Boavista Palace: private, isolated Wi-Fi in all 72 apartments

Because long-stay guests use the apartment as both home and office. They want speed, they want privacy and they will not accept seeing the neighbour's devices.

Boavista Palace sits in one of Porto's most prestigious business districts, a few steps from Carolina Michaëlis metro station. It offers a gym, a terrace, soundproofed interiors with premium finishes and welcome amenities. With demand for premium accommodation and extended stays growing, the internet connection has become part of the product.

With VLAN segmentation, from the access point to the switch. Each apartment has its own wireless network, protected and invisible to the others.

1. Coverage planning: before installing any equipment, DataRoad set the position of each access point to cover all 8 floors with no dead zones.
2. Enterprise-grade access points: multiple units tuned for range and throughput with many devices connected at once.
3. Managed switching: business switches with VLANs that separate traffic and give the network control and stability.
4. Security gateway: controls the internet uplink and has redundancy, so the failure of one link does not leave the building without service.
5. Final tuning: adjustments after installation, with the building already in use.
