Linksys and Axiros Collaborate to Provide Whole Home Coverage and Deep Insight into WiFi Network
May 31, 2022 – LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM – The award-winning Linksys WiFi 6 mesh nodes can now be deployed by Internet Service Providers together with the Axiros AXESS TR-069 management platform and AXWIFI network analysis tools. Linksys, known for their WiFi and networking solutions, and Axiros a leading provider of TR-069 remote device management solutions have jointly announced the successful deployment of Axiros’ AXWIFI Quality of Experience (QoE) tools with their mutual customer, full-fibre broadband provider Airband, using the Linksys MX4200 WiFi 6 mesh hardware.
The Linksys Velop AX4200 Tri-Band Mesh WiFi 6 System (MX4200) is an intelligent mesh WiFi system, commonly used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) worldwide to provide super-fast fibre to premises, due to its ability to deliver high-speed WiFi across the whole home and thereby enabling the user to make use of greater bandwidth.
Notably, WiFi 6 enables higher speeds and 4x more capacity for more devices simultaneously connected than ever before. While Intelligent Mesh™ technology, combined with WiFi 6, is designed to deliver gigabit WiFi speeds to cover every corner of your home, including the backyard and outdoor smart home devices.
The additional benefit of the AXWIFI optimisation and management capabilities means that Airband can have insight into the connected WiFi devices and their signal strength and speed, to assist with troubleshooting should any WiFi issues occur.
How do Linksys Intelligent Mesh and Axiros management tools complement each other?
Linksys mesh solutions provide seamless, fast and reliable WiFi to every corner of the home, together with a customer-facing app for super-easy network configuration and management, and TR-069/TR-181 to allow remote management and monitoring by the ISP.
For the subscriber this gives excellent performance across the home, easy management using the mobile app, and the reassurance of a premium brand and recognised technology leader.
For the fibre ISP, it provides reassurance that the fast and seamless WiFi coverage across the home will allow the user to benefit from the huge bandwidth offered by the FTTH connection in every area of the home, not only in the same room as the ONT and WiFi router. The remote management and Quality of Experience tools available from Axiros provide real-time provisioning and visibility into your network. With the Axiros solutions, you can optimize the network performance of all devices in your network without directly accessing the endpoints.
Paul Brennan, Head of Networks at Airband said: “Having the additional insight into the WiFi network on top of standard TR-069 management makes it easy for us diagnose and resolve any WiFi issues which users may report to us, not only reducing frustration for users due to their problems being resolved more quickly, but also helping us keep our support costs down.”
Mark Torrans, Sales Director EMEA at Axiros said: “To deliver AXWIFI on top of our very successful AXESS and AXTRACT products was extremely exciting. Our aim at Axiros has always been to deliver a solution that encompasses advanced WiFi analytics on top of carrier grade device management solutions. Thank you for selecting us, Airband.”
Bukhtar Taggar, ISP Sales Director for Linksys said: “We’re proud of the collaboration with Axiros which has delivered this tool allowing our ISP customers to verify that they are getting the best out of our hardware and simplify their support engagements.”
