As of 2025, over 62% of Irish households now own at least one smart device from voice assistants to security cameras, thermostats and connected lighting. Yet the reliability of these devices often depends not on the broadband speed at the door, but the Wi‑Fi signal strength inside the home. ISPs who can deliver stable, intelligent and managed in-home connectivity are well-positioned to win and retain customers. With fibre becoming ubiquitous, differentiation now happens in the home.

Traditional single-router setups struggle in modern homes, especially those with thick walls, multi-level layouts, or increasing device counts. Mesh Wi‑Fi systems solve this problem by creating a self-healing, node-based network that ensures consistent coverage in every room. This is a must for smart home users relying on real-time data and device responsiveness.

Euroroute works with a trusted portfolio of CPE manufacturers including FRITZ!, Kontron Innbox and Icotera to provide ISPs with mesh-ready, Wi‑Fi 6 and Wi‑Fi 7-capable devices tailored to a range of deployment needs. FRITZ! devices are recognised for their robust performance, integrated smart home features, and user-friendly interfaces, making them a strong choice for ISPs looking to deliver a premium end-user experience. Kontron Innbox offers high-performance, multi-gigabit CPE engineered for scalable, cost-effective coverage across both urban and rural networks. Icotera combines sleek Scandinavian design with energy efficiency and advanced remote diagnostics, ideal for ISPs prioritising sustainability and smart-home service integration.

To support ISPs entering the smart home space, Euroroute offers more than just hardware. Our zero-touch CPE deployment model ensures mesh-ready devices arrive pre-configured and branded, ready for self-install by end users.

Once deployed, devices are managed through our integration with AVSystem’s Cloud ACS platform. This gives ISPs full visibility into performance, diagnostics, and device status remotely. Cloud ACS reduces support overhead and enables proactive service improvements.

Whether launching mesh starter kits, full smart home bundles, or IoT-ready gateway services, Euroroute helps Irish ISPs operationalise and scale these offerings fast.

Bundled smart services are no longer niche. With rising expectations for convenience and control, customers are looking for ISPs to be reliable partners in home connectivity.

Revenue opportunities include:

– Mesh Wi‑Fi node rental or upsell tiers
– Smart lighting and home security integrations
– Energy monitoring and automation features
– Premium support tiers with managed device coverage

By offering these services in a single package, under a trusted ISP brand, providers gain deeper engagement and reduce switching risk.

Not every ISP needs to become a full smart home platform overnight. But forward-looking providers can take the following steps now:

– Audit existing CPE for mesh and IoT support
– Partner with Euroroute to integrate Wi‑Fi 6/ Wi‑Fi 7 mesh-ready devices
– Launch pilot bundles in fibre-first towns or high-churn segments
– Leverage Cloud ACS for real-time service assurance and in-home diagnostics

Starting small with the right technology and fulfilment model allows ISPs to grow smart home offerings without overextending resources.

Fibre is fast becoming a baseline in Ireland. But how well that bandwidth performs across the home and how effectively it supports modern smart devices is what customers care about most. By investing in mesh Wi‑Fi, automation-ready CPE and remote device intelligence, ISPs can evolve from utility providers into home experience leaders.
