Workplace WiFi assessment in Foshan

Looking for Workplace WiFi assessment in Foshan? NETK5 has planned, measured and fixed office wireless in China since 2002. Our engineers survey with Ekahau, on site — and we do it in offices where the network carries Teams calls, trading terminals and a hundred laptops at once, not just email. We survey offices of every size — from a single floor to a multi-site rollout.

An office WiFi problem is rarely the access points. It is the decade of changes nobody measured: a wall added here, a team moved there, a floor that gained forty desks and lost its coverage. A survey replaces that history with numbers.

Why wireless fails in Foshan offices

  • Density. Open-plan seating puts dozens of devices in the space one access point was designed for. Capacity, not coverage, is what breaks first.
  • Glass and partitions. Modern office glass reflects; new partition walls absorb. Both change the plan you were surveyed against.
  • Meeting rooms and video. Teams and Zoom calls fail on upload and jitter long before the signal bars drop. Coverage is not the metric that matters here.
  • Roaming between floors. Lifts, stairwells and atrium voids are where laptops drop sessions mid-call.
  • Shared buildings. Your neighbour’s networks occupy the same channels. In a tower, that is a planning problem, not bad luck.
  • Guest and IoT traffic. Visitors, printers, door access, HVAC sensors and CCTV all share the air.

What Workplace WiFi assessment in Foshan covers

  • Predictive design for fit-outs and floor moves, before anything is bought
  • Passive survey of the real occupied space, including interference and channel overlap
  • AP placement by area, with channel and power plan
  • Capacity and roaming design for voice, video and hot-desking
  • Guest network design, isolation and onboarding
  • Back-of-house and building systems: printers, access control, CCTV, sensors
  • Heat maps, AP schedule and an as-built report your IT team can act on

How we run it

  1. Brief. Floor plan, occupancy, applications and the KPIs that actually matter — call quality, roaming, throughput per desk.
  2. Predictive plan. Off-site modelling produces a candidate design and a bill of materials.
  3. On-site survey. Our engineer measures the occupied office: passive survey and AP-on-a-stick validation at real mounting positions, during working hours where possible.
  4. Tune. Channel, power, band steering and roaming settings adjusted against the measurements.
  5. Report and handover. Heat maps, findings, recommended design and configuration, presented to your team and to your head office.

Who we do this for in Foshan

  • International companies fitting out or moving into office space
  • Professional services firms where a dropped call is a lost hour
  • Trading, logistics and finance offices with latency-sensitive applications
  • Global IT teams and integrators delivering a rollout who need local measurement and a report they can hand to their client

What you get

  • Ekahau survey report with coverage, interference and capacity heat maps
  • AP placement and configuration schedule, by area and floor
  • Call quality and roaming evidence where voice or video matter
  • A written remediation list if the existing network is the problem
  • As-built documentation, so the next floor move starts from facts

Where we work

We are not a single-city provider. NETK5 dispatches engineers across mainland China: our own team is based in Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou and Hong Kong, and we staff projects elsewhere in the country as clients need them — Xi’an, Chengdu, Suzhou, Taixing and beyond. Outside China we have delivered rack-and-stack work and WiFi surveys in Japan, Korea, Singapore and Taiwan, usually for international companies coordinating several sites from a head office that has never been on site.

For Workplace WiFi assessment in Foshan that matters in practice: work can be planned around a visit rather than a relocation, and the team that does the work hands over documentation the head office can actually use.

Our experience

Since 2002 we have surveyed and optimised wireless for clients including McKinsey, Microsoft, Nestlé, JLL and Supreme NYC — offices, production sites and stores across China, and for our partner clients across APAC. Offices we have surveyed and supported range from law firms, architecture and design studios, consultancy and trading companies to investment offices and retail headquarters — dense environments where capacity and roaming fail before coverage does. We survey ahead of a refit as often as after it. We also look after De Beers boutiques in Xi’an SKP, Beijing SKP and Hong Kong — surveys, network work and day-to-day support for retail sites where the network is effectively the till.

Questions we get asked

Can you survey while the office is working? Yes, and we prefer it. An empty office measures differently from a full one. Reports carry heat maps and AP placement rather than opinions.

We are fitting out new space — is a survey useful before we move in? That is the cheapest moment to do it. Predictive design before the ceiling goes up prevents the expensive version later. Most problems trace back to AP placement, channel overlap, or roaming.

Do you cover all floors and the stairwells? Yes. Lifts, stairs and atrium voids are where roaming normally fails, so they are always in scope. Trading floors and open-plan floors get capacity planning, not just coverage.

Can you work alongside our global IT provider? Yes. Most clients keep their global standards and use us for local measurement and delivery.

What do you need from us to quote? Floor plans, occupancy per floor, and the applications that matter most.
