I would love to see "official" answers. I'm looking at routers and managed WiFi for an FTTH build passing around 10,000 households. I haven't made any commitments yet, so I'd be willing to talk about Calix. On 11/19/2018 6:13 PM, [email protected] wrote: Actually this is the beginning.

For those of you who’ve successfully deployed Calix: I’ve been wanting to do something with the 844E and 804 since WISPAmerica 2.5 years ago, but I feel like I’m at the starting line of a marathon with my feet stuck in buckets full of concrete. Calix has tons of documentation, and after reading it, I feel about 1% smarter. I don’t know what the end user or a tech sees as an interface for analytics and troubleshooting and tweaking settings. I don’t know if you can do a standalone implementation with just the Calix Cloud and some Gigacenters and Mesh units, I get the impression you need to mess with APIs and tie into all sorts of operations systems that we don’t have. I’m not even clear on whether we need to set up some kind of on-network TR-069 server, or if that’s all a cloud service hosted by Calix. Is the Calix stuff relatively straightforward to use, on a par with Cambium cnPilot and cnMaestro Cloud? And maybe Calix documentation is just very confusing or I’m being stupid? Or are these things pretty complicated to incorporate into a WISP network and get all the advantages of the devices and cloud management? I’m trying to decide whether to keep struggling and get more help from Calix, or give up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
