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

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. On Thursday, April 28, 2016, Sterling Jacobson <sterl...@avative.net> wrote: 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).

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. -Sean On Wednesday, April 27, 2016, Gino Villarini <javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','ginovi...@gmail.com');> wrote: We are looking for a Home Gateway / Router that supports 802.11AC wifi and gigabit speeds on the LAN. I have read that Calix is a good option, what is the cost? Experience with them or others?
