I'll repeat what I said in a previous thread....
Verizon gave me a wireless-G D-Link router
with my FIOS service. I am not happy with
the router as it provides a very short range
of bandwidth across my house.
I attempted to add a D-LINK range extender,
but it failed to work despite the fact the
company said it's compatable.
Now....
I want to go back to using Linksys products.
I want to buy a Wireless-G router and a speed
booster. I think that will cover what I need.
The problem?
I am not sure how easy it will be to configure
the router to Verizon's Fios settings.
My first question...
Is it a simple matter of unplugging my current
D-LINK router and replacing it with a Linksys
and expecting it to work?
If not, how easy is it going to be to figure
out how to set up the Linksys router to Verizon's
specs? I know that Verizon will probably not
even assist me unless I pay for tech support.
Just wondering how hard or easy it may be
to switch brands of routers. Would appreciate
any help you can provide.
Thanks
