I was worried when I tried to set up this router because I purchased this to replace my old router on Verizon. When I upgraded my speed to 400/400 they told me I could not keep this router. I planned to use LAN port into a new mesh router system. Anyway, this replace,ent works great but it does say “Frontier” on firmware inside router instead of Verizon. When I hooked up new router Verizon technical support stated they could see everything just the same. This was a great buy.

Arrived on time and in very good condition with all of the promised components. Works great replacing the FIOS G1100 router at $11/month. Payback in 3 months! Doesn't have 5G wi-fi like the G1100 but that speed didn't work more than 20 feet from the G1100 router so ended up using 2.4G most of the time anyway. Same 2.4G speed as this MI424WR. Wired speeds same as newer G1100 router.

It was easy to set up and the connectivity is strong. It has a coax and ethernet port so everything from FIOS is up and running. The synch button does not work, but it was not worth the effort to return it. I'm satisfied with the purchase.

Rev. I is the current model that Frontier ships with their FiOS service and provides configuration for WPA-2 wireless security. I found that it boots & accesses the Internet noticeably faster than the earlier Westell 9100EN, but draws about 3x the power. (I also experienced two heat-related failures with the Westell units that drew less power.) The Actiontec does use an internal passive heat sink, but one chip runs at 133 degF surface temperature. Therefore I added a cooling fan that reduced the chip temp to 86 degF. In lieu of a fan, I would recommend using the case slots to vertically mount the router to the side of the desk or hutch with unobstructed air flow on the top and bottom to maximize convection cooling.

This is modem/router was a similar, if not exact, replacement of the model loaned to me thru Verizon. I no longer have to pay for the monthly rental fee Verizon chargers nor buy there model that cost $99+ dollars. Great buy and highly recommend!! Unit Condition - The unit had a couple of blemishes and did not come with the stand but worked like a charm. Thanks

This was a great purchase and the Seller, too. I had the same one. An accident broke it. I got the same model again. And this one somehow is stronger and better. Don't know why the other was lesser. It was from Verizon directly when upgraded to Fios. It also extends further. And I had a network extender with my old router. So I'm very happy.

Great, inexpensive way to extend your network. Plug in to a spare cable outlet and easy to configure as a MoCA router and have your network available in the basement. Down side is only one SSID.

Make sure you get the right power supply. This one came with the right power supply. It is different than for other models like Rev E and Rev F. Also, it has two short antennas, not the one longer antenna like in the photo. My computers can access the internet. 22.0 download speed, and 9.89 upload speed. Using fios. 5 stars because many routers are broken, and this one works.

Can connect to WLAN via either coax or ethernet. Currently it is connected to my fios ONT via ethernet and I get exactly the 100/100mbps I am paying for over a wired connection. On wireless I get about 30mbps up/down, but I think that is because there are a few other WiFi networks nearby using the same channel. I bought this router to avoid having to pay Verizon's $10 a month router rental. Works like a charm and have had no issues so far.

This router works fine with lan but works very slow with wifi.. my apt is 1300 sqft .. i see the speed of Wi-Fi is less in my other rooms..
