how to replace westell 6100 with westell 327w?

[bmwracer]

Hi all,

I am currently using a Westell 6100 and I just inherited a Westell 327W from my brother who switched over to FIOS.

Can I replace the 6100 with the 327W? And how do I go about doing that?

Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

If the 327w has newer firmware on it, you can just factory reset it and then connect it up. Once it is online, visit http://192.168.1.1/ and use admin/password respectively as the login information. Then, set a new password for the gateway.

Once done, visit http://192.168.1.1/verizon/redirect.htm and choose the disable button. Assuming the modem has been able to get a connection at this time, you should be online.
