PC Scientist · Mcmahons Point

One flat, two jobs: McMahons Point computer repair and IT support for home and work

When your McMahons Point flat is a home in the evening and a workplace by day, and right now the visiting cousin's phone sits on the same Wi-Fi as the client folders. Shared files open to anyone and cloud drives disconnecting mid-save - that is the risk.

We set up a separate guest network and check the work computers on a visit, or look remotely first. We show you what is shared and what should not be. Ask for a quote in writing if you would like it before deciding.
