I don’t think you can beat Calix for value.  They allow such insight and 
control that it will save you a bunch of time and money just dealing with the 
garden variety tech support router crap calls that you will wonder how you ever 
lived without them.

If you just get the gigacenter 844E, they start at $109 and go down based on 
purchase agreements. We get them for $100 each. I don't find that expensive at 
all. Their mesh solution is great and affordable too. 

By far better than any other managed solution available today.

  What routers are you using in the home for fiber deployments? Calix has some 
that are gold-plated and made with baby seal tears, or at least are priced as 
such. They promise marital harmony in the home, bright kids who score well on 
tests, etc. Is there a lest costly alternative? I don’t like their proprietary 
SFP’s on their GPON setup anyway, guaranteeing vendor lock in for overpriced 
SFP’s.

  Are you doing media converters and just normal routers (hopefully with remote 
management)?
