By Popular Request... Subscription Plans are here!
Our goal at Quietech is to shift our culture towards one of preventing problems from happening, instead of reacting once they occur. Just like we routinely change the oil in our car to keep it running well, computers are just another hard-worked machine that need regular care to stay working correctly. We feel that solid preventative maintenance is a great way to fend off all of the stress, anxiety, and fear that come with a sudden computer failure. Check out our subscription packages below to see what we have to offer in the way of "stress insurance"! Rather wing it and wait for problems to pop-up? We are still happy to help when trouble hits your computer.

Got Wifi Dead Spots in your Home?
Allow us to introduce mesh routers. This is a GREAT way to expand the coverage in your home or business so that you have seamless wireless throughout.
So, what is a mesh router (aka mesh network)? "A mesh Wi-Fi router or mesh system joins two or more Wi-Fi access points together to create and share a single, seamless Wi-Fi network that can even be expanded to cover even the largest homes or buildings." In layman's terms, its a fancy network system that can make your wireless run significantly better throughout your entire home!
Mesh systems have pretty much eliminated the usefulness of network extenders / repeaters since they provide much better coverage than an extender ever can, and we are thrilled to offer these systems to our clients. So if you are experiencing dead-zones in your home wireless, slowdowns in certain portions of your home, etc., we can help!

July 16th - Artificial Intelligence Appreciation Day
Artificial Intelligence Appreciation Day is celebrated on July 16 each year. With discoveries in science, tech, and healthcare, A.I. offers the possibility of a more evolved future. A.I. tools already dominate the market making human life much easier. From travel and navigation to smartphone apps, A.I. has taken the world by storm and looks set to change the future. Although many believe that A.I. only emerged in recent years, its foundations reach back further than that. Artificial Intelligence Appreciation Day was created to celebrate the history and accomplishments of A.I. tech and raise awareness about its current and future use cases in human life.
Curious about what AI is without all the technical talk? This video provides an explanation in Layman's Terms : )

FYI Gmail Dropped Support for Less Secure Apps - 5-30-22
Back in May, Google stopped supporting "Less Secure Apps" for interacting with their email service. You may be asking yourself... "what the heck does that even mean?!"
Gmail wants you to go to gmail.com to read your mail. But many folks prefer to use a third-party program, like Outlook or Thunderbird to retrieve and organize their mail.
If you experienced sudden issues using your Gmail account anywhere but Gmail.com starting around May 30th, this change is why.
If you are still experiencing issues, reach out, and we can help solve them :) |
