Hard Problem Diagnosis

Root cause for what has been broken for months. Not a ticket queue, not another round of replacing hardware: instrumentation, reproduction, isolation, and a written explanation.

When nothing else has worked, we find it.

Sound familiar?

  • A flaky network that has survived two vendor swaps and a full hardware refresh
  • Wi-Fi that drops in one wing, at one time of day, for some devices
  • A VPN that half works, depending on who you ask
  • Backups that "succeed" every night and have never been restored
  • An M365 tenant doing something nobody can explain
  • A problem that has been open so long the ticket has its own nickname

What we do

  • Instrument: capture what is really happening, not what the dashboard says
  • Reproduce: turn "sometimes" into "every time, on demand"
  • Isolate: narrow it to the layer, the device, the line of config
  • Fix: correct the root cause, not the symptom
  • Document: hand you the why in plain language so it stays fixed
  • Work alongside your team and your vendors, not around them

The hotel network three companies couldn't fix

Problem
A multi-vendor hotel network with guest and staff Wi-Fi that kept failing. Three other companies had each replaced hardware. The problem stayed.
What we found
The fault didn't live inside any one vendor's box. It lived in how the pieces had been stitched together over the years, and nobody had documented it.
Result
Fixed at the root cause, documented so the next vendor can't reintroduce it.
