Thank you for posting this. I went to Verizon recently to upgrade my phone and they sent me home with a router for free because I was interested. I did not unbox yet since I have a month free and I wanted to just take a weekend to test. I would not have thought to check router type if it were not for this video. I guess they are trying to get rid of the old routers since the newest ones came out in December. I may still test since your download speeds were double what I currently get with our provider. Our current router is actually near a window already and on our 2nd floor where our "office" area is. We have to use amplification devices for our items downstairs so it's not a huge deal for me, but I do think I will return the router now that I see they just want to dump old routers.

@TT-dz8zf Год назад

Thanks for the review, especially showing us how to do the IP pass through. Because of your review, I gave it a try. For $25/mo, why not? I just got it today and my test speed is consistently ~400 Mbps. Coming from Woway 1 Gbps plan at $65/mo, I feel like I’ve been under utilizing the bandwidth. So it’s time to downsize and save myself some money. To me, Verizon 5G UW is more reliable than cable. At least for my area. I always find myself disabling home wifi more than often and switch back to 5G UW on my phone many times…..

After a year or so of use, I can highly recommend it. I experience power outages often, with a backup generator we still have power and internet. I have to restart it once every three or so months, aside from that it has worked well allowing the family to stream movies and play online PC games. During inclement weather, it can be a bit slow at times. We are moving to an area where I can get cable internet but will be keeping the Verizon 5G service, the cost for performance is well worth it, in my case it is just convenient to have.

@tobiewolfen01 Год назад

Good insight, I'll definitely consider using my own router. I work from home and went with the 5G Plus option for the faster speeds. I asked Verizon specifically for the gateway that mounts to a window to get an optimized connection. However, they refused to give it to me because they said they only give it to customers that are in a 5G UW coverage area. The tower near my home is 5G and will eventually get UW - so once that's turned on apparently I can swap the gateway for free. Seems counterintuitive why they didn't just give me the better option upfront, but I'll see how it goes with the cube version instead. I'm having to go with Verizon since the infrastructure in the neighborhood sucks, Xfinity didn't even bother laying any cable and the fiber speeds are a joke (75Mbps/5Mbps). Hoping Verizon is the solution I need for my new home. 🙏

Good information. Yes this product is great for competition. And it's subject to your cell towers near by if they have N77 or MMWave and as N77 gets more MHZ soon this will only get better as more will be able to be spread around

@CrossForum Год назад

Great review of the unit. I'm considering this or the T-Mobile unit more towers near me by 2X) to replace a cabled internet; I still use the cabled internet due to needing the speed until I retire later this year, and its cheap in my area since there is plenty of competition. If I swap now the cost for either will be the same per month as cabled internet ($50 in my area). Have you ever considered a cell signal booster for the Verizon 5G unit? Pretty simple to install, antenna outside with a coaxial cord feeding into an amplifier and antenna. It may allow you to put the 5G box anywhere you want in your home and increase upload and download speeds.

@mdorn9077 Год назад

Thank you this was very helpful. I called Verizon the other day and even they had a tough time telling me my likely 5G home internet speed. It appears to be dependent on your proximity to the right kind of tower. So, I am hesitating right now - a little afraid to give up my 1 Gig fiber optic connection!

@therealistintheboot8822 Год назад

If you have a Verizon phone or know someone with a Verizon phone just get them walk into your house and test their speeds on their phone. Whatever signal and speeds they're getting would tell you how good the Verizon Home Internet will be. The Home Internet is basically if you turned on your phone Verizon phone's hotspot and turned it into a Internet Modem.

@redoscar540 2 года назад

I love that competition is starting to become available. I have a slow, grandfathered, cable internet plan that meets our needs. But if the cable company tried to jack up the price much more than they already have, I would jump ship to something like this in a heartbeat. My only concern is that guarantee of only two years before Verizon could start raising the rates. For me, $50/month is quite an increase over what I pay now. And I doubt I would ever be a Verizon mobile phone customer. I am a very happy Mint Mobile customer. Great video nonetheless!

@Behfor 2 года назад

The good thing is other providers such as T-Mobile is also starting to provide the 5G Internet, so hopefully more competition can help to prevent them from increasing their prices! Thanks so much for sharing your experience and glad you liked the video :-)

But it still worked, sort of. But when i placed it facing the correct direction my connectivity problems went away.

EXCELLENT video. Just the right information I needed. Now, this was interesting in the 2:31 mark of your video. If I'm paying for the more expensive service, and ONLY get the Verizon Internet Gateway box, then I'm getting the same performance as the cheaper plan! Do we as consumers have the option to choose our equipment, and choose the 5G gateway box instead?

@Behfor 2 года назад

I'm not too sure, they didn't give me that option though. I think they have updated their website regarding the plan information and they no longer mention that there are 2 devices for the 5G Home! I would suggest to ask them to make sure you have the most updated information thanks.

The customer service lady was very informative regarding rolls out while the guy who sold me the service was just looking for his commission.

So if I understand correctly I am at an advantage using a different router and turning the gateway onto passthrough mode and using it as the modem? I'm asking this because where I live internet is very bad. I used a jetpack also from Verizon for internet and changed to this. My speeds are download 70 mbps and 12 upload. Not as good as yours at all but for me very very good. I'm wondering though about maybe more settings as to get the most speed I possibly can out of this little guy. I use it primarily for gaming. I had a heck of a time getting my xbox to get an open NAT type. It took hours. I had to forward port it or something it's called. It's advertised as plug and play. Idk about that my pc as well was a little tricky bit still I have to mess with my Xbox settings every time I turn it on. So could you maybe give me some insight as to what settings I should be using to best utilize this internet. I'd greatly appreciate it. I'll get a router if that's best or hook it up directly to my computer and run mobile hotspot from it eventually using it for my wifi? Please help me out brother! i just ran a speed test with my cell phone its an s21 by the same carrier. its download is 195! off of the verizon home internet gateway its only getting 80 at best.

I’m just a casual home owner user. Your video is great. I just got my Verizon box. The tech can only get 4g. He put a ticket in. I have a tp- Link mesh unit,( x-20 ), 3 towers. Usually 1 tower tower is the router that is hooked up to my personal Arias Modem. But I now have the Verizon box and I’m going to go into tp link app and set towers as a access point instead, one being a router? Do you think this will work? We don’t game, tv and phones is really all there is. It’s just a weaker signal in the back of the house. What’s your thoughts?

@Behfor Год назад

Hi, you can either use your own wireless router as an access point and connect it to the Verizon box, or enable IP passthrough on the Verizon box and connect your own W router as a w router. I would prefer the second one because you get to use all the features of your wireless router, if you use it as an AP, some of it's features will no longer be available. Thanks

@to5msheppard Год назад

You make it sound easy I think the Verizon guy is going to call me back and we’re going to try that. So you’re saying use my TP router the way I am now the first tower be a router. My other way of thinking was if I use the Verizon box with the modem router. The other three towers can be just used to send a signal I don’t do that much. It’s just a TV and a couple phones to me and my wife we’re both in our 60s I’m not gaming I’m not uploading videos just watching TV on Amazon Netflix and Hulu.

Thank you for the great video. I got min on 6/27 but they gave me the 4G box and service "by mistake" at the store. After hours on the phone, and not more store visits, I got the 5G Box like you have. It's the only type now (per their service department anyway). Initial testing - download was initially 145Mbps around 6 PM. I tried it at 5 AM today and it''s 321Mbps hard wire to LAN2. BUT only 94Mbps on LAN1. I'm not sure why LAN1 is so slow. At first I thought the entire switch was 10/100 but only LAN1 is 100Mb while LAN 2 is Gb. That could have been a problem when I do what you did but didn't use IP passthrough. Attach Verizon box to my 802.1AX router to LAN1 port (I could opt to leave both WiFi s on and use both LAN ports for different networks - I connect outside systems in front of my router/Firewall. But, if anyone does this, DON'T USE LAN 1. Have you seen any issues like this on your LAN1?

I need to figure out what to do here, I have spectrum and my internet keeps shutting off for hrs sometimes. I literally bought a brand new asus gaming router last year, it helped fix the speed issues. But now all of a sudden they keep turning my internet off on us. Seems like after so many hrs of streaming shows, or playing a game for an hr or so they shut us off. I wanna know if I can use my router with Verizon homes internet.

@christophermoore6110 Год назад

I actually had a nightmare of a time getting mine to work, the light was yellow for a while, then it turned white but I still didn’t have an internet connection, so I held the reset button on the bottom and when it rebooted I had wifi! Just thought that was an interesting story.

Can you connect a mesh system to this and put it in bridge mode?

It’s been over 2 years I have never got Verizon 5G home internet available in my area what a bummer!

@Urgreatestpoo 2 года назад

The whole part about the gateways offering different speeds it’s a bit not updated as Verizon just recently upgrade the cubre to be the only one carrying that 5G uw

@GoFishing813 2 года назад

What if my router settings page doesn’t have the LAN settings? How can I do it? Cause my settings doesn’t appear as your.

@guy7622 Год назад

Same for me. We don't have other options. My worry is that it will be hard to work from home with the Verizon Home Internet.

@AlexGarakani Год назад

Did your test results via your Asus router happen by only enabling the IP Passthrough on Verizon Gateway or, by modifying some other settings on the Gateway as well such as turning off the DHCP server and enabling the DMZ Host? Please clarify... Thanks

Do you know if TWO of these gateways placed next to each other will interfere with each other and cause issues?

@Behfor Год назад

Generally it's not a good idea to do that! As far as the WiFi is concerned, they can very much interfere with each other, unless they are using different WiFi channels which even then they can still degrade each other's WiFi if they are too close.

If I connect my existing Netgear Night Hawk Router to the 5G Verizon device with a wired connection, not sure if that is possible, in any case, do i have to change the passwords on my TV and desk top and laptops i use in the house BTW great video, love the accent LOL

@Behfor Год назад

Not sure what passwords are you talking about ( email? WiFi? Windows? Netflix?)?! But if you're using the same wireless router with the old settings, then even your WiFi password would be the same as before, so you should be fine. Thanks.

Does anyone even know what you have to do to get the LVSKIHP, I was given the Cube cause that's all the Verizon agent at the store was being told I could get, but I live 1/4 mile from a water tower with the antenna array in a 5G Ultrawideband zone. I can Max out the Cube at 300 so I feel confident I could push the Window Mounted Unit close to a Gig, Id be Happy with 700-800. I really want the 50 Upload speed however and Looks you can only get that with the LVSKIHP.

@rufiorufioo Год назад

I must say 5g Internet surprised the hell out of me.. it's actually good enough.

@kingdon9690 2 года назад

How did you get into those settings for Lan etc mine doesn't show any of those settings it's different

@Behfor 2 года назад

The way I got to those settings is exactly the way you can see in the video! Mine still is the same as the video but some people who very recently got their gateway device have mentioned that their setting layout is different. I can guess that maybe Verizon recently has made some changes in the gateway devices it is shipping now. It's just a guess though. Thanks.

@byron2521 2 года назад

Checking all this out for leverage. I'm a disgruntled customer! I’m going to the store, which I hate dealing with their snotnosed college salespeople (they usually try and rip you off, say they don't work on commission but that's B.S. worse than car salesmen), to see if I could get a decent deal FINALLY. Been a customer for over 6 years. Why have you been a customer for 6 years, if you hate them you may ask? Because where I live there had been no other options until now. It was either Verizon or nothing. I had my MiFi box for 6 years, runs like crap (like old dial-up.)! I wouldn't even go into the store to try and get a new one because I hate dealing with them so much. Plus, they used to give you a new one for free, now they charge for it. Was thinking of trying this new box, if they say it's not available in my area or give me that dumb look like they don't know what I’m talking about (got that from them before), I’m paying off my phone and saying, “SEE YA!” This is their last chance. They give methe deal advertised, no bait-and-switch like they usually do, or SEE YA!

@abrahamxeneon Год назад

I am going to make an interesting comment, I live near a Verizon antenna and I have the 5Guw here in my house and it had the largest gateway that should be pointing towards the antenna that device with the $50 plan that I have as a client 25$ the Internet usually exceeds 1500mbs where I had it installed in my room it usually gives more than 1gbs. For reasons that I have moved to Miami Beach, the newest model of Verizon is already available but it is the small box (ARC-XCI55AX) I have ordered it for that new address and now I am using it where the other device used to be the large gateway it gave about 1000mbs and the speed with the (ARC-XCI55AX) with the same plan $25 gives me the speed between at least 200 and almost 400mbs, that is, the small box the problem is that it does not receive the signal in the same way as verizon gateway that uses millimeter waves and of course we must understand that one is larger than the other and its consumption is also higher in electricity. The plan to select does not influence anything. It is the device that causes the limitation.

@Behfor Год назад

Wow 1500 Mbps is crazy!! Thanks for sharing :-)

@peteysykes-smith7387 Год назад

Is this device good to use for working from home with 2 desktop computers and a lap top all being used for the same job?

@Behfor Год назад

If the quality of the verizon 5g network is good in your area, this should be more than good for working from home.

Did you have to use the verizon app? Just got it and it says connected with the white LED, but no internet. Can connect to it and change SSID no problem but otherwise feels like something is wrong. Chat is pitiful so need to call tomorrow

@Behfor Год назад

NO, I don't think I ever used the App! I would try to ping Google (8.8.8.8) and connect to it once wired and once through wifi and see if pings are successful or not. That should be a good starting point. Good luck!
