How can I use two VERIZON ACTIONTEC routers with my home internet?

Hi,
I currently have one Verizon Actiontec router (newest model) that is connected as my primary router that handles all the internet stuff and MoCA for the TV's. It is connected via Coaxial cable into the wall on the first floor of my house. My house is 4 floors - Basement - 1st floor - 2nd floor- loft.
Now, I have a second identical Verizon Actiontec router that I want to put into good use but not sure how. I assume the only thing I can accomplish with it is to extend the wireless network, or make it faster, etc. I'm not exactly sure.
My house doesn't have any ethernet wall jacks, only coax. But there is a coax jack in every room on every floor.
I do not want to drill any holes into any walls, or run long cables that go up to other levels.
My experience with this tech is not too advanced (I know how to reset the router, go into the config page, change security, some IP stuff), but my knowledge is not technical enough to understand how to configure this manually without instructions/assistance/guidance.
I hope I have provided enough information, if there is anything else I am missing or you need to know please inform me.
Thank you in advance, and I appreciate any advice.

Solved!

You can use the extra router to provide ethernet and a Wireless Access Point (WAP) anyplace you have an active coax connection.

  • How can I use two different PC's with Lr5.5 to manage and process my photos stored on external disk, and exchange the analysis between these two computers?

    I operate on two computers and would like to be able download  Lr jobs done on my laptop,  to my stationary PC, also used to process other images, all stored on the same external disk.
    In other words I want to process may photos on two PCs and to to have access to all analyses from one or even better from both computers independently.
    Samek.

    You need to put your photos AND LR catalog file (.lrcat) on the external drive, and make sure the external drive has the same device name or drive letter on both computers.
    I have been using LR this way for several years and it works fine as long as you MAKE A BACKUP of the external disk somewhere, in case you lose or drop/damage the external drive which is easy to do.  Nightly, or sometimes more than once a day, I copy all changes from my working external disk to another similar-sized external disk.  I have lost a disk, once, and dropped/destroyed a disk, once, but recovery is as easy as using what used to be the backup disk as the primary one, and buying a new disk for the backup device.  It does take some hours to copy the 1TB of photos to the new backup disk, but once that is done, it usually only takes a few 10s of minutes or less to copy what is new or changed each night.

  • How Can i Use two Different Public IP Addresses no my DMZ with ASA Firewall.

    How To Using Two Different Public IP Address on My DMZ with ASA 5520
    Postado por jorge decimo decimo em 28/Jan/2013 5:51:28
    Hi everyone out there.
    can any one please help me regarding this situation that im looking for a solution
    My old range of public ip address are finished, i mean (the 41.x.x.0 range)
    So now i still need to have in my DMZ another two servers that will bring some new services.
    Remember that those two server, will need to be accessable both from inside and from outside users (Internet users) as well.
    So as i said, my old range of public ip address is finished and we asked the ISP to gives some additional public
    ip address to address the need of the two new servers on DMZ. and the ISP gave us the range of 197.216.1.24/29
    So my quation is, on reall time world (on the equipment) how can i Use two different public ip address on the same DMZ
    on Cisco ASA 5520 v8??
    How my configuration should look like?
    I was told about implementing static nat with Sub Interfaces on both Router and ASA interface
    Can someone please do give me a help with a practical config sample please. i can as well be reached at [email protected]
    attached is my network diagram for a better understanding
    I thank every body in advance

    Hi,
    So looking at your picture you have the original public IP address range configured on the OUTSIDE and its used for NAT for different servers behind the ASA firewall.
    Now you have gotten a new public IP address range from the ISP and want to get it into use.
    How do you want to use this IP address range? You want to configure the public IP addresses directly on the servers or NAT them at the ASA and have private IP addresses on the actual servers (like it seems to be for the current server)?
    To get the routing working naturally the only thing needed between your Router and Firewall would be to have a static route for the new public network range pointing towards your ASA OUTSIDE IP address. The routing between your Router and the ISP core could either be handled with Static Routing or Dynamic Routing.
    So you dont really need to change the interface configuration between the Router and ASA at all. You just need a Static route pointing the new public IP address towards the ASA outside IP address.
    Now when the routing is handled between the ISP - ISP/Your Router - Your Firewall, you can then consider how to use those IP addresses.
    Do you want to use the public IP addresses DIRECTLY on the HOSTS behind the firewall?This would require you to either configure a new physical interface with the new public IP address range OR create a new subinterface with the new public IP addresses range AND then configure the LAN devices correspondingly to the chosen method on the firewall
    Do you want to use the public IP addresses DIRECLTY on the ASA OUTSIDE as NAT IP addresses?This would require for you to only start configuring Static NAT for the new servers between the inside/dmz and outside interface of the ASA. The format would be no different from the previous NAT configuration other than for the different IP addresses ofcourse
    Of the above ways
    The first way is good because the actual hosts will have the public IP addresses. Therefore you wont run into problems with DNS when the LAN users are trying to access the server.
    The second way is the one requiring the least amount of configurations/changes on the ASA. In this case though you might run into problem with DNS (to which I refer above) as the server actually has a private IP address but the public DNS might reply to the LAN hosts with a public IP address and therefore connections from LAN could fail. This is because LAN users cant connect to the servers OUTSIDE NAT IP address (unless you NAT the server to public IP address towards LAN also)
    Hopefully the above was helpfull. Naturally ask more specific questions and I'll answer them. Hopefully I didnt miss something. But please ask more
    I'm currently at Cisco Live! 2013 London so in the "worst case" I might be able to answer on the weekend at earliest.

  • How can I use two accounts ?

    How can I use two accounts (mine and my wife's) to PhotoStream to my mac? I have to turn off photo stream for one or the other...can't I just leave two accounts logged on so that the photos from my iphone and hers both go to my mac?

    Photostreaming across machines requires to use the same Apple-ID on all of these machines or devices. Share all of iclouds account stuff or nothing at all . No way around as icloud is designed that way. Photostream is not designed as a sort of gallery to share with outsiders. It is for your personal entertainment .

  • How can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

    how can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

    No you do not need separate Apple ID's in order to use 3 devices with one Apple ID. I use 4 devices to Message and FaceTime and all use the same Apple ID. You do need to add additional email addresses for the other devices.
    Look at this very informative video for the instructions.

    I Purchased a iPhone 5s in USA. How can I use this phone in India with Vodafone.
    <Edited By Host>

    First, the iPhone would need to be unlocked. That would depend on where you bought it. Next, the North American phone would not work with all of the networks outside of the US. Also, the warranty for the device is only good in the US, so if you have a problem with the phone, you would need to bring it back to the US to an Apple Store. Where did you purchase the phone?

  • HT1515 How can I use Airport Express (1st generation) with OS X Mavricks?

    How can I use Airport Express (1st Generation) with OS X Mavericks?

    1st Generation AirPort Express will work fine with Mavericks.
    Are you sure that you have a 1st Gen Express?
    Check the model number on the side of the Express. 1st Gen is A1264.
    If you see A1084 or A1088, these are much older versions of the Express that were sold long before Apple began to use the Generation naming with "n" wireless devices in 2007.
    Mavericks will not support the A1084 or A1088. Use another Mac running Leopard, Snow Leopard, or a PC if you need to administer the older Express.
