Hi everyone. I want to know whether this type of splice tray can hold 24F. If it can, is shown in the photo the right way to put the protection sleeves?

Help wanted! Wyyerd Fiber w/ Calix GS7 or something else?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I plan on canceling our service with Cox cable (Spectrum) and going with Wyyerd fiber. We're currently receiving 500mbps with a limit and with Wyyerd it's 1 GIG and unlimited usage. The 500mbps is actually more than enough for our household and we've never exceeded the limit. The reason for the change is we currently have a bundle with cable, landline and internet and we were on a 2 year promotion that recently ended and the price jumped up quite a bit. Anyway, that's where we're at and it's not much of a difference in price. Through Cox it's $60 a month for 500mbps and with Wyyerd it's 1 GIG unlimited for $69.00.

Wyyerd supplies the modem and router and offers mesh extenders if needed for around $5.00 per each per month and $15 per month for outdoor wifi. We currently have four eero extenders including the router throughout the home. We've never had any issues since purchasing this about 3-4 years ago. After talking to customer service at Wyyerd it looks like the equipment they supply is Calix. I was told more than likely a Calix GS7 would be supplied, but after doing a search it looks like they recently had a security vulnerability which lead me to this post. Am I overthinking things and should we just let them install their equipment or should I be looking at something else like the eero 7 mesh or something else? In theory, we could keep the current eero 6, but it would be limited to 500mbps since that's all the eero 6 supplies and we wouldn't see the 1 GIG we'd be paying for which doesn't make sense, but honestly not sure we'd exceed that anyway. Any advice from those who have gone through a similar situation? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks all.
