Plain-English help with smart speakers, lights, cameras and thermostats. Setup, fixes and friendly advice across Swindon and 60 miles around.
Smart home gadgets are wonderful when they work and a real headache when they don't. I help you get the most out of yours, whether that's setting up a new smart speaker, getting your lights to come on at sunset, or fixing a camera that keeps dropping off the network.I hold an MSc in Computer Networking and Cyber Security, and I previously worked as a field technician with a UK internet provider, so the underlying tech is second nature to me. But I'll always explain things in plain English, at your pace, and never make you feel daft for asking.I cover Swindon and the surrounding area, up to 60 miles. Whether you've got one device or a whole house full, I'll help you get everything talking to each other and working the way you want it to. Pick up the phone whenever suits you, and we'll have a chat about what you need.
