Can I bridge a Verizon Fios router like the actiontec with another unit like Cisco router in the same LAN?   If so what do I need to do in setup?

below are some ways for you to do what you would like to do. just keep in mind that those are advanced set ups and not supported over the phone or by technician at verizon, so you can do them at your own risk type of thing, and the only support you'll really have is from online users.  If your a DIY (Do it yourself) kinda guy, then these should work,

You'll want to pay special attention to the "what are the trade off's" section.  If you have FiOS TV you may not be able to do some of the setups that you want.  there should be one in there that will work for you.
