Request a backup assessmentWHAT WE DO
Keep Essential Systems Online During an Internet Outage
We connect a second internet service and configure the network to switch over when the main line fails. We then test the changeover and confirm which systems should keep priority during an outage.
Primary and Backup Link Design
We select and configure primary and backup connections for the site and its critical systems.
Automatic switching to backup
Traffic shifts to backup when the main path fails.
Priority for essential systems
We prioritise agreed systems such as payments and cloud tools when backup capacity is limited.
Failover Testing
We test what happens when the main connection fails and when it returns.
PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY
Test the backup before you need it.
We assess the available connections and agree which systems need priority. Switching is tested during setup; some calls and sessions may need to reconnect when the internet connection changes.
You deal directly with the person responsible for your work, from the first assessment through testing and follow-up.
Know what happens next.
- Identify the systems affected by an outage.
- Check suitable backup connections at your location.
- Configure automatic switching and traffic priorities.
- Test a main-line failure and recovery.

Check the areas we cover →SERVICE FAQS
A few things you might be wondering.
Is failover only for large companies?
No. Any business or site that loses revenue during outages can benefit from failover.
What can be used as backup internet?
Common options include fibre plus 4G/5G, dual fixed lines, or satellite plus fixed broadband.
Will sessions drop during failover?
Failover reduces downtime, but some active calls or online sessions may briefly reconnect during the switch.
