Our Technologies
Broadband Solutions has the capability and expertise to provide your venue with a wide range of services.
Guest-room Connectivity
No matter what type of accommodation facility you run, a reliable, high speed internet connection in guestrooms is mandatory for today’s internet savvy traveller. Guests now expect to have access to a secure internet connection to upload their recent photos onto Facebook and stay in touch with family and friends, whilst hotels are providing more and more service to rooms across the internet with an internal interface. Downtime is not an option.
Broadband Solutions offers a range of flexible and scalable internet connections and purpose built hospitality hardware that allow you to manage the allocation of your bandwidth to guestrooms, whilst ensuring that your administration network of services are maintained to the highest quality. Not only do we offer affordable, high speed internet connections, but also failsafe redundancy options to make sure your connection is always up and running.
Our connection options range from dedicated ADSL2+ to Midband Ethernet and Fibre Optic Internet, whilst our NetBox6 hardware provides the tools you need to manage the allocation of your bandwidth. You can allocate the bandwidth up or down to particular areas of your business as you need them, which comes particularly useful when you have an important conference that requires high bandwidth.
We will tailor a solution to cater to your hotel’s exact needs – from 500 room resort complexes to 3 room boutique hotels – our solution will give you the bandwidth and speed you need to keep your guests online and happy, without interfering with your administration and other in-room and hotel services.

WiFi Services
WiFi access within hotels is now an expected service by most travellers, especially business travellers, and a recent survey1 conducted in the US of 1,200 people from Asia, North America and Europe goes even further, suggesting that hotels that have poor WiFi service and availability may be losing more than a third of their business travel clientele. The study was conducted by a provider of ‘enterprise mobility services, such as 3G and WiFi connectivity for corporate clients, and highlights the increasing demand for high-quality WiFi connectivity for business travellers.
According to another survey2 conducted by American firm Deloitte, the vast majority of business travellers say that free high-speed internet is a key critera in choosing which hotel they stay at, while perhaps the most revealing statistic is that 36% of business travellers will take into account a bad WiFi experience they’ve had at a hotel when deciding whether to rebook – and that for 16% of business travellers, this bad experience can influence their decisions about an entire hotel chain.
Get your WiFi services sorted and reap the benefits!
Broadband Solutions will analyse your hotel’s requirements for WiFi access and in consultation with you and our on-site installation partners Cisco and Netcomm, tailor a solution specific to your needs and budget. We’ll ensure your guests are happy with their access to high-speed internet and subsequently improve your repeat and referral business.

Connect Multiple Locations
When you have hospitality venues in multiple locations across Australia, secure and cost effective networking solutions are essential. Broadband Solutions will integrate your head office with other branches anywhere in Australia or the world, with our MPLS VPN service, which offers all the benefits of traditional VPN without the high costs, security risks or the hassle of managing the network yourself.
Unlike a standard internet connection, a Broadband Solutions MPLS VPN has inbuilt security and the performance of the network is entirely consistent and controlled. This is especially important for companies that want to converge their voice, data and video networks into a single network that can carry all traffic delivering your business significant cost savings.
Importantly, our MPLS service is flexible and scalable. We work with you to ensure your service evolves as your business grows. We can upgrade your bandwidth and add or delete service locations at any stage.
Broadband Solutions specialises in providing MPLS VPN networks to multiple location businesses. We tailor solutions specific to your network requirements and budget and with our dual carrier redundancy options, we can guarantee you the most reliable network possible.
MPLS VPN service benefits
- Quality and Reliability of Service – Broadband Solutions ensures that your bandwidth, latency, jitter and packet loss are carefully controlled. Our bandwidth management tools also allow you to dedicate a particular amount of bandwidth to mission critical applications.
- Improved Network Redundancy – we design your MPLS network so that it can overcome individual hardware (router) faults or line disconnections. In such cases, the data is re-routed through the next optimum path with a fail-over time of 50 ms or lesser. On top of this we can add a second alternative carrier with an automatic switchover for an extra redundancy option.
- Easy and Cost Effective Expansion – especially useful for chains with many locations and new locations opening regularly. An MPLS network is easy to manage and easy for instantaneous addition and deletion of sites.
- Improved Security – Broadband Solutions takes full responsibility for the security of information that is sent over your MPLS network. We also create IP tunnels throughout the network so there is no need for any encryption by the user-end.
- Faster traffic – With a Broadband Solutions MPLS network, there are lesser number of hops between the various network points resulting in improved response times and application performance.
- Prioritise your traffic – you can specify what type of data gets priority in your network. For example, data, voice, video etc. can be set individual performance characteristics.
- 99.95% guaranteed uptime with built-in, alternative carrier and redundancy options.
- Fully secure
- 24/7 monitoring, management and support
- Clearly defined SLAs for added peace of mind
Bandwidth Management Gateways
Tired of complaints from guests or conference delegates about their systems freezing from a slow internet connection? Are your hotel services and admin team affected by users overloading otherparts of your network?
Excessive demand in one area of your network, will slow internet performance for all users on your network. Upgrading your bandwidth may improve this situation in the short term, but will not solve the problem.
You need to be able to manage and allocate your own bandwidth so that you can set thresholds for each particular area of your business – thereby protecting the other areas and services.
Network bandwidth management is the key to maintaining your network across all areas of your hotel, ensuring high-quality service is maintained to your conference rooms, in-room guest services and your core administration network. This is particularly demonstrated if you are relying on one major connection to the internet for your entire hotel.
Broadband Solutions will give you the tools you need to manage and control the use of your own bandwidth. From one central location, Broadband Solutions allows you to control download and upload rates for every device connected to your network, or departments as a whole, as well as many other advanced features such as website blocking, firewall configuration and much more.
Broadband Solutions are experts in providing bandwidth management tools that allow you to take back control of where and when your data is being used. Our Bandwidth Management solutions are completely scalable and will accommodate information on just where your bandwidth is being used.
Bandwidth Management benefits
- Allows you to dedicate speed and/or bandwidth where and when it’s needed most
- Improves user experience – giving you happier guests, conference delegates and staff
- Saves you money – you may not need that extra connection after all – managing your bandwidth will see more efficient usage of your existing allocation
- Ensures all business areas are allocated enough bandwidth to function smoothly and safeguards the key service connections you need to run your business
- Protects your business with centralised security, firewall configuration, website blocking etc.
- Tracks bandwidth use, so you can see who uses what and when
- Gives you complete flexibility – dial the bandwidth up or down to certain business areas or services as required
- Delivers control back to you over what can be accessed, making it especially useful for school groups and allowing you to prevent dangerous downloads
