I have a 4 year old revision D Actiontec MI42WR router. I recently obtained a newer 'I' revision MI42WR router that I want to use in place of my older 'D' unit. I got this from a guy down the street... not an official version change.
My existing router is a MOCA ( coax ) configured, DHCP for it's 'Broadband' connection config.
I released the broadband assigned IP and turned off my old router. Attached my new router let it get a new Broadband connection DHCP assigned address.
So... my new 'I' revision FIOS router appears to work. I can do internet on my pc. I can 'watch' standard tv on my DVR. The
guided appears to work.
Now.. the issue I have is VOD does not work on my DVRs. I press the VOD button on the remote and I get an error about
not being able to connect to the VOD server. I reboot my DVR and it does not fix the problem.
I did NOT copy any setting from my old 'D' router to my new 'I' router... are there per-router configs that need to be made / copied
to get VOD working through a new/different router?
I do see a lot of ip port forwarding things on my old router that look like they might be DVR / STB related. Do I need to copy
those too... or will VOD just magically start working at some point in the future?
