Just thought it’d be fun to report on a recent multimedia setup we put together for a newly renovated home in Melbourne’s inner suburbs…

We were brought in quite late, after all cabling had been laid by the electricians. Unfortunately in planning the wiring, all data ports were put in where phones were to be placed and close to where internet would be used. As the house retained it’s old double brick shell, it was thought it would be hard to get a wireless network happening. How wrong they were.

We were called in to get the house online with a multimedia system. A large database of movies had been collected by the kids, but at present was all stored on computers.

It was decided that, using 4 x Apple Airport Express units, we would first turn the house wireless. This would enable everyone to access the internet on their laptops from anywhere on the property (including outside by the pool). In addition, it would allow us to use some Network Media Players as receivers by each TV. The TVs we also sourced for them were 4 x LG 32″ models as well as 2 x brand new Samsung LED screens (That’s right, we can source many other home entertainment products outside those listed on the site… just ask!).
