How It Works
Most businesses pick an internet provider based on whatever sales rep calls first. That means you might be overpaying, underprovisioned, or locked into a carrier that does not serve your area well.
As a carrier partner, Brydan Solutions has access to multiple internet providers across Las Vegas and Nevada. We evaluate what is available at your location, compare pricing and service levels across carriers, and recommend the best fit for your specific needs.
We handle the paperwork and provisioning coordination. The carrier installs and manages the circuit. You get billed directly by the carrier — no middleman markup, no surprise fees from us. We configure your router and firewall to use the new connection, and you are online.
This is a free service for our managed IT clients. We earn a commission from the carrier — which means our incentive is to find you the right solution, not the most expensive one.
When You Need Us
Your primary connection goes down and your business stops. A backup circuit — fiber, fixed wireless, or 4G/5G cellular — keeps your team working while the primary is restored. Essential for businesses that cannot afford downtime.
Moving offices? Opening a second location? We evaluate what carriers and speeds are available at your new address before you sign a lease. We get circuits ordered and provisioned so connectivity is ready on move-in day.
Many businesses are overpaying for internet because they signed a contract years ago and never renegotiated. We compare current carrier pricing and often find faster service at a lower cost — sometimes from the same provider.
Multiple locations or heavy cloud usage? SD-WAN combines multiple internet connections into one managed network — improving performance, enabling automatic failover, and simplifying management across offices.
Starting from scratch? We handle carrier selection, speed recommendations based on your team size and cloud usage, provisioning coordination, and equipment configuration. One point of contact for the entire process.
When wired connections fail, a cellular failover keeps you online instantly. We provision and configure 4G/5G backup connections that activate automatically — no manual switching, no downtime for your team.
Connection Types
Symmetrical speeds, guaranteed bandwidth, enterprise-grade SLAs. Best for businesses with heavy cloud usage, VoIP, or multiple locations.
High-speed shared connections at lower cost. Good for smaller offices where dedicated fiber is not cost-justified.
Line-of-sight wireless connections. Fast deployment, good for locations where fiber is not yet available or as a backup to wired service.
Instant failover when wired connections go down. Always-on backup that activates automatically. Essential for businesses that cannot tolerate any downtime.
Failover
Business internet failover is a second internet connection that takes over automatically when your primary line goes down. Your firewall watches the main circuit, and when it stops passing traffic, routing switches to the backup within seconds. When the primary comes back, traffic switches home again.
The part most businesses get wrong is buying a second circuit from the same carrier, over the same physical path, into the same building entry point. When a backhoe finds that conduit, both circuits go down together. Real redundancy means a different carrier, a different medium, or both — fibre backed by fixed wireless, or fibre backed by 4G/5G cellular.
What your team notices during a failover depends on what they are doing. Email and file sync recover on their own. Anything holding a live session — a VoIP call in progress, a remote desktop connection — typically drops and needs reconnecting, which takes seconds rather than minutes.
Automatic failover switches without anyone doing anything. Manual means someone has to notice and swap a cable — which does not help at 6am on a Saturday.
A backup on the same carrier and same conduit is not a backup. Different carrier, different medium, ideally a different building entry.
A backup circuit does not have to match your primary. It has to carry phones, email, and your line-of-business apps until the main line returns.
Failover that has never been tested is a theory. We fail it over deliberately so the first real test is not during an actual outage.
The useful way to size this is not to look up an industry downtime statistic — it is to work out your own number. Take your staff cost for an hour, add the revenue you cannot collect while card payments and phones are down, and multiply by how long your carrier realistically takes to restore service. For most Las Vegas offices the honest answer to that last part is half a day, not half an hour.
Then compare it to the monthly cost of a backup circuit, which for a small office is usually in the range of a phone bill. If a single half-day outage costs more than a year of backup connectivity, the decision makes itself.
There is a second cost people forget: the outages that are not total. A circuit that drops for ninety seconds every twenty minutes does not register as "the internet is down," but it drops calls, stalls uploads, and burns a day of everyone's patience. Those are often harder to get a carrier to act on, which is where having someone who will escalate on your behalf matters. Our network support team monitors circuits continuously and builds the evidence carriers ask for.
Business internet is not residential service with a different invoice. A commercial circuit comes with a service level agreement, a repair commitment, static addressing where you need it, and a support queue that does not begin by asking you to reboot the router.
What is actually available at your address varies street by street in Las Vegas, and often building by building. A suite in a Sahara Avenue office park may have three fibre carriers already in the riser; a warehouse near the 15 may have none, and fixed wireless is the realistic answer. We check what is genuinely serviceable at your location before recommending anything — not what a carrier's coverage map claims.
If you are moving offices, this is worth starting earlier than feels necessary. A new fibre build can take 60 to 120 days when construction is required, and that timeline is the one thing no amount of escalation compresses.
Once your phones are VoIP and your files are in Microsoft 365, your internet connection stops being a convenience and becomes the thing the business runs on. An outage no longer means "we cannot browse the web" — it means the phones are dead and nobody can open a document.
Call quality is also more sensitive to jitter and packet loss than to raw speed. A connection that benchmarks well can still produce choppy calls if it is unstable under load. We size and configure circuits with voice traffic prioritised, which is usually the difference between VoIP that works and VoIP people complain about.

Common Questions
No. Our connectivity brokerage service is free for our managed IT clients. We are compensated by the carrier through a referral commission. This means our incentive is to find you the right solution, not the most expensive one. You pay the carrier directly at their standard rates.
This service is primarily offered to our managed IT clients as part of our full-service approach. However, if you are a Las Vegas business looking for help evaluating internet options, contact us and we will see how we can help.
It depends on the connection type. Broadband and cellular backup can often be provisioned within days. Dedicated fiber typically takes 30 to 90 days depending on whether the building already has fiber infrastructure. We set expectations upfront and coordinate the entire process so you know exactly what to expect.
Yes. We can review your current contract, check when it expires, and evaluate whether better options exist for when your term is up. If you need backup internet or a second connection now, we can add that alongside your existing service without affecting your current contract.
We have access to a wide range of national and regional carriers through our carrier partnerships. Rather than being locked to one provider, we compare options across multiple carriers to find the best combination of speed, reliability, and price for your specific location and needs.
Business internet failover is a second connection that takes over automatically when your primary line stops passing traffic. Your firewall monitors the main circuit and reroutes to the backup within seconds, then switches back when the primary recovers. Email and file sync recover on their own; anything holding a live session, such as a VoIP call in progress, drops and reconnects. The important detail is diversity — a backup from the same carrier over the same physical path fails at the same moment the primary does.
A backup circuit does not need to match your primary, so it is usually a good deal cheaper — it only has to carry phones, email, and your core applications until the main line returns. For most small Las Vegas offices, fixed wireless or a 4G/5G failover connection lands in the range of a monthly phone bill. Compare that against what a half-day outage costs you in idle staff and uncollected payments, and the arithmetic is normally straightforward. You pay the carrier directly; we do not mark it up.
