My goal is to get our small-to-mid-size office network running smoothly, securely, and with room to scale. The work is purely technical support focused on full network setup and ongoing maintenance. Scope of the job The environment includes routers, switches, several wireless access points, and a mixed fleet of laptops, VoIP phones, and IoT devices. I need someone to: • Plan and configure the wired backbone (VLANs, trunking, QoS) • Optimise WiFi coverage, assign channels, and fine-tune roaming settings • Harden the entire network with firewall rules, WPA3, and up-to-date firmware Most of the hardware is already on-site and powered up; it just isn’t talking to each other reliably. You’ll start with a quick audit, document the current layout, propose any tweaks or firmware upgrades, then implement the agreed changes. Clear, step-by-step documentation should be delivered so my in-house team can handle basic moves, adds, and changes after you’re done. Acceptance criteria 1. All switches, routers, and access points reachable via secure management interface 2. Wired and wireless clients obtain stable connectivity and expected throughput 3. Security scan shows no open management ports externally and strong WiFi encryption enabled 4. Final network diagram and change log supplied in editable format (Visio, [login to view URL], or similar) Remote configuration is fine as long as we can screen-share; onsite work may be arranged if necessary. If you’re fluent with Cisco IOS or Ubiquiti UniFi, mention it—those are the primary platforms in play.

I can start with a paid remote audit before any live configuration. My rate is $25/hour, with a four-hour cap for this first stage. Using a redacted device inventory, current topology, symptoms, and configuration exports, I will deliver an editable current-state diagram, a prioritized issue list, a VLAN/Wi-Fi/security change plan, and an acceptance checklist. Work starts after a $100 Milestone is funded and the redacted materials are received. Delivery is within two business days. This stage excludes credentials, screen sharing, live configuration, firmware changes, and onsite work. Acceptance is written confirmation or one list of omissions within the agreed audit. One correction requested within three business days is included. Live configuration can be scoped separately after the audit. If this audit-first stage fits, please confirm and I will send the input checklist.
