Downtime isn’t just lost internet.
It’s lost revenue, lost trust, and lost credibility.

Internet downtime doesn’t just stop productivity: it stops payments, phones, meetings, and customers. That’s why we don’t just sell you a secondary circuit, we build a smarter connection strategy around how your business operates.

As your ISP and IT provider, Fidalia sees every angle of your infrastructure. We ensure that your failover works the way your applications, users, and security policies expect because we’re already managing the systems that depend on it.

One provider. One support line. No surprises when it counts.

Always-on Connectivity

Your business stays online, whether it’s storm season, ISP maintenance, or a fibre cut.

Fidalia doesn’t just deliver the circuits, we build the logic that controls them. Your backup internet isn’t a patch. It’s part of the plan.

Fidalia OnePort Backup Internet. Loss-less failover

How OnePort™ Stands Apart

Downtime is optional. See how Fidalia's OnePort™ Continuity compares to a typical “backup internet” setup.

Feature OnePort™ Continuity Standard “Backup Internet”
IP / Session Persistence Stays connected — no dropped calls or sessions Drops sessions and resets connections
Failover Test Cadence Monthly verified failover tests with uptime reports “Trust us” approach — rarely tested
Proof Artifact Continuity report & audit logs shared with clients No validation or reporting
Failover Speed <1 second automatic switch-over Minutes to hours, often manual
Setup & Management Plug-and-prove installation, managed by Fidalia Requires internal IT reconfiguration
Continuity Guarantee SLA-backed and verifiable uptime commitment No uptime verification or SLA enforcement

Every minute offline affects sales, service, and morale.

Most “backup” connections fail silently because they require manual reconfiguration or drop sessions when IPs change.

What happens when your internet goes down?

Most businesses lose the call, the video feed stutters, and work stops. A single connection failure can cost hours of productivity.

How does the system know the connection is down?

Fidalia’s Backup Internet router constantly checks every connection with tiny heartbeat packets. If one goes silent, it’s marked offline — automatically.

Will we lose active calls or downloads when that happens?

Nope. Your traffic is instantly rerouted over the healthy connection — mid-session. Your team won’t even notice the switch.

How does it manage traffic so seamlessly?

Each packet is routed in real-time across the best available path — not just one at a time. Your internet works smarter, not harder.

Is it safe to send data this way?

Yes. Everything can be encrypted with industry-standard AES-256. Even if you use LTE or public broadband, your data stays secure.

Do I need to replace my ISP or upgrade my lines?

Not at all. You can use any combination of DSL, fibre, cable, or LTE — even mix and match. We bond them together for better uptime.

Isn’t this just a second internet connection with failover?

Not quite. Traditional failover drops your calls. This doesn’t. SD-WAN failover happens instantly — at the packet level — with no downtime.

What Is Backup Internet and Why Most Failover Solutions Still Break Things - Fidalia Networks

What Is Backup Internet — and Why Most Failover Solutions Still Break Things

TL;DR: Backup internet is essential—but most solutions still break your apps, phones, and VPN when they fail over. Why? Because your public IP address changes. Fidalia’s static-IP continuity keeps your business online without breaking anything. You’ve Got Backup...

We spend a lot of time thinking about how to make your network more reliable.

Office Manager, Healthcare Clinic

Frequently Asked Questions about Fidalia's Backup Internet service

Do I need static IP failover if I don’t host anything?
If your business doesn’t rely on VPNs, VoIP, or external traffic to internal systems, dynamic IP failover may be all you need.
Will users notice when failover happens?

With UltraSwitch™, they won’t. Sub-second failover is seamless. With SmartSwitch™ or FastSwitch™, there may be a short interruption during the transition.

Can Fidalia provide the secondary connection too?
Yes. We can provision backup circuits over LTE, fibre, or copper—whichever is most resilient for your location.
Is this just SD-WAN?

Not quite. Our SmartSwitch™ and FastSwitch™ options are simpler and more cost-effective than full SD-WAN. UltraSwitch™ is built on a true SD-WAN core for enterprises that need it.
