Livestreaming your services, running ProPresenter over the network, and keeping the congregation online โ none of it works without a reliable, properly sized internet connection behind it.
Church internet needs to handle livestream upload, AV network traffic, staff workflows, and guest congregation access simultaneously โ with prioritization that keeps the stream from ever dropping.
We calculate your actual upstream requirement based on streaming bitrate, staff count, and congregation size โ no guessing.
QoS rules reserve dedicated upload bandwidth for your streaming encoder โ congregation phones can't crowd it out.
Staff, AV/streaming, and congregation networks on isolated VLANs โ each segment gets the right access and bandwidth.
Business-grade router installed with proper firewall rules โ not the combo box from your ISP.
Internet connection paired with church-wide WiFi deployment for complete coverage from narthex to fellowship hall.
Secondary internet connection via cellular failover keeps your stream running even during a primary ISP outage.
ISP coordination, router install, and network configuration โ completed in one day.
We review your streaming requirements, staff headcount, and typical congregation size to size the right internet plan.
We work with your ISP on account setup or plan upgrades โ or recommend alternatives if your current provider is underperforming.
Business router installed, VLANs configured, QoS rules applied, and all segments tested.
Live encoder test to confirm your streaming bandwidth holds under realistic Sunday load.
For 1080p livestreaming plus 20โ50 congregation devices, plan for 50 Mbps download / 25 Mbps upload minimum. For 4K streaming or larger congregations, 100+ Mbps upload is preferable. We calculate your specific requirement.
For a church with livestreaming, staff networks, and congregation WiFi, no. ISP-provided equipment doesn't support the VLAN segmentation and QoS rules needed to protect your stream. We install proper business routers.
We can configure a cellular failover router (using a 4G/5G SIM) as a backup internet connection. If your primary ISP fails, the network automatically switches to the cellular backup โ typically within 30โ60 seconds.
