ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Oct. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- OnTech Smart Services, a company dedicated to the installation, setup and personalized education of smart home products, today announced it is the preferred installation partner for Linksys' mesh Wi-Fi systems.

Linksys has observed a nearly 200 percent lift in year-over-year growth of whole home Wi-Fi, including usage of the Velop mesh Wi-Fi system. This partnership provides seamless access to OnTech's professional installation services directly from the Linksys website.

Jeremy McCarty, the Head of OnTech Smart Services: "With many Americans working from home and learning remotely, reliable Wi-Fi is more important than ever. Dead spots, slow speeds and non-secure connections are just a few of the Wi-Fi issues an average consumer may face. That's why OnTech is proud to expand our existing relationship with Linksys, giving their customers access to OnTech installation services that provide worry-free Wi-Fi."

L.C. Wu, chief operating officer, Connected Home Division (Linksys Wemo, Phyn), Belkin International: "When we unveiled our partnership with OnTech last year, we did so knowing we could deliver reliable networking to serve as the foundation of every smart home. At Linksys, our mission is to build innovative, future-ready wireless technologies that will someday connect every person and everything in the world, effortlessly, reliably, and securely. One year later we find ourselves in a new work and school from home environment where networking has become even more critical. Our Velop system remains our top selling product, and with add-on features like Linksys Shield, Aware and now HomeKit, we look forward to further growth of our Velop product line with nationwide installation from OnTech."
