Network aspects of relocation.
WHAT TO ESTABLISH EARLY
What connectivity is available at the new address Lead times for installation
THE LEAD TIME POINT
Connection installation frequently takes far longer than people allow.
Order it as early as possible.
WHAT TO PLAN
Cabling, before fit-out Where equipment will live Wireless coverage for the new layout
WHAT TO ARRANGE
Overlap between the old and new connections, if possible
WHY
It allows a phased move rather than a day with nothing working.
WHAT TO CHECK BEFORE MOVING DAY
That the new connection is live and tested That equipment is labelled That you have the configuration documented
WHAT TO UPDATE AFTERWARDS
Your address on record with services restricted by address Documentation
THAT FIRST ONE
Anything restricted to your old public address stops working.
Identify those before the move.
WHAT TO TEST ON ARRIVAL
Everything, systematically.
WHAT TO KEEP AVAILABLE
A mobile fallback during the transition.
