In a move that will make the FiOS experience even better and more exciting for residential customers, Verizon is upgrading the capabilities of its in-home network equipment to provide more capacity, higher speeds and many other benefits.
The company announced that new broadband routers, designed to Verizon's specifications by Actiontec and Westell, will boost in-home speeds over coaxial cable to up to 175 megabits per second (Mbps) from 75 Mbps and allow operation of multiple simultaneous Wi-Fi networks.
