Today and the last few days, I've been unable to upload and email files. I've tried Google Chrome and IE and 3 different email platforms. Everytime I initiate an upload, it times out and I get an error. My file is only 340 KB! The internet in general has also been running very slow. I have FIOS. I've tried restarting the router twice, updating windows, and restarting my computer. Nothing seems to help. Please assist!

I know it's been asked many times, I've searched and searched through Google and forums but a lot of the information seems old. After I follow the below instructions, I'm still unable to use my router. It's not pulling an IP address.

Trying to use my Netgear Nighthawk as my own router. I currently subscribe to all 3 Verizon services, TV, phone, and Internet. I currently have to gigabit service for Internet and I have the G1100 router/gateway.

Current set up:

ONT-->G1100 ethernet wan
G1100 lan port-->Netgear wan port
Netgear lan port-->switch

Steps Taken:
Hardwired to the router (Connected via Ethernet) Logon to your G1100 - (»myfiosgateway.com or »192.168.1.1)

Go to 'Wireless' Under 'Basic Wireless Settings' turn off both 2.4 GHz & 5 Ghz. Click 'Apply' at the bottom of the page.

Under 'Advanced Wireless Settings' click on 2.4 GHz SSID Broadcast and Turn that off then click 5.0 GHz SSID Broadcast and turn that off as well.

Now that the wireless access is shut off, Click on 'Firewall' at the prompt click 'Yes' Now under General for IPv4 Settings & IPv6 Settings set BOTH to 'Minimum Security' and click Apply at the bottom.

Next click 'My Network' now Click 'Network Connections' now click 'Advanced >>' Now click '5.0GHz Wireless Access Point 1' and then click Disable, once that's finished hit Apply

Once you're back at Network Connections click 'Advanced >>' and click 2.4GHz Wireless Access Point 1 then Disable that as well, and hit Apply.

Once both Wireless APs are Disabled, Click 'Broadband Connection (Ethernet/Coax)' Then hit 'Settings' at the bottom, Uncheck the box beside 'Internet Connection Firewall'

Now click 'Release' and then quickly click Apply, then click Apply once again.

Then beside 'Internet Protocol' change it from 'Obtain IP Address Automatically' to 'No IP Address'

Now Click on 'Network (Home/Office)' and then hit Settings.

Once in the Settings, under General change the IP Address from "192.168.1.1" to "192.168.1.2" This way there's no conflicts from both routers trying to use same IP... Now under the Bridge section; Check the box beside 'Broadband Connection Ethernet/Coax)' and uncheck the boxes by both Wireless APs.
then change 'IP Address Distribution' from DHCP Server to Disabled.

Once you click apply, the G1100 will be put into Bridged Mode and will
no longer assign IP addresses, So don't worry if everything stops working once you
apply the settings.

Hit Apply and then take an Ethernet Cable and plug one end into any of the 4 Ports
on the G1100 except the WAN Port, then plug the other end into the WAN/Internet
Port of your Router.

Next plug your PC into your router and reboot both routers.
Once they have rebooted, logon to your router and make sure it's IP Address range is 192.168.1.0...

Now check and see if Verizon assigned your new router your Public IP Address (You might need to click Renew in your new routers settings) If it has assigned an IP to your Router, you are good to go.

If you have Verizon TV as well, You'll need to take another Ethernet Cable and run it from one of the Ports on your Router to one of the 3 Remaining ports on the G1100, that way your Router will assign IPs to your STBs and they can access the net.

Is there any advantage to replacing the G1100 router with an upper end third party router?  I have 1GB service about 50 devices connected including wifi thermostants, Google homes and Amazon echos, etc.  I can stream 4K content without problems.  I was wondering why people replace the FiOS router with one something like a Nighthawk.

I am having chronic audio issues when trying to watch Amazon Prime streaming video. When playing a video using the Prime app, there are intermittent audio cut-outs. This usually happens at the beginning of a program, cutting out for a second or two every minute or so (approximately). Sometimes the problem will resolve itself after a few minutes, but usually it does not. I have noticed this problem intermittently in the past, but it seems to be chronic now.

I am using a Panasonic Viera TC-50AS530U TV (June 2014), connected to Verizon FiOS via 5GB wireless. I have rebooted the FiOS router. The FiOS WiFi signal is strong (5 bars), and upload/download speeds are >150Mbps (tested using iPhone speedtest app, connected to the same 5GB WiFi SSID). This appears to be a streaming-only issue: Regular FiOS TV video (including on-demand selections) from the set top box does NOT have the audio issue.

I have ensured that the TV firmware is the latest version available, and have selected PCM (instead of Auto) for the audio mode for Prime viewing, but this seems to make no difference in the audio drop-out issue.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I have two IPhones, one Android tablet, and a Kindle book reader.  The latter two devices do not anymore connect tomy Wi-Fi.   The Android tablet says that the wi-fi connection is "saved, secured with WPA2," and then says there is an "authentication problem."  The Kindle does not return an error message.   I've rebooted the router, and the two devices, I've "forgotten" the Wi-Fi and re entered the info, and I've pressed the various "Wi-Fi Protected Setup Buttons."  The two devices can connect to Wi-Fi from other sources.   I haven't changed the router password nor the Wi-Fi passwords.  

Hello friends. I have 50/50 data only FIOS on a coax infrastructure in my condo. I am using a Quantum Gateway FIOS router as my primary (on coax of course).  My condo is essentially 4 stories tall due to some creative construction. As you can imagine, this makes network signal a nightmare.  

As such, I would like to extend my network on the lower levels by sind an ethernet router right at the ONT (which is in my garage on level 1). 

I took off the panel for the ONT and observed an unused ethernet cable labeled "Feed 2" and one labeled "Security."  There is also an unused coax labeled "Feed."

My question is this: is it possible for me to extend my network by connecting an ethernet router to "Feed 2" or alternately, connection an Actiontec coax router to "Feed"?

I have included photos of my ONT setup below:

ONT showing coax "Feed"

ONT showing ethernet "Feed 2" and "Security"

Not sure if this is helpful but looks important

I’ve been a loyal Verizon customer for years and would like be extended the same plan new customers are being offered. 

How do we get this done?

Hello.

About 2 weeks ago I moved to new home.

I noticed that in my home installed fios box. Screenshot below.

After this I called to Frontier-Fios internet company and ask your guys about internet plans and the ability to install the internert.

They told me that my order is approved and Installation tech will be on my home on 1-t June. After this I received email confirmation.

On 05/31/18 I called to Frontier for confirming installation date, they told me that I have another order number and another installation date 12-june. WHAT ? **bleep**.

Guys, just I need Internet, last owner used your internet, communication stuff in the garage is active. This is very easy to create new account and apply this account to existing box, for what need extra installation ?

Somebody has responsibility, because your service very bad, 2-3 weeks for installing internet from first request and I still doesn't have it.

Who can help me ???
