Computer Repairs & IT Support in Rye
Rye's my home base. If you're a neighbour — or a visitor staying in one of the holiday homes down here — I'm just around the corner. I know the area, I know the quirks of the local NBN, and I don't need a GPS to find your street.
Helping Rye with all things tech
A mix of permanent residents and holiday home owners. Setting up holiday home Wi-Fi, helping retirees with their devices, and sorting out slow computers for working-from-home locals are my most common jobs in Rye.
Whatever you need, I come to you — no need to unplug your computer and drive anywhere. I'll park out the front, have a proper look, explain what's going on, and get it sorted. And if it's something I can't fix on the day, I'll tell you honestly and let you know what the options are.
Most Common IT Jobs in Rye
Here's what I help Rye residents with most often — but if your issue isn't listed, just ask.
Device Setup & Configuration
New computer, phone, tablet, or smart home device? I'll get it set up and ready to use from day one — accounts, software, connections, the lot.
Network & NBN Setup
Setting up routers, Wi-Fi, extenders, and home networks — including troubleshooting NBN drop-outs and slow speeds. A surprising number of problems are fixable in an afternoon.
Tech Education & Coaching
One-on-one sessions to help you feel more confident with your devices, apps, or software. At your pace, in plain English, no jargon.
Data Recovery
Recovering lost or inaccessible files from old, damaged, or corrupted hard drives. If the files matter to you, it's worth having a proper look before giving up.
Cloud Storage & Backup Solutions
Setting up secure, low-cost cloud storage and automated backup systems using Amazon S3 Glacier, Google Drive, iCloud, and others — so you never lose anything important again.
Software & Hardware Troubleshooting
Diagnosing and fixing slow, crashing, or misbehaving computers. Whether it's a hardware issue or a software conflict, I'll track it down and sort it out.
Virus & Malware Removal
Cleaning infected devices and setting up ongoing protection so it doesn't happen again. No pop-ups, no scare tactics — just a clean, safe device.
Printer & Peripheral Setup
Getting printers, scanners, and other devices talking to your computer properly. No more 'why won't it just work' moments.

A bit about me
I'm Brendan. I live in Rye, I'm a real person (not a franchise or call centre), and I genuinely enjoy helping people with their tech. I don't use jargon, I don't make you feel silly for asking questions, and I won't try to sell you things you don't need. If I can't help, I'll tell you honestly and point you in the right direction.
If you've been burned by an IT person before, I get it. A lot of my customers have. What I promise is simple: I'll turn up when I say I will, do what I say I'll do, and charge a fair price for it.
