Don't let an outdated firewall throttle your new DVFiber connection. Ensure you get the speed you are paying for with our Free Network Readiness Audit and Zero-Upfront-Cost Hardware Upgrades.

Upgrading your business to local fiber is a smart move, but the internet connection entering your building is only half the equation. Before that data reaches your employees, it has to pass through your network firewall.
Older firewalls were built for the slower broadband speeds of the past. When you push gigabit fiber data through them—especially with essential security features turned on—the processor gets overwhelmed. The result? You pay for gigabit speeds, but your network is physically throttled down to a fraction of that performance.
You shouldn't have to choose between fully utilizing your new fiber speeds and maintaining strict network security, nor should you have to spend thousands of dollars on new routing equipment to make it happen.
When you partner with The A Team IT Services for your managed IT, we solve the hardware bottleneck for you.
We include a next-generation firewall upgrade—capable of handling full gigabit speeds—at no upfront hardware cost.
From rock-solid standard routing to advanced, compliance-ready security (HIPAA/FINRA), we deploy the exact hardware your business requires.
We handle the installation, the ongoing security patching, and the monitoring. You just enjoy a fast, secure network.

We conduct a brief, non-disruptive on-site audit of your current IT closet and network setup.

We provide a clear assessment detailing exactly what speeds your current hardware can handle and where your bottlenecks are.

We provide a streamlined proposal to upgrade your network hardware to support your fiber connection with zero upfront capital expense.
Please reach us at info@TheATeamIT.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
We standardize on enterprise-grade hardware to ensure your local fiber connection operates at its full potential without performance bottlenecks. To achieve this, we partner with industry-leading manufacturers, specifically utilizing Ubiquiti and Cisco Meraki appliances, depending on your business's specific security and compliance needs.
For businesses on our Foundation and Professional tiers, we implement advanced Ubiquiti firewalls. These devices are highly capable and specifically chosen for their exceptional throughput processing. They ensure you receive the full speed of your gigabit internet connection while providing robust, essential network security for your daily operations.
Our Elite tier utilizes Cisco Meraki security appliances. This plan is engineered specifically for businesses operating in heavily regulated industries, such as healthcare, finance, or legal services. Meraki firewalls provide advanced, granular security features—including deep-packet inspection and advanced intrusion prevention—necessary to meet strict compliance standards like HIPAA or FINRA.
No. We believe your business shouldn't have to choose between fully utilizing your new internet speeds and maintaining capital. The firewall hardware is provided as a service and is included in your monthly managed IT plan at zero upfront cost. We handle the initial investment, the installation, and the ongoing hardware lifecycle.
That is the purpose of our Free Network Readiness Audit. We will visit your office, evaluate your current IT infrastructure, discuss any industry-specific data regulations you need to follow, and recommend the exact hardware required to support your business safely and efficiently.
No commitment required. We respect your inbox and your time.
