Lake Sherwood, CA

  • Owners Mark and Rosella wanted a network that operates reliably, seemingly invisibly. The single most important application for the owner is online stock trading, requiring fast response times and constant uptime. As of July 2023, in over two years, Island has not had one single issue, reboot, or disruption.

    ”We’re just happy the network is always there; we don’t even have to think about it.”

  • Integrator Brad Dupree was first drawn to Island’s cool design, but his wife was skeptical about adding another product to their home. “She’s not a techie and doesn’t like changes.” But, with kids aged 10 and 7, she became a huge fan of Island’s parental controls-scheduling by device and using the “pause” button for the internet when the kids aren’t paying attention.

    “Beyond the parental controls and firewall protection, the most surprising aspects were Island’s Smart-swap and the app itself-both blew my mind.”

  • The network needs for this family with three children revolve around not only the large size of the residence, but a lifestyle of frequent entertaining. The owners needed separate network isolation with parental controls and security filters for each, including notifications for any new device that joins the network.

    “Island makes setting up VLANs easy for isolating parts of the network, and our ability to use the app for filters and notifications has been a big plus. We love the app.”

  • Mobile Tech Solutions is a major AV installer in Florida. Roughly ten years ago, they started seeing big changes on the networking side of home installs, citing an evolution in today’s market: “90% of clients realize that networking is as important as electricity.” One such client is Dr. Santo BiFulco out of Tampa, FL, who equips his office and two homes with Island. Initially outfitted with a well-known high-end router manufacturer, Dr. BiFulco started to notice frequent router failures and Internet drops—exacerbated by poor support. He needed “beefy, bullet-proof” routers and Island has delivered—every issue he had was resolved within 48 hours, with added benefits of enhanced performance, default security filtering and a simplified user experience. The doctor’s main home previously experienced frequent outages, but Island’s dual-WAN “switches over in a couple of seconds—it’s now seamless.” Equally important to the features above, Dr. BiFulco is a passionate music lover with 30 Sonos devices located throughout his property. Island easily handles the device load, and he’ll soon begin using its integrated VPN to connect his office to both homes.

San Antonio, TX

  • With four boys and a home compound encompassing four separate buildings, a priority for this couple was to maintain 3 separate networks: for parents, kids, and guests. Valuable applications include Island-to-Island VPN for work from home, the ease of setting and scheduling parental controls, and supporting massive load levels of video and gaming with no performance hiccups.

    ”Overall, what I love most about Island is the ability to manage the entire property at the device level…nothing else can do that.”
