ISPs face a major issue when addressing the need for meaningful insights into what is happening in their networks, which has pushed many of them to seek out expensive TR-069 solutions. These solutions are typically extremely complex to set up and go hand-in-hand with third party monthly or annual server hosting fees.

Cambium Networks’ latest addition to their cnPilot R-series (residential) – the cnPilot r195W dual-band Wi-Fi 5 router addresses this issue.  The cnPilot R-series is already widely used across the board by many ISPs, its popularity can be attributed to its ability to address network insight issues. This exciting new r195W addition uses the cutting edge cloud management solution, cnMaestro, which gives cost-conscious service providers full visibility and control of their network from a single pane of glass.

Service providers that leverage the power of cnMaestro to manage a broadband network can integrate the r195W into their wireless network. Through the cnMaestro web-first interface the r195W features zero-touch configuration, status alarms, dashboard KPIs, device health and inventory reports. cnMaestro management is offered at no charge for public or private cloud management.

ISPs can now ensure stable and seamless internet access for their clients via 802.11ac Wi-Fi and see exactly what is happening in an indoor home environment through visibility to client devices and traffic data, significantly cutting down any support costs and offering insight into daily utilisation and cost of operation.

With five Gigabit Ethernet ports and dual WLAN radios, the r195W easily connects all the devices in a home for an optimal experience when streaming movies, sharing social media or internet browsing – not to mention the needs of the ‘work from homers’.

The r195W has two 5dBi antennas to offer superb 2.4GHz and 5GHz coverage. With the increased processing power, the unit can now cater for even higher density applications and can provide up to four SSIDS tailored usage policies, such as residents, children, guests or staff.

The additional CPU power and more bandwidth mean that the r195W can support more services such as Router Limits, a full suite of cloud-based software that includes the most comprehensive set of parental controls and management features for ISPs.
