Installation Variables

Before installing the GigaCenter, consider what additional services may be implement-

ed. Various Ethernet and telephone ports are available on the back of the unit which

may or may not be used. Prior to determining the unit’s ﬁnal location, you need to

account for the following variables:

• Where will the telephone lines be routed?

• Where will the Ethernet cables be routed?

• What type of building material is used in the home? Make sure you have the

appropriate drills, drill bits and fasteners for routing subscriber services and/or

power cables as they pass through walls and the like.

Tabletop Mounting

Calix GigaCenters can be mounted on a tabletop in a “tower” conﬁguration using the

tabletop stand shipped with the product.

Assemble the tabletop stand and the GigaCenter as shown in the following diagram.

Wireless Access Point (WAP)

The 844E GigaCenter supports services when connected behind another router or

gateway. To support this feature, the GigaCenter is conﬁgured as a Layer-2 Bridged

Wireless Access Point (WAP). WAP mode is useful for:

• Maintaining an existing router or service (DSL or cable) while improving the

wireless service with the 844E GigaCenter

• Expanding wireless coverage with additional access points while only hav-

ing to maintain a single router

To conﬁgure WAP mode, navigate to the GigaCenter’s EWI Quick Start menu. Once

WAP mode is enabled, the GigaCenter is conﬁgured as a bridged device with all Eth-

ernet LAN and Wi-Fi network services residing behind the router. Since the router is

now performing Network Access Translation (NAT), the IP address it receives is a local

IP address (issued by the router that the 844E is connected to).

Note: Once connected to the router IP address, Home Gateway settings will no

longer be accessible via the EWI. If changes to the Home Gateway settings

are required, disconnect the 844E GigaCenter Ethernet WAN cable from the

router, restoring access to the EWI.

To connect the 844E GigaCenter behind another router or gateway and enable Lay-

er-2 Bridged WAP mode, complete the following steps:

1. With the 844E GigaCenter connected to the upstream legacy router using an

Ethernet LAN port or via Wi-Fi, open a browser and enter the following URL into

the address bar and then press enter:

http://192.168.1.1

2. At the login prompt, enter the User Name and Password provided on the 844E

label.

3. Using the GigaCenter’s EWI, navigate to Quick Start > Conﬁgure Wireless

Network.

Note: Calix recommends changing the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz SSID settings and any

customized security settings prior to enabling WAP mode.

4. In the Wireless Access Point (bridged mode) section, click the Wireless Access

Point radio button to Enable and then click Apply. The GigaCenter reboots and

is now running in WAP mode.

5. Connect one end of a CAT5 or CAT6 Ethernet cable to any router Ethernet LAN

ports (RJ-45). Connect the other end to the 844E GigaCenter white Ethernet

WAN (Eth-WAN) port (RJ-45).

Wireless Access Point Home Gateway Settings

As mentioned previously, when the 844E is conﬁgured as a Wireless Access Point

(WAP), the web based Home Gateway settings are no longer accessible using the IP

address http://192.168.1.1. When in WAP mode, it may be necessary to change the

SSID network name, security passwords or login settings to match the upstream rout-

er. There are two options available to regain access to the Home Gateway settings.

1. Access the web base setup page of the router and lookup the IP address as-

signed to the 844E GigaCenter. Connect your PC to an Ethernet LAN port of the

router, open a browser and enter that IP address as a URL into the address bar.

2. Disconnect the 844E GigaCenter Ethernet WAN cable from the router, connect

your PC to an Ethernet LAN port of the GigaCenter and enter the following URL

into the address bar: http://192.168.1.1. Press Enter.

Q: My Wi-Fi signal strength is lower than I expected?

A: A wireless signal degrades with distance and obstructions. Common signal impair-

ments include walls, ceilings, metal, concrete, cinder blocks, ﬂuorescent lights,

microwaves, furniture, etc. While the GigaCenter has been optimized to provide

wireless coverage for most applications, there may be dependencies based on

the location where the device is installed. Please contact your service provider for

troubleshooting assistance.

Q: What mounting options are available for installing the 844E GigaCenter?

A: The 844E should be installed using the tabletop stand or wall mount bracket to

ensure best Wi-Fi performance and proper ﬁber optic cable management. Ensure

the Ethernet cable can be properly routed to the device without excessive bends or

pinching of the cable.

Q: What do I do if I cannot log on to the GigaCenter gateway?

A: Contact your service provider.

Q: Who do I contact for service and support?

A: Contact your service provider.

Q: I conﬁgured the 844E for WAP mode and now cannot access the Embedded Web

Interface or Home Gateway settings.

A: Disconnect the Ethernet WAN cable between the router and the 844E running in

WAP mode. Once disconnected, the IP address http://192.168.1.1 can again be

accessed using the Ethernet LAN port.

Q: My wireless network name (SSID name) and security password of my 844E con-

ﬁgured for WAP mode are different than the settings in my wireless gateway. Can I

change these to be the same?

A: Follow the online Quick Start menu Conﬁgure Wireless Network and change the

Network Name and WPA/WPA2 Password to be the same as the wireless gateway.

Note that changes will apply to both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios. To change

each radio separate, use the Wireless menu SSID Setup and Security tabs.

Q: If the 844E GigaCenter is running in WAP mode, can the device be reset back to

normal gateway mode?

A: From the online Quick Start menu, navigate to Conﬁgure Wireless Network. In the

Wireless Access Point (bridged mode) section, click the Wireless Access Point ra-

dio button to Disabled and click Apply. The 844E will reboot and return to gateway

mode.

Q: If the 844E GigaCenter is in WAP mode can the device be reset to factory set-

tings?

A: Press the RESET button on the back of the unit for at least 5 seconds, or access

the “Restore Defaults” reset button located in the “Utilities” section of the Embed-

ded Web Interface. The 844E reboots and returns to the default gateway mode.
