For decision-makers short on time.

  • 01Site survey: on-site signal measurement, with heatmap and dead zones.
  • 02It identifies interference and sets how many access points, where and how.
  • 03For new Wi-Fi or to fix one that keeps failing.
  • 04After installation, the network is managed under an IT Unlimited contract.

Wi-Fi that fails in meeting rooms, calls that drop when you change floor, new access points that fixed nothing: the problem is almost never a lack of equipment. DataRoad, one of the reference names in Portugal for business Wi-Fi, measures the signal in your space before anything is bought and delivers a fixed access point plan, so the investment works first time.

A Wi-Fi site survey shows the heatmap, pinpoints interference and coverage gaps and states how many access points are needed, which model, where and with what configuration. It serves companies in Greater Lisbon that are installing Wi-Fi or already have one that fails, from our headquarters in Alfragide and with support across the whole country.

Why does buying more access points not fix the Wi-Fi?

Because the problem is rarely quantity. It is position, channel, power or the building itself. Without measurement, equipment is added at random and the coverage holes stay in the same place, now with more interference.

With data measured on site, every decision stops being guesswork. See the guide when a site survey makes sense.

What do you receive at the end of the site survey?

  • Heatmap The real signal, point by point, across the whole space.
  • Coverage holes Where Wi-Fi does not reach or arrives weak.
  • Radio noise Saturated channels and what is disrupting them.
  • Equipment plan Number, model and position of each access point; see how many access points you need.
  • Tuning Channels, power levels and roaming.
  • Report for management Conclusions and recommendations ready for approval.

What happens between the measurement and a working network?

  1. Visit and measurement: we walk the space and listen to what the team needs.
  2. Design and proposal: solution, materials and price fixed before going ahead.
  3. Installation: tidy works, without stopping the people who are working.
  4. Validation: a new measurement, documentation, warranty and follow-up.

What guarantees does DataRoad give in business Wi-Fi?

  • Proven scale 1321 devices and more than 138 Ubiquiti sites under management.
  • Professional equipment Reliable brands, with warranty.
  • Security by design VLANs and separate networks by user profile.
  • One team from start to finish From survey to maintenance, with no subcontracting.
  • Management after the works The network moves to IT Unlimited, for a fixed monthly fee.
  • Credentials 11 years, 232 clients and Top 5% SME (source: scoring.pt).

We do not carry out one-off jobs or sell loose equipment: the work is under contract and the installed network stays our responsibility. For the cabled side, see structured cabling and network infrastructure.

Where do we carry out site surveys?

Throughout Greater Lisbon, from Alfragide: from Sintra, Cascais and Oeiras to Loures, Odivelas and Vila Franca de Xira, from Almada and Barreiro to Setúbal, including the city of Lisbon and Parque das Nações. In the rest of the country, on-site work is planned case by case, with immediate remote support.

Questions from decision-makers

What is a Wi-Fi site survey for?

A Wi-Fi site survey lets you decide the investment with data rather than estimates. It measures the signal across the whole space, draws the heatmap and identifies dead zones and interference before money is spent on equipment. The result is a plan with the number, model and position of every access point.

Is it worth it in a space that has no Wi-Fi yet?

Yes. In an empty space or one under construction, a predictive study states how many access points are needed and where, before purchase, and avoids buying too much or too little equipment. After installation, a new on-site measurement confirms that coverage matches what was designed.

Our current Wi-Fi keeps failing. Will the survey help?

Yes, because it isolates the cause: coverage, noise, configuration or equipment. Often the fix is changing positions, channels and power levels rather than buying more access points. The report includes a concrete, prioritised plan. Read also how to eliminate dead zones in the office.

What does the report contain?

The report includes the heatmap of the whole space, areas of weak coverage, saturated channels and sources of interference, the access point plan and configuration recommendations. It is written to be read and approved by management, not only by the technical team.

Do you also install and manage the network?

Yes. DataRoad carries out the plan, with warranty, and the network is then managed under an IT Unlimited contract, for a fixed monthly fee. You have a single party responsible for the Wi-Fi network after the works, for monitoring, changes and remote, on-site and phone support.

How much does a site survey cost?

The price of a site survey depends on the floor area, the number of floors and the type of building, and it is fixed in the proposal before we start. There are no surprises on the invoice: measurement, report and equipment plan are described in writing, and the proposal comes with no commitment.
