      All routers do have this default Admin that the home owners can use to do 
some settings.  The Support account is the one that we use that gives you all 
the settings, and voip settings, and remote management.

      I think that is the portal.  The customer uses the QR code on the router.

      Is that via the home gateway itself or via a centralized system (like 
TR69 portal) etc?

      The customers do have the ability to set up curfews, usage rules, time of 
day usage, rules for particular devices etc.

      Sean, do they have access to the calix themselves?

      People don't really call that much once they have a calix.  UPnP opens 
most ports that users would need unless they are running their own servers 
(which we don't allow anyway) but if they have their own sever surely they are 
technical enough to figure out port forwarding etc.

        That sounds interesting.



        I kind of like the idea of a rented supported system.



        But I don’t like the idea of people calling in every time their 
wireless doesn’t reach their attic, or to open up ports to their gaming thingy.



        So my real question is this, at $7 a month, does it make enough money 
to hire someone full time to answer the phones on these and be the go-to guy 
for every single problem on their internal network?



        If not, then I’m fine staying completely away from this (and hiring 
people to man the phone calls).

        It is a addon straight from calix.  Ask your sales rep.

          If you use consumer connect the are even cheaper.  Best routers i 
have ever sold.  We are starting to use their gigapoints with a 844E and sell a 
$7 managed service.  We have about a 90% take rate.  I also get them with 5 
year warrantys so i know i will never loose money on them. They also have an 
app for the home owner that we are starting to use.

          Nice thing is we can totally get in and troubleshoot anything.

          And the parents can control which devices and which services they 
allow their kids to use.

          Best router ever!  Highly recommend them. 



          We sell it as a managed wifi service instead of selling just the 
router.  Customer pays $99 "setup fee" and $12/mo.  Clients love them and so do 
our support staff.

            We are looking for a Home Gateway / Router that supports 802.11AC

            I have read that Calix is a good option, what is the cost? 
Experience with them or others?
