Router & Wi-Fi
Before you pay for a faster internet plan, let us find the real problem.
Slow or dropping Wi-Fi isn’t always fixed by paying for more speed. We look at what’s actually going on — where the router sits, how it’s set up, how old it is — and give you the quickest fix, even when that fix costs nothing.

How the tiers work →Most valueHome Router Setup
Before you pay your internet provider for a faster plan, let us set up the router you have. We measure the speed in your rooms before and after, so you can see the difference — and if the slowdown is on your provider’s side, we’ll tell you. Firmware updated, WPA3 on, default password gone, every device back online.

A cleaner, quieter internet for the whole family. Handled for you.
Fewer ads and trackers on your family's devices, rules you choose, and a local company to text when something needs changing. We set it up — nothing for you to install.
Ron's Tech Net blocks many ads and trackers on the devices and connections it's set up for. It means fewer ads, not no ads: some ads, like YouTube's and many inside apps, still get through, and some devices, apps and settings go around it. It will sometimes block something you wanted — text us and we'll allow it. It also blocks website names that appear on published lists of known scam and malware sites, but those lists miss new and unlisted ones. It isn't antivirus software, and it doesn't protect any device or account from scams or hacking.
Same pages. Flip the switch.
Pages can load faster with fewer ads to download. Taken on our own devices; results vary by site — YouTube's ads, most in-app ads and ads a site serves itself still get through.
Block lists and family features come with Pro and up. Standard covers ads and trackers on one device.

RAM, SSD and hard drive installs and home network diagnosis are $35 each, added to a visit rather than booked on their own. For a limited time: free pickup and return (or a free house call), nothing to pay when you book, and a 90-day warranty on our labor. Parts are billed at exact cost with the receipt shown, and all prices are plus sales tax.
