Verizon Fios G1100 FAQ
Is it compatible with TP-Link or Netgear range extenders?
Range extenders from TP-Link or Netgear are not compatible with the Verizon FiOS G1100 router. By retransmitting the router’s signal, range extenders are tools that increase the reach of wireless networks. A range extender needs to be compatible with the router’s wireless standard and be able to interact with it in order to function with that router.
Range extenders from TP-Link or Netgear are unable to handle the “MoCA” (Multimedia over Coax Alliance) wireless standard used by the FiOS G1100 router. Therefore, you cannot use these range extenders to increase the wireless coverage of the FiOS G1100 router because they are unable to interact with it.
If you are looking to extend the wireless coverage of your FiOS G1100 router, you will need to use a range extender that is specifically designed to work with the FiOS G1100 router. You can check with Verizon or the manufacturer of the router for recommendations on compatible range extenders.
- Actiontec WCB6200Q MoCA WiFi Extender: This range extender uses the MoCA wireless standard and is designed to work with the FiOS G1100 router. It is able to extend the router’s wireless coverage and provide fast and reliable performance.
- Actiontec WiFi Extender WCB3000N: This range extender is also designed to work with the FiOS G1100 router and uses the MoCA wireless standard. It is able to extend the router’s wireless coverage and provide fast and reliable performance.
- Netgear N300 WiFi Range Extender: This range extender is not specifically designed to work with the FiOS G1100 router, but it is able to communicate with the router and extend its wireless coverage. It uses the 802.11n wireless standard and is able to provide fast and reliable performance.
It is always a good idea to check with Verizon or the manufacturer of the FiOS G1100 router for recommendations on compatible range extenders before purchasing one. This will help ensure that you are using a range extender that is compatible with the router and will provide the best performance.
Can I connect a Mesh Network to my G1100 and just use it to get an internet connection - not for WiFi?
Absolutely, this device is compatible with any added WiFi router, and should work great with a mesh network as well. If you’re looking for a cost-effective mesh network for your setup, check out our selection of Mesh WiFi Systems, here on ModemGuides.com!
What firmware do these come with if I order from ModemGuides.com?
All of our inventory has been flashed with Verizon default firmware. The firmware installed may be need to be updated to the latest version which will happen automatically as soon as you activate it with Verizon.
Do I need a separate modem with this router if I have Verizon internet?
It is not necessary to have a separate modem in order to connect to the Verizon internet service because the Verizon Fios G1100 DSL modem is a combination device that serves both as a modem and a router. This device enables you to connect your computer or router to the internet and also provides wireless connectivity via WiFi. You can use either of these devices to access the internet.
You can connect multiple devices to the internet through the G1100’s built-in router, which enables you to share the internet connection throughout your home and provide access to the internet via Ethernet or wirelessly.
You can, however, use the G1100 as a modem only and connect it to your separate router if you have a separate router for additional features or for better wireless coverage. In this case, the G1100 will only function as a modem. In this particular situation, you will need to configure the router so that it is compatible with the G1100. This may involve turning off the DHCP server on the router and configuring the router so that it uses the IP address of the G1100 as the default gateway.
If you run into any problems while completing this process, you can consult the user manual that was included with the modem, as well as the website of the modem’s manufacturer or the website of Verizon, which both contain more in-depth instructions.
Note: If you are having trouble accessing the modem’s settings or configuring your network, you may need to contact Verizon for assistance. They will be able to guide you through the process.

Jade Wilson –

Clark VonRueden –
Great product
Aminat Makuachukwu –
At first, it was not set up properly but, I check once it was done and an error which was corrected. Product works well.
Etienne Green –
easy to install & set it up yourself
Yasmin Kabra –
All good
Abdullah Twasiima –
I like the slim look and the simple function of the router! I’m using the router for streaming TV programs and movies. But I’m still getting a lot of buffering and drop signals. Not pleased with the router!
Harvey Campbell –
I just had to change the connections when switching the routers and that was it!
Ratan Rai –
Everything was good except delay of arrival of delivery.
Obioma Isaac –
It was exactly what we needed for our Fios. Works perfectly, received quickly. Great seller.
Shannon Botsford –
So I’m not super technical but I was able to install this with little hassle. Follow the instructions from your provider. Seems to be working fine. I do not notice a big difference in speed but that doesn’t mean its not there it just means that I don’t care to measure anything to compare
Brandon Walker –
Signal sucks it’s always buffering and range sucks
Fatima Casper –
This is the very same model Gateway I’ve had on my Fios account for years. But this one was brand new out of the box. I was able to switch-out the old one and have Verizon activate it in about 15 minutes (Most of the time was waiting on the phone for tech support.) Fios Tech changed the password to my current password, and I was good to go! By the way, I ordered this on Tuesday eve and had it delivered Friday afternoon – Fantastic. Now, I just have to return my old one, so that I’m not charged a monthly rental fee. Well done! Very happy with the service and the delivery.
Carole Young –
Slow internet
Irving Streich –
5GHz wifi doesn’t work, after repeated trials.The device came in a box without plastic wrap.
Dean Anderson –
Used with FIOS, my max Internet speed was around 400 while I was paying for 1,000 mbps. FIOS-to-device signal was OK, not PC to device when using Wifi and/or direct high speed Ethernet. Exchanging this device out with original identical device cured problem, with no other adjustments. Worth the price and then-some.
Camron Cummings –
Works as normal. Great price at the time
Margret Towne –
Older technology but easy to install.k
Dorothy Atuhire –
Works well strong signal and cleared my streaming problem
Betty Rutherford –
Moving into our home we needed to either buy or rent a router/modem for our Verizon internet. After comparing prices I was able to purchase this exact model $10 cheaper than by Verizon. Installation was easy and it has been working perfectly.
Dakota Hill –
Single to use. Works as expected
Julius White –
Very good product an condition…
Jolayemi Nwachukwu –
Purchased this G1100 router to avoid paying Verizon for a rental. I’m quite tech savvy and savvy with networking equipment. If I had any idea of how much of a headache and how many hours would have been wasted because of this router, I would have avoided it. It ships with Frontier firmware (apparently Frontier is a west coast cable company that also offers Fios service), even though it is Verizon branded. Apparently it can be activated in some markets, but Verizon could not activate it in Washington, DC. I wasted hours on the phone with Verizon, moving the router to different coaxial outlets, booting, rebooting, hard-resetting, running diagnostics, etc. I was led to believe that this router would ship with Verizon firmware, as I knew to avoid one with Frontier firmware.Even IF you are able to get this router working with Verizon Fios, Verizon won’t support it or push firmware updates to it. You may as well spend more to get a Linksys/Asus/Netgear/Buffallo/etc. router with a better chipset OR pay more to get a Verizon G1100 router WITH Verizon firmware. If you have Verizon Fios and want to avoid the headaches I went through, avoid this router at all costs!
Andrea George –
Easy to set up and I began using it immediately.
Nishita Pant –
The picture posted mentioned that the router has firmwar but when I recieved it , it hasn’t. It was old version
Biren Anand –
really expensive for legacy technology – nothing special but works with Verizon monopoly network
Edyth Byanyima –
Installation was smooth and quick. I did call for technical support just for my own peace of mind but everything is very easy to navigate and am delighted with this product.
Victoria Nabimanya –
Good
Priyanka Mohan –
Great product. Very easy to setup!
Jimmy Ding –
Did not see invoice , installation doc in box
Zoe Lebsack –
Works just as good as the rented one from Verizon. Then I find the rented one is included in pakage as free. It’ll just keep both.
Olufunmi Elizabeth –
I received this product the middle of Sept 2019. Had to have it replaced January 2020 because it no longer worked. Seller would not replace or refund money because it was over 30 days. Not worth the money if it only works for 4 months.
Fatima Orn –
Everything you need to know is on the side of the router. Worked great out the box and I am saving $120 a year (without all the fees added). I am pretty tech savvy so this was a snap. If you are tech all thumbs, you may want to enlist some help. With the effort however!
Arnold Mabasa –
it works perfectly for my computer, TV, IPod
Michael Martin –
Easy to install. It worked the first time.
Roxanne Kunde –
The item arrived in a thin paper bag. When I opened it, the Ethernet cable was missing. I can see many scratches in the router and it even was chipped in front of the router. Seller description was false!!!
Priscilla Uys –
Easy to install.
Juhi Choudhry –
Works well. Picked up internet right away. 4 stars instead of 5 because it’s a refurbished Frontier gateway that can’t connect with Fios app, or broadcast or connect via 5GHZ. Still beats renting a Fios modem.
Jackie Bailey –
Works great and easy to set up. Eliminated my monthly rental from Verizon.
Hermann Donnelly –
I replaced my old Fios router (bronze casing) with this because the WiFi kept cutting out, either it was dying or I had too many devices attached to it. ANYWAY… I shut the old one off, disconnected it and connected the new one in exactly the same way, 5 minutes later all was well. Included instructions showed me where to go to customize the WiFi and life is good :). 24 hours later it’s still ok so I think we’re good to go.
Smriti Pandya –
Arrived ahead of schedule. Works great out of the box (instructions included for activation).
Kirti Balan –
I was skeptical about this router after I read the review of how it might not work because of the difference firmware and it may need to update it. It works really well and fast. The price was obviously cheaper than if you rent it, also the prompt delivery earlier than expected, what was easy was the swap out of the router, just unplug the power and the cable from the old one and plugIt to the new. Over all really happy with the purchase.
Maryam Osinski –
I purchased this from Cyber_Geek was sent Priority Mail from NYC. This router/gateway was used to replace an Verizon Actiontec router that was working fine but is only an 2.4 GHz band wireless router.This used router had very minor scuffs and a missing HAN cover from the back of the router. This does not effect the operation of the router but is a cosmetic flaw. It had a tag saying “Tested and Functional” on it. After releasing the Broadband/Coax IP address in the Actiontec (you need to log into the Actiontec to do this) I unplugged the power from the Actiontec so it would not renew the IP Address before I connected this Verizon G1100. I then connected the cables to the G1100 and powered it up. After 5-10 minutes, I was able to log into the G1100 from the connected PC without an issue. I was able to use the Verizon My FiOS app to log into the router remotely, which you can not do with the Actiontec router.This used router is being used in a business location, not for home use. It is running digital phones and wireless building thermostats, cams, printer, PC, STB. I have used it for more than a week and there are NO issues with this router/gateway so far. I am getting more speed than what the Actiontec was getting, I measured 5-6 meg more. The wireless coverage is the same with this router. I have seen no improvement as it has to cover two buildings and the walls are quite thick. The 2.4 GHZ band is used more here because of the distance the signal has to travel.I would make sure if you buy a used router and going to use it with Verizon service, you stick with Verizon firmware installed on the router already. I know how to overcome tech problems, but I would not advise starting with the wrong brand firmware to begin with. Also you will see all the old devices that the router was connected to in its past life. To remove them you need to assign a static ip to each one and THEN remove them. There is no easy way to remove them in the router GUI, but leaving them will cause no harm to the router operation anyway. Update: The new firmware that Verizon now has allows you to remove old devices much easily now. The router still works without a problem. Feb 2021
Ronel Anthony –
Easy to install and works like a charm…
Kasey Carter –
I JUST HUNG UP WITH VERIZON. VERIZON HAS BEEN CHARGING ME A MONTHLY RENTAL FEE. AS IT TURNS OUT, IT’S THEIR ROUTER AND WHEN I PLUGGED IT INTO THE SYSTEM, THEY STARTED CHARGING ME A RENTAL FEE
Zelda Kulas –
I’m a fios customer, fed up with being ripped off by Verizon with a router rental fee. The ROI on this is a measly 6 months, so easy call financially. Also didn’t want to reinvent the wheel, so bought the same router I was renting. Yes, it had Frontier firmware on it, whatever that means. When I logged into the router at 192.168.1.1 the settings page was branded Frontier. I’m in NY so i have no idea who that is. The router itself is physically identical to the one i was replacing. I unplugged the power, coax, verizon ethernet, and my ethernet cables, switched routers, plugged everything back in where it was, and voila, everything worked. TV, internet, phone as before. I was worried about the Frontier thing, so much so that I called Verizon beforehand. They were like, just swap it out, so that was a wasted call. My return kit is on the way from Verizon. Can’t wait to get that fee off my bill, which is too damn high anyway. Reading the reviews, I can see that some people had bad experiences. With a techy thing like a router I’m not surprised. I guess I got lucky and hope that you will too. Peace.
Maybell Abbott –
This gateway router is no faster than the 9 year old Verizon unit it replaced. WiFi has dual bands but coverage is no better. Setup instructions were incorrect on how to log onto router to set up guest network and login password in unit was incorrect. Started guessing at alternate characters and was finally able to log on. Frontier is ripping off their customers with this unit and the monthly router fee.
Rupal Sen –
Was perfect and in great shape. Just swapped out my current FiOS router with this one and was up and running in 10 minutes. No more rental fee! BTW, mine had Verizon FiOS firmware and actually works a bit better than the new WiFi 6 FiOS router for FiOS One, but I am only using the MoCa functionality since I have Orbi for WiFi.
Pat McGlynn –
The router works great
Beulah Gleichner –
Was not recognized on verizon fios network. Had Frontier software. Worked only as simple wifi router.
