Not sure if you're ready for Infotainment?

Here's how you can perform your own tech checkup:

1. Check your signal strength at the TV:

Download a signal checker app on your phone, and check the strength at your TV. This will give you an accurate reading of signal strength. -60dBm is required, but the closer you are to 0dBm, the better.

2. Check your network bandwidth:

You can find this on your internet bill or use a tool like speedtest.net. We require a minimum of 5 mbps per box, but 10mpbs is recommended.

3. Assess the network structure:

Are you separating your operational network needs from your guest network structure? It will help you be more efficient with your internet and create a better experience for guests and staff.

Or, you can let us do the work! Request a quote today to get an expert assessment.
