Doc Summary
Avative provides a high‑performance, fully managed WiFi experience for your home
using Calix GigaSpire® systems. Every Avative internet plan includes an Avative
managed router, and for larger homes or challenging layouts, we may also install
mesh extenders for whole‑home coverage.
Manage your network with the Avative WiFi app, available for
Apple iOS
and
Android.
Note: Customers may choose to Bring Your Own Router (BYOR) and connect
it to the fiber ONT. Avative‑managed WiFi includes enhanced support, diagnostics,
and optimization through the Avative WiFi app.

Mesh Extenders #
Mesh extenders expand coverage to hard‑to‑reach areas. For maximum performance,
we recommend wired Ethernet backhaul when your home has in‑wall
Ethernet. If wiring isn’t available, we can deploy
wireless backhaul instead.
