the calix cloud is the secret sauce that makes the wi-fi experience the best. too many features to list but the self heal is the best. it's constantly scanning the environment and will change the channels as necessary.
if you are using the router without the cloud you are missing over 50% of the features. I'd contact the calix rep for your region and request a demo unit. -sean On Fri, Nov 16, 2018 at 8:52 AM Ken Hohhof <af...@kwisp.com> wrote: > 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.
