Wireless LAN - Gwent Healthcare NHS



For two years Gwent Healthcare NHS Trust has enjoyed the simplicity of using an outdoor wireless LAN to connect various buildings at their St Cadocs Hospital site in Gwent. Avonline PLC deployed the Wavelength Solutions equipment and provides business hour emergency support service in case of system failure. The system has remained stable during the two year period and the installation and support services provided by Avonline have been excellent.

Merrill Lynch



Dear Tony,

Just to confirm how happy we are with the satellite system.

As you know we initially contacted you because we were unable to make the Merrill Lynch in house VPN work effectively on an Aramiska satellite system. We had spent a considerable amount of time trying to improve the performance of Aramiska with very little success and although you assured us your system had successfully conquered the problems associated with satellite and VPNs we were somewhat sceptical. However, I'm pleased to report that from the moment of installation the system has worked extremely well and reliably.

The systems department at Merrill Lynch are particularly impressed and some what surprised with the successful installation and performance of the Avonline Satellite system.

Kind Regards,

Maryam Fardoost

Wireless Broadband access for Madonna

Satellite Broadband service was delivered just before Guy Ritchie and Madonna renewed their vows during their fourth wedding anniversary on Dec 22 2004.

The custom installation required camouflage for the satellite dish to allow it to blend in with the prestigious surroundings. To minimise the impact of the installation, once the satellite equipment was successfully installed, the latest wireless technology was then added to distribute a Broadband connection to three separate parts of the estate. Other than high speed wireless Broadband access around the estate, the recent guests at Ashcombe House would be hard pressed to notice that Avonline were ever there.

With an expanding selection of VIP customers including London Stock Exchange, Sony, Merrill Lynch and the London School of Economics, Avonline is skilled at delivering a high quality bespoke service where thoughtful planning and special consideration of customer requirements is paramount.

In addition to Broadband Internet access, typically, our Satellite installations can support Wireless (“WiFi”) hotspots, Voice over IP (VOIP), video streaming and CCTV/Security systems. A UK network of experienced Avonline technicians ensures each installation runs smoothly.

Teledex LLC, Gloucestershire

Dear Mr Waters,

This it to confirm that your engineer installed a S2 Satellite system to our NCE offices in Gloucestershire on the 13th of June.

I have to complement you on your engineer's work - he, arrived on time, did a great job with the minimum of fuss & ensured all was working properly before leaving. Also very polite & tidy. There were problems relating to our WiFi connection which he also attempted to resolve before leaving – for which I was very grateful.

Speed has been good, and certainly 10x a standard Modem is no exaggeration. I can now link into the US office network with ease & have access sensibly to all the systems there.

The support & service to date has been faultless & we are all enjoying the benefits of Broadband.

Kind regards,

Eric G Rogers Manager - NCE

Hi Tony

Following our discussion yesterday I am really happy to recommend you to Scottish Enterprise. You were great to deal with - answered all my questions (however untechnical) over the phone, I placed my order and you installed 7 days later.

The engineer was very efficient and caused minimum disruption and my Broadband has been running smoothly since.
Long may it continue! We are quite happy to receive a site visit as long as you give us a bit of warning.

William Crighton, Lanarkshire

The satellite installation went very smoothly; overall it took about 1hr and 20 minutes!

The engineer (Justin) answered any queries that I had, my main concern was the weather, as the area I live in is sometimes prone to some extreme conditions, but I've not had any problems using the system when the weather has been extreme.

Justin also outlined what satellite I was connected to, the location of it and how the system works, which was very helpful and useful.

Once the system was installed and the modem set up he also showed me how to configure the pc onto the ethernet connection and gave me a demonstration of the system.

Overall from the installation to the demonstration, everything went really smoothly, all questions I had where answered and I was very pleased with the system.

From using the system for the past few weeks now, it has enable me to do so much more, which I couldn't achieve due to being on a modem!

You don't need to do anything as once the system is connected it's all automatic when you start your pc, which is a good point for someone who maybe is not IT literate!

Other than that I'm very happy with it and wouldn't swap it for the world!


Regards

William Crighton
