Guys verizon has finally announced that my building is wired for FIOS.

I'm running a web server at home currently on CableVision.... I would like to switch to FIOS ASAP.

My questions on Verizon FIOS service is inbound port 80 open or not? Support give me conflicting info.

They say if I order residential service no port 80 for me... Only if I order business service with static only than port 80 will be open...

I don't need static... And I sure not looking to pay for business service for 1 pesky web site...

Can advise me:  I'm in Northern New Jersey, Union City 07087. Does port 80 open or not?

The above.poster is correct but just an fyi, we haven't heard of anyone being blocked on port 80 for years. Most likely it will be open.

The conflicting info is because in some area's port 80 is blocked and in some it is not. In either case, running a web server is prohibited on residential services per the TOS Verizon supplies.

You would need a business acct in order to run a web server. You may not need the static but Verizon does have business dynamic services. It is more $$$$ than residential however. Business internet starts at $65 and goes up from there.
