Our Story
4in6.net LLC was founded during the pandemic, born out of a conversation with a colleague who suggested turning years of professional expertise into a freelance venture. With decades of hands-on experience deploying and managing Fortinet next-generation firewalls, I recognized a growing need: businesses that wanted top-tier network security but didn’t have the time or budget to hire full-time specialists. That’s where we come in.
Since 2021, we’ve been proud to offer operational firewall support to companies seeking expert help within their means. From complex conversions and deployments to troubleshooting and maintenance, we’ve built a reputation for delivering results that align with our clients' goals and challenges.

Ashworth Payne
As a veteran Fortinet engineer, I’ve worked with major organizations, including PNC Bank, the EPA, and Spectrum. My expertise spans everything from multi-site global deployments to custom configurations for small businesses. I love the variety and problem-solving that comes with short-term projects. At 4in6.net LLC, I focus on tailoring firewall solutions to each client’s unique needs, always striving to be an extension of their team.
Lisa Meyer
My wife, Lisa, is not only my best friend but also the cornerstone of our business operations. With 20 years of managerial experience in the food and entertainment industry, she’s no stranger to long hours and hard work. As our administrative assistant—our "office ninja"—Lisa ensures that everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. She’s a joy to work with and is deeply mindful of creating an exceptional customer experience, a value we both hold dear. What Sets Us Apart At 4in6.net LLC, we know our clients often wish they had internal staff managing their firewall needs. That’s why we strive to adapt to each company’s culture, becoming a seamless part of their team. We respect the sacrifices businesses make to achieve their goals and do our utmost to help them succeed without compromising quality or security.
Whether you need a one-time project completed or ongoing support, we’re here to help you navigate the complex world of network security with expertise, empathy, and a personal touch.
