Smart Home

What kind of smart home devices can Leios Consulting integrate?

We work with a wide range of smart home technologies including water leak detection systems, energy monitoring devices, smart lighting, thermostats, door locks, cameras, and more. We specialize in Home Assistant compatible devices and recommend devices that fit your specific needs and budget.

Is my smart home system secure?

Security is a priority. We implement best practices including strong network encryption (WPA3 or WPA2), network segmentation to isolate IoT devices, firewall configuration, regular firmware updates, and password protection. Unlike cloud-dependent systems, our local-first approach keeps your data private.

Do I need monthly subscriptions for smart home features?

No! We're the only Oklahoma provider focused on providing an open-source platform with no monthly subscription fees or cloud accounts needed—ever. Your smart home runs locally, giving you complete control and privacy.

Can you add smart home features to my existing home?

Absolutely. We specialize in both new construction and retrofit installations. We'll assess your current setup, including your WiFi network, and recommend the best approach for integrating smart devices into your existing home.

What smart home platform do you recommend?

We specialize in Home Assistant, an open-source platform that integrates with thousands of devices and doesn't require cloud subscriptions. It offers local control, complete privacy, and extensive customization options.

Networking

How do you eliminate WiFi dead zones in my home?

We start with a thorough assessment of your home's layout and construction materials. Then we strategically place enterprise-grade access points (typically Unifi) and configure them for optimal coverage with seamless roaming between zones. The result is consistent, fast WiFi throughout your entire home.

What is network segmentation and why does it matter?

Network segmentation separates your IoT devices (smart home gadgets) from your main network. This improves security by preventing compromised smart devices from accessing your computers and personal data. It also improves performance by reducing network congestion.

What networking equipment does Leios Consulting use?

We primarily use Unifi networking solutions from Ubiquiti, which offer enterprise-grade reliability and features at reasonable prices. We also work with Synology NAS for storage, NUC servers for local computing, and other enterprise-grade equipment based on your needs.

Drone Services

Are you licensed to fly drones commercially in Oklahoma?

Yes. We are FAA Part 107 certified, which is required for all commercial drone operations in the United States. This ensures we follow federal regulations for safe and legal drone flights.

What types of properties can you photograph with drones?

We provide professional drone videography for residential properties, commercial buildings, facilities, events, and more. Our services include aerial tours, marketing videos, MLS-ready content, facility documentation, and aerial inspections for property assessment.

What equipment do you use for drone videography?

We use DJI Mavic Air 2s and DJI Avata 2 drones, capable of capturing stunning 4K video and high-resolution photos. For post-production, we use Adobe Lightroom, DaVinci Resolve Studio, and Final Cut Pro to deliver professional results.

Yuvi Rana is a licensed Realtor (License #212331) partnered with Copper Creek Real Estate. Services include property representation for buyers and sellers, smart home readiness assessments, data-driven property insights, and professional real estate photography and videography.

What makes your real estate approach different?

As a 'Technical Realtor,' we combine traditional real estate expertise with technology knowledge. Buyers receive complimentary smart home readiness assessments on any property. Sellers benefit from professional drone and photo services, plus strategies to highlight tech features that add value.

Is smart home consultation included when buying a home?

Yes! Smart home scoping and analysis is included as a standard benefit when working with us—not an upsell. We help you understand the tech potential of homes you're considering, including network infrastructure, smart device compatibility, and automation possibilities.
