PC Scientist · Northern Beaches · Retail and cafe Wi-Fi
Summer on the Northern Beaches means wet towels at your counter, a dozen phones hunting for the password, and an EFTPOS machine that suddenly needs three tries. When the shop and the swimmers share one network, the payment side loses.
We untangle that for cafes and shops from Dee Why to Avalon Beach, giving staff gear its own network and visitors a separate one. Call 0493 563 381 after close, or book an eligible visit online.

Retail and cafe Wi-Fi · Northern Beaches
Beach trade swings hard with the weather. A setup that handles a grey Tuesday can fold when every table fills after a morning swim. We look at your busiest days, not your average ones, and size the network for those.
We set up staff and visitor networks for cafes, takeaways, and small shops in Dee Why, Collaroy, Curl Curl, Brookvale, Balgowlah, and Avalon Beach. Glass frontages, outdoor seating, and seasonal crowds all play a part, so we test at the counter and the outside tables, not just beside the modem.

Swimmers queueing, reader on its third try, stockroom phone out of range. For a whole-office plan, see business networks on the Northern Beaches.
When the beach empties into the cafe, we test how many phones the network carries before the card reader starts to lag.
Payment readers, ordering tablets, and docket printers moved to the staff network and set to rejoin by themselves after an outage.
Customers join a separate network with its own password, and it has no path to the till or the office laptop.
Long showrooms and deep cafes often keep the modem at one end. We carry signal to where staff actually work and serve.
When the internet company says nothing is wrong, we test the line and the shop network so you can see which one drops.

FAQ
Yes. Dee Why, Collaroy, Brookvale, Balgowlah, and Avalon Beach are all on the regular run, and we go further along the peninsula on request.
Tell us the suburb and what drops on a busy day. We will say whether a remote check or a visit should happen first, and what it is likely to cost.
Load builds through the day. Each phone that joins a shared network takes a slice of the connection, and by lunch the reader is queuing behind customers scrolling. A hot shelf around an older modem can make it less reliable too.
We measure what happens at the busy hour, then separate payments from visitors.
It is usually the best time. Quiet weeks leave room to test, move gear, and run a cable without customers waiting.
Getting it right before the warm months means the first big weekend is when you see it work, rather than when you find out it does not.
Who supplies the internet, where the modem sits, which devices drop, and the days that hurt most. A phone photo of the modem area helps.
If you are unsure about any of it, describe what happens at the counter and we work out the rest together on the day.
