Case Study - Royal Asiatic Society
The Client: Royal Asiatic Society
The Society provides a forum for those who are interested in the history, languages, cultures and religions of Asia to meet and exchange ideas. It offers lectures and seminars and it provides facilities for research and publishing.
Pimlico Computers has provided IT support to the Society for many years, successfully modernizing their technology to incorporate the latest advancements.
Plan: Proactive.
Location: NW1, London.
Job Specifics:
The client has requested a comprehensive upgrade of their internet and Wi-Fi infrastructure, as they are experiencing connectivity issues during conferences and lectures. Furthermore, they lease their office and conferencing facilities to a local university and aim to provide a faster and more stable connection.
The Challenges:
-
On initial inspection there was no fibre broadband available at this location.
-
Having a third party accessing the office there is potential for security issues with the main office network.
The Solutions:
-
We conducted some investigative work and discovered a neighboring office that had a dedicated fiber line installed. We successfully contacted the provider and they were able to run a fibre connection to the office.
-
We installed several Ubiquiti Wi-fi disks with two seperate networks one for guest access and one for the main office network.
Technologies utilised:
The Outcomes:
The implementation of a high-speed fiber optic network in the office has resolved all connectivity issues for daily operations, as well as for special events and conferences. Additionally, it has enhanced security by providing visitors with a dedicated guest network that is entirely separate from the main office network.

Pimlico Computers have been working with me and my international hair brand for over 8 years. Nothing is too big or too small for them to resolve and I really don’t know what we would have done without them over all these years. I cannot recommend them enough and hope that our working relationship will continue for years to come.
