Have you given Verizon's own speedtest site a try?

»speedtest.verizon.net

I'd be curious to see the kind of results it gives you compared to speedtest.net considering it's within the VZ network.

I ran the Verizon New York test again and this time got 151.434 Mbps/36.342 Mbps. I read the full report this time and the round trip was 23.57ms.

I ran the Verizon NY test twice again using WiFi and got 74.442 Mbps/35.506 Mbps/42.6 ms and 71.01 Mbps/35.743 Mbps/44.71 ms.

Just curious; if this is a new FiOS install, have you run the Verizon Optimizer on the PC you're doing the speedtests from? It will make several changes to the tcp stack on your PC that make a noticeable impact on upload performance.

I received this router (I) last night with my upgrade to the triple play. Shipped firmware 40.19.22

I am in upper Westchester County, NY.

Is there a user guide available for this router? Could not find anything via Google.

3.1 Overview
The FiOS Router provides the user with wireless connectivity over the 802.11b,
g, and n standards (the most common wireless standards). 802.11b has a
maximum data rate of 11 Mbps, 802.11g has a maximum data rate of 54 Mbps,
and 802.11n has a maximum data rate of 160 Mbps. All standards operate in the
2.4 GHz range. This was on the cd i got with the router.

Had a tech at my place today so I asked him about the I. He didn't know what the difference was between the rev G which I have with the 150 plan and the rev I, but he gave me one to check out.

He also told me that they are using the rev I for all the new installs, but that he was told to still use the rev G for 150 customers.

Anyone see any difference between rev G and rev I?

reply to rev I
I had a tech out today, asked him about the Revision I router and he knew nothing about it. Maybe that garage didn't get the new shipment yet.

The Verizon stores sells and accepts returns for DSL products as well.
While this does not necessarily mean that they can do exchanges for DSL products.
If rev I is the new general release FiOS router then I think alot of us are very interested in upgrading to the gigabit switching and newer wireless N features. Especially if it is free.
So can anybody confirm (or deny) doing a FiOS router exchange at a Verizon store?

reply to rev I
Being a former TWC customer I kind of expect that retail stores do exchanges for things other than STBs. I had the pleasure of returning their cable modems more than once.

But TWC definitely treated cable modems as monthly rentals like their STBs.
Verizon would be providing less competitive customer service if it did not allow their customers to exchange their routers - we pay them a small fortune every month.

I had a tech out to house. I was having a problem with Internet connection freezing or going slow. He replaced the ONT and the router and to my suprise installed a Actiontec MI424WR N Rev 1, replacing my Rev F. All is good.
