Homes in Livermore

Livermore's oldest houses sit within walking distance of downtown, in neighborhoods where some homes were built in the early twentieth century. Elsewhere there are pockets of small and mid-sized single-family homes of the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. Springtown broke ground in 1962 as a community for residents 50 and older, laid out around a nine-hole golf course.

Houses from the 1970s and 1980s are a little larger, and those from the 1990s and 2000s are larger again, some with in-law units. Out in the wine country, custom homes sit on vineyard parcels beside small family wineries and olive orchards. Properties like these often have a barn, a shop or a tasting room set apart from the main house.

William Mendenhall laid out Livermore in 1869 beside the new railroad, and the town incorporated in 1876. The national laboratory arrived in 1952, and the population roughly tripled between 1970 and 2000.

What that means for your Wi-Fi

Vineyard properties have buildings far apart

A house, a barn and a tasting room can sit hundreds of feet from each other. We link them with buried cable, or a point-to-point wireless bridge when trenching through vines is not practical.

Summer living moves out to the yard

Warm evenings put people at the pool and on the patio, where indoor Wi-Fi fades. We add outdoor access points wired back to the house so cameras, speakers and phones stay connected.

Larger 1990s and 2000s homes with in-law units

Big two-story houses and attached in-law suites are more than a single router can cover. We wire an access point for each floor and one for the suite, with its own guest network if you want it.

Questions about Wi-Fi in Livermore

Can you connect a barn or tasting room on a Livermore vineyard property?

Yes. Buildings on these properties can sit hundreds of feet apart, well beyond Wi-Fi from the house. We link them with buried cable, or a point-to-point wireless bridge when trenching through vines is not practical, then add an access point in each building.

How do I get Wi-Fi by the pool and patio?

With access points made for outdoors. Indoor Wi-Fi fades once you step outside, and warm evenings put people in the yard. We add outdoor access points wired back to the house so cameras, speakers and phones stay connected.

Will one router cover a big Livermore house with an in-law unit?

Rarely. Larger two-story houses and attached in-law suites are more than a single router can cover. We wire an access point for each floor and one for the suite, and can give the suite its own guest network if you want it.
