Business Wi-Fi in Portugal

Full bars is not Wi-Fi that works.

Calls that drop when the room fills up and guests on the company network. We measure the space, design for peak hour and guarantee coverage in writing. No-obligation proposal.

DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting designs, installs and manages business Wi-Fi networks in Portugal with coverage that is measured and guaranteed in writing: video calls that don't drop, guests kept apart from the work network, and one partner accountable for the network after installation.

We are one of the reference names in Portugal for business wireless networks, headquartered in Alfragide with support across the whole country. We also serve international companies based in Portugal and clients in Europe and the US. We measure the space, design for the real load, install, measure again and hand over the heat map that proves the contracted coverage. From then on, the network is under our management on the IT Unlimited contract.

What does properly built Wi-Fi give your business?

  • Meetings without dropouts Stable video calls and screen sharing in the full meeting room, not just the empty one.
  • Guests off the work network Visitors, hotel guests and patients on their own VLAN, with no access to internal systems.
  • Coverage in writing What we contract is documented in the final heat map, floor by floor.
  • One accountable partner After installation, the same team monitors, updates and answers for the network.

Most networks we audit grew through patches: one new access point for every complaint. Corridors get more signal than they need, meeting rooms not enough. Nobody monitors anything. The cost shows up as lost productivity, poor guest reviews and company laptops sharing a network with visitors.

Why isn't a strong signal enough?

A room can show full bars and still fail when fifty laptops connect at once. In open-plan offices, auditoriums and busy hotels, the limit is capacity per channel. That is why we measure with the space in use: walls, materials, neighbouring interference and real people.

In hotels, every room holds several devices. We size for peak hour, never for the daily average. Channels and power levels come from our measurements, not from factory defaults.

How we work, from survey to management

  1. Survey: an on-site survey, with no commitment, that produces the access point plan. See how our site survey and coverage optimisation works.
  2. Design: number and placement of access points, channels, power and the networks to create. The proposal fixes scope, timeline and price.
  3. Installation: PoE, mounting and new cabling, usually outside working hours so operations never stop.
  4. Validation: a second measurement and handover of the final heat map. The contracted coverage is proven.
  5. Management: tuning, firmware and alerts handled by our team for the life of the contract.

Access points go where the design says, and there is rarely a socket there. Structured cabling in CAT6A and fibre is part of the same job: certified, with a tidy rack and every point labelled.

What do you receive at handover?

  • Heat map Real coverage, floor by floor, measured after installation.
  • Radio inventory Every access point with its assigned channel and power.
  • VLAN plan Which network serves guests, operations, devices and administration.
  • Cable certification Test results for every new point, labelled in the rack.

Which technology do we install, and why?

DataRoad has installed, configured and managed Ubiquiti UniFi networks for businesses since 2015 and is a manufacturer-certified partner with UniFi-certified engineers. The certification is in DataRoad's own name, with no intermediaries. Read the news on DataRoad's UniFi certification.

Eleven years on the same platform give us field data: historic Pombaline buildings, hotel corridors, hospital plant floors, warehouses with metal racking. We know what each model can handle before it goes on the ceiling.

  • One console for everything Access points, gateways and PoE switches from every site in a single dashboard.
  • Local autonomy The internal network keeps working even when the internet is down.
  • No mandatory recurring licences You pay for the hardware, and management is included in IT Unlimited.

A recent example: Clínica Mulher at the Twin Towers, with 192 network points, Wi-Fi 7 and a firewall.

When does Cisco Meraki make sense?

For campuses, groups with many sites or stricter security requirements, we propose Cisco Meraki, managed from the manufacturer's cloud.

Wi-Fi 6, 6E or Wi-Fi 7?

The newer standards pay off mainly where many devices share the same channel. They work across the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands and adjust channel and power automatically. We recommend the standard based on the density of the space, not on novelty.

How is the wireless network protected?

  • Isolation A dedicated guest VLAN, separate from the work network, with threat detection.
  • Redundancy Automatic failover between internet providers at critical sites.
  • Visibility Every access point and every connected client in view, with alarms handled by us.

The perimeter is closed with managed firewalls and cybersecurity.

A guest network in your company's colours

The captive portal carries your logo and colours, terms of use, a speed limit and an expiry time. Guests connect in seconds and the internal network stays invisible to them.

Several sites, one management

Every location follows the same policy and the same security standard, with real-time visibility. Changes and fixes are made remotely, without unnecessary site visits.

What drives the investment?

We quote after measuring, never before. The installation price depends on concrete factors:

  • Area and construction Square metres, number of floors, walls and materials.
  • Density How many people and devices connect at the same time.
  • Cabling How many new points are needed and whether a rack is already in place.
  • Existing equipment What can be kept under central management.
  • Sites One location or several under the same policy.

Ongoing management is part of IT Unlimited, with a fixed monthly fee and prices always quoted "from": Essential from €395/month + VAT (from 10 workstations, remote and phone support), Premium from €750 with unlimited on-site support, Premium 365 from €1,200 adding nights, weekends and public holidays. Annual contract, automatic renewal and no lock-in period.

Frequently asked questions

Do you measure before quoting?

Yes, always. Quoting Wi-Fi without measuring is guesswork, and that is how networks end up with too many or too few access points.

Can our current equipment stay?

Yes, if it supports central management. If it doesn't, we tell you in writing and the decision is yours.

Do we pay licences every year?

No, not with Ubiquiti UniFi. The cost is the hardware plus management and maintenance within IT Unlimited.

Who looks after the network after installation?

DataRoad, under an IT Unlimited contract, with console monitoring and regular tuning.

Can the guest portal carry our logo?

Yes. It stays separate from the internal network, with your brand colours, terms and usage limits.

Can one team manage all our sites?

Yes. They all sit in the same console, with shared policies and a real-time view.

How many access points do we need?

It depends on capacity, not just area. We set the number during the site survey, counting walls, materials, interference and people, and size for peak use.

How much does business Wi-Fi cost?

The price depends on the area to cover and the type of space. After the site survey, with no commitment, we send a proposal with scope, timeline and price.

Does the installation stop our team from working?

No. Mounting, cabling and PoE are done outside working hours, with the access points exactly where the design placed them.

Do you also do the cabling?

Yes. CAT6A structured cabling and fibre are part of the same job, certified, with organised and labelled racks.

What do I get at the end of the installation?

A final heat map, an access point and channel plan, a network map by VLAN and a certification report for the new cabling.

Can I separate guests, operations and equipment?

Yes. Each group sits on its own VLAN with its own policies and speed limits, and the working network stays protected.

Does the Wi-Fi keep working if the internet goes down?

The internal network keeps working because control is local. The internet link is a separate part, which can have redundancy and failover.

Do you take on one-off installations?

No. We install and take over management of the network under contract, for companies with more than 10 workstations. We do not sell equipment on its own.

The rest of your infrastructure, with the same point of contact

One partner accountable for all your IT, with immediate response times and a contractual SLA:
