling to outdoor areas and kitchens in over 200 Melbourne homes. We’ll assess your home, plan the cabling route, and install data points where you need them. We can then connect wireless access points to these points to provide strong Wi-Fi in previously hard-to-reach areas. Call 13 0055 3166 to discuss your specific situation.

Yes. We can set up a separate Wi-Fi network for a granny flat — either as an extension of your main network or as a standalone network, depending on your NBN connection type and cabling situation. We’ll connect smart TVs, laptops, and any other devices in the flat to the new network.

A standard Wi-Fi setup with a few devices takes 1–2 hours. A full home network setup with mesh Wi-Fi and all devices connected typically takes 2–3 hours. Full ethernet cabling installations can take 3–6+ hours depending on the number of data points and home layout. We’ll give you a time estimate when you book.

Either option works. Many customers already have a router or mesh system and just need professional installation and configuration. If you need new equipment, our technicians can recommend the right hardware for your home and budget — and supply it as part of the service. See our equipment consultation service.
