Great video. The new Verizon 5G home is now under Network Settings, Network Connection, Bridge, and IP passthrough.

Need to change the mtu setting in the router from the default 1500 to 1428 which is what Verizon recommends for their service. This will help prevent packet fragmentation.

@tylenoljackson9378 Год назад

You can also just hook up your router to port 2 without IP passthrough and use it as an access point. It works the same, you just can't access the router GUI. You then have option to use the gateway wifi or your own router's wifi, or any device hooked up thereafter to the network.

@ANewIdeaFarsi Год назад

Thanks. It was very helpful.

@thomasnguyen7934 Год назад

Thanks for sharing, I do the same way without enabling the ip passthrough. The 2.4 for some reason doesn’t want to work with my WiFi outlets so I use my tplink 2.4 for it to work. However, I’m able to access my router configuration, even remotely.

@1psydlogic 10 месяцев назад

I inadvertently started out on port 2, when I look at the control settings it shows ip passthrough (in green) is connected BUT the checkbox isn't checked. I have eero mesh, so I just plug and played my eero after setting up verizon box - and happen stance used port 2. Does connection in green in ip passthrough (although not checked) mean it is on? My wired download speed is about 300 mb, with wifi 160-200...depending on house, that is 24 hours later, I believe this can change with time. ty

@@ANewIdeaFarsi It didnt work for me, when i go to my verizon page i dont have the "IP Passthrough" section, I lookd at advanced and theres no such option. I also tried Tyleno's tip and it didnt work for me :( I have the same netgear router as yours.

@@WafflesMcFluffy I would suggest factory resetting your Verizon internet box and if that didn't work you can always call verizon and ask them to turn it on for you so that you can connect a different router to it. Good Luck

@milosusa 10 месяцев назад

Yeah I did that like 5 months ego and internet is a working great with my stronger router. Only problem is that I can't connect to the Verizon box settings anymore. I assume because is not acting like the router anymore, right ? Not that I need to connect, just wondering, if the Verizon would do some software updates will box update anyway without me accessing the box and click on software update in setting . Any idea ?

@ANewIdeaFarsi 10 месяцев назад

Hello. You can still access the box admin setting page using Ethernet cable. I am not sure about the software update though. I never thought about it to be honest.

@justina.simins8300 Месяц назад

I did this to my router, and it works great, however instead of the white light I have a solid green light. I know the green light indicates the wifi on the Verizon gateway is disabled (which it is in passthrough mode), but in the video, you have a solid white light. Should I have a solid white light or solid green light?

@ANewIdeaFarsi Месяц назад

If you are connected to the WiFi through your router then the color of the light doesn’t matter. I think you have the newer version of the Verizon box and it has green light instead of white. But make sure you are connected to your external router.

@@ANewIdeaFarsi I live in a very rural area and get less than 10 mbps but with the help of a 4x4 mimo antenna connected to the Verizon box I get in the range of 20 to 50 depending on the day. Interestingly enough using this method the router seemed to give me slower speeds when an Xbox was connected via Ethernet to the router that was also connected wirelessly to the Verizon box via up pass through.

@jimdowney6580 Год назад

Once you enable passthrough is Lan 1 port no longer usable for an ethernet connection to the internet? In other words, had you not disconnected your laptop would it still be connected to the internet or only the Verizon cube?

@ANewIdeaFarsi Год назад

Good question. I think I would still be able to use it as Ethernet. Since my router has 4 more Ethernet ports, I never tested to see whether lan 1 can be used as Ethernet

Once you plug in your netgear router, do all the settings and connected devices automatically transfer over to the netgear. Does the ssid and passwords all remain the same?? Also, if you need to access router settings are you using Verizon settings page or are you now logging in to the netgear router?

Yes my password didn’t change. To change the router settings you need to log in to your router page in my case is Netgear.
