Re: Fios with no router at all

Verizon WAN IP's are on a 2 hour lease, so if you have waited that length of time, you should be able to pull a new IP regardless of whether you released/renewed.

If you are on PPPoE then plugging your computer directly into the jack (ONT) will not work.

If you are still unable to pull a valid IP address, call the FSC and ask them to force release the WAN IP.

Yes it will, but you will need to create a PPPOE connection on your computer.

@verizon.net

 Well it didn't work for me.. creating a PPOE on my comp.

Here is what I did...

control panel> network> create a new connection> connect to internet>manually>connect using a broadband connection that is always on.

Didn't work. I also tried the username and password option which I entered the ISP as verizon and the username/pass as anything.

Also can anyone tell me where I could release my IP in the router menu? I can't seem to find it.

Also if I wait 2 hours while plugged into the wall are you saying it will possibly work?

Thanks!

Staten Island, NY		 Also umm.. one other question. If It plugged into the wall for about 2 hours so it forces a new WAN.. should i release/renew in about 2 1/2 hours since my computer will be limited connectivity?

Thanks.

Somerville, NJ		 If you were originally given an Actiontech on you should be DHCP. If you were given a D-Link and connected prior to June 2006 you should be PPPOE. Easy enough to check in the router menu.
