Access Your Favorite Movies, TV Shows and Music with a Home Network Setup

As we’ve mentioned in previous blogs, your home network affects the way your smart home technology functions. It can make or break your automation technology as it is the system through which your products communicate and function. But what exactly does that mean for your Newport, Rhode Island home?

Your home network setup is linked to your basic internet services (web-searching, email, etc.) as well as your more sophisticated technology products like your smart thermostat, lighting control, speakers and more.

That’s why when moving forward with a smart home automation system, it’s imperative that you consider the network setup in your Westerly home.
