As part of your Verizon FiOS Internet Service, you will receive a wireless router. Existing FiOS TV customers will use the router provided with their TV service. Your router will enable you to create a home network so that multiple computers can be online at the same time. Your router also contains special diagnostic software that can help us trouble-shoot and correct problems should you experience trouble with your Internet Service. You will need to use the Verizon router with your FiOS Internet service. In addition, new equipment will be installed at most homes for the Verizon FiOS network. An Optical Network Terminal (ONT) will be installed either on the inside or outside of your home, if one doesn’t already exist. The ONT is typically installed near where your current Network Interface Device is mounted. The ONT power supply will need to be plugged into an indoors electrical outlet, so please ensure that an outlet is located within 150 feet of where the ONT will be installed.
