Is BEFW11S4 router compatible with FIOS?

My daughter has Verizon FIOS as her ISP. Can the BEFW11S4 be used in that environment? Is there any special configuration settings I need to change when used in that environment?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I think it may work because because BEFW11S4 supports PPPoE connection.
I believe though even with Fios you can use your old router with the system, they just give you a free one when you sign up.

Is the Linksys E4200 Dual Band Router compatible with DHCP and VPN?
Thanks,

Linksys/Cisco E4200 are compatible with DHCP. Second, these Wireless-N routers are only capable of enabling the VPN traffic to pass through the device. You will need a VPN router and software to create the actual network to connect with your VPN client.

Actiontec M1424WR Router compatible with the new VMS1100 Cable Box

Hello all,
Been trying to upgrade to the new Quantum Fios. To begin Verizon never sent me a upgraded router that was compatible with the VMS1100 set top box.
They shipped me the Actiontec M1424WR Router looks like my old router but with a red front piece. I'm getting 75/75 service as well.
This is an older router still. In fact its not even in production anymore. My concern is that it's not going to work with the new VMS1100. Hate to go through the process of setting it up and it doesn't work.
Can anyone help and clarify if this older router will still work with the VMS1100 set top box?
Thanks!

VMS will work with the Actiontec Rev I or the Fios Quantum Gateway router.

Is Linksys Wireless-G WRT54G v5 Router compatible with Windows Vista?

Hello all, I'm new to these forums, just signed up tonight because I am purchasing a new Desktop PC in a week or so. I just would like to ask and make sure before I purchase if my router is compatible.
On my new PC it's going to have Windows Vista Home Premium 32 or 64 bit I haven't decided yet.

Is medialink router compatible with mac

Is my e2500 router compatible with mavericks?

I am trying to reset my linksys e2500 wireless router and when i run the disc it tells me that I am not up to date. Is this router not compatible with Mavericks??

Am using Mac Pro 5,1.
The drop outs to internet happen when connected to a DSL modem via my Asante router. All connections are ethernet; not using wireless.
When I connect directly via ethernet to my Qwest DSL modem, and bypas the router, no problem.
Drop outs while Safari is open, or Google Chrome is open, can occur anytime. If Google Chrome and Safari are both open at the same time, internet dropout occurs for both simultaneously. They occur after waking from sleep also.
I can get back internet connectivity in both Chrome and Safari by unplugging the DC power to the Asante router for 5 seconds, and plugging the power back in; internet connectivity resumes instantly in both Chrome and Safari.
So the problem is not isolated to Safari.
The problem seems isolated to my Mavericks install completed yesterday because:
This same Mac Pro running Win 8.1 from a separate SSD and separate boot to Win 8.1 through the router does not have the problem.
My tenant downstairs running Win 7 through the router does not have any connection problems.
There were no internet drop outs when connected to DSL modem via this same router when I ran Mountain Lion.
Sparky, can you describe a "step-by-step" on how you reset your IP address, etc?
Is this a "handshaking problem" between Mavericks and my router?
Do others have suggestions for solution paths to try?
Will report back right away.
Thank you.

Router compatible with windows 8?

I have windows 8. Is the Netgear N300 Wireless Router (model WNR2000) compatible with windows 8?

A router doesn't care(for the most part) what OS you're running.

Netgear G router compatible with new iMac 27" N?

I'm having trouble getting my bright shining new custom-built 27" iMac to connect to my Netgear G router. I thought the N built into the new iMacs was backward compatible: http://www.apple.com/wifi/80211/
What say you networking gurus?

It should work fine. It would help to know more details. For example, is the network not showing up under the AirPort icon in the menu bar? Is it showing up and selectable, but not accepting the passcode? Does it appear to connect to the network, but Internet access is not working? Those are completely different issues.
As a method of trouble-shooting, I would try to isolate the cause better.
If possible, try connecting it to the router using an Ethernet cable first, just to confirm the Internet connection is working properly. If that is too difficult due to the relative locations of the Mac and router, you can skip it. But if you find that it still does not work, the cause is more than just the wireless not working.
Try disabling the security on the router temporarily. See if you can now connect. If it does not work, there is general problem with the wireless networking. If it works with no security, then you know the cause is related somehow to the security protocol being used. You can focus trouble-shooting in that area.

Is the Time Capsule wi-fi router compatible with the Nest thermostat? I've read where there are issues with the Nest and Airport Extreme (AE)? Is AE used in the Time Capsule?

I've read where there are issues with the Nest and Airport Extreme (AE)? Is AE used in the Time Capsule?
If so, i already have a wi-fi router, so can the Time Capsule simply be used for wireless backup instead of as a router if there is conflict?

A TC is fundamentally a AE with a sata chip included to drive the hard disk. Some slightly different bios to include disk functions, although most of those are also on the AE. So as a router it is 99.999% identical.
And yes, if you have another router you can easily bridge the TC and use wireless for backups and internet connection. Once you no longer route through the TC the issues with most NAT problems including port forwarding should disappear.. mostly this is due to all apple routers using NAT-PMP instead of upnp which is the near universal standard for opening ports.. without upnp apple keep their routers more exclusive.

Call Waiting - Caller ID with FiOS

When I switched from wire service to FiOS, I lost the Call Waiting Caller ID function and was told by tech support at the time that all was OK with the account and with the switching circuit, but was a problem with my Verizon supplied Caller ID box (Remember this worked with the wire service). I purchased a new phone (GE model 25881 that has Call Waiting Caller ID function) but still no Call Waiting ID. I do get the beeps. Note: Caller ID works fine when I am not on the line. When contacting tech support, I was told that the some phones were not compatible with FiOS Call Waiting ID, but could not supply me with a list of phones that work or phones that are known not to work. Can anyone give me some phone models that are known to work? I do not want to keep purchasing phones only to have some tech tell me that it is not compatible?
Also, the tech told me that another customer had the same problem and had tried three phones without any success. To me, being an electrical engineer, this sounds like a service provider problem and not a phone problem. Thoughts?

When I switched from Comcast to Verizon, I lost the call waiting ID. Caller ID works imtermittently. I switched to verizon about a month ago and they are still not able to resolve the issue. Now they are saying that telephone service is not included in the 30 day trial period if sign up for FIOS triple play. If I I switch the service, they will charge me the early termination fee. The service representative who came to check said that verizon is aware of such problem in Pennsylvania areas. I think it is time for consumers to come to come together and think or organize filing class action law suit against verizon.

What WiFi extender is compatible with the MI424WR router?

My house is larger than the MI424WR router can service with wireless connectivity and I'm looking at adding a wifi extender, but want to be sure it will work with the Actiontec MI424WR router I have with FIOS. I'm thinking of the Linksys RE1000. Anybody know if that (or any other extender) would be compatible?
Thanks.

You're not adding a "second line," you're just extending your LAN.
The key point to understand is that the primary router provides LAN access on three different media; wired Ethernet, WiFi and over the coax (using a system called MoCA). Normally, the only coax clients on the LAN are set-top boxes. However, the coax LAN is available to anything that plugs into coax. Thus, all you need is a device that converts the coax LAN to something more useful, like Ethernet or WiFi. This is called a "bridge," and is a different function than a router.
There are several devices that can be used to bridge coax MoCA to Ethernet and/or Wifi. Actiontec routers can be run in bridge mode, and are suggested by many folks on these boards.
Here's a link that explains how to do it:

Is Fios compatible with Windows 7 64-Bit?

I would like to know if Verizon FIOS is compatible with windows 7 64-bit because I've seen some topics on the internet where there are problems with it. If you need more info about the computer, please let me know, but keep in mind that my computer has pretty decent specs. (corei7 processor, Gigs of ram, ATI Radeon 5770, etc )
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

To expand on the first reply, I do have FiOS TV and internet, and there is absolutely no need to install any Verizon software on your computer to use the service. I do not currently have any installed on my Windows 7 64-bit system that I am typing this on right now, have been using this laptop since Oct 22, 2009 with Windows 7 on FiOS, works fine.
And if you do decide you want to install some Verizon software, my experience is that some probably will work, some probably will not. For example, the Verizon Call Assistant (VCA) client didn't work worth a *&^%#@, at least for me, but I don't need it as I have a very reliable Caller ID on TV setup and if I really need to access VCA I can use the website anyway. (and FWIW, that client didn't work correctly on Windows XP either!). I tried the PC-based In-Home Agent client, sort of seemed to work, but since I didn't have any problems or issues that needed to be fixed I deleted it.
Unless you really need a specific Verizon program, don't worry about it.
And just for completeness, I have not yet found any sofware, fee or free, from anybody, that won't work with FiOS, be it email (Windows Live Mail), browser (IE, Firefox, Safari, or Chrome), Avast anti-virus, etc, etc, etc. Of course I am sure that there is at least one program out there that won't work, but so far I have not found it
Edit: just saw your reply. I pay for 25 mbs down, 15 mbs up service, and I typically get 24+ down and 23+ up, wired or wireless, from multiple speed test sites, no tuning of Windows 7 on my part. It just works for me; some people do seem to have performance and/or connectivity issues, l don't and I don't know why they do. But one thing I will warn you about is that if you have a cordless phone (2.4 GHz) and you decide to use wireless, you may experience some connectivity problems when using the wireless connection, if you do try changing the channel number in the router to 1, 6, or 11.
Hope this helps.
