If you need new internet installed in your home or office, Verizon FIOS is a very good option for you.
Verizon FiOs
Verizon FIOS is an Internet service provider which offers broadband fiber-optic cable internet networks to their customers. To use this high-speed internet service, you would have to install the Verizon FIOS ISP in your home or office. According to the company, you can do the installation yourself or request for a technician to come and help you install the Verizon FIOS Internet service.
How can you use the Verizon FIOS internet?
To use the Verizon FIOS Internet service, you would need an RG6 coaxial cable (for running the signal), this cable would help you connect your router to the Verizon FIOS wall outlet. After your router has been connected to the Verizon FIOS wall outlet, you would need to connect your computers to your router through a wireless connection if your router does not use cables, or through an Ethernet cable if your router does not use a wireless connection.
You can seamlessly carry out this process by following these easy steps:
✅ Screw an end of your RG6 cable into the connection jack within your Verizon FIOS Internet router, and the other into the jack on your Verizon FIOS wall outlet.
✅ Plug in the power adapter of your internet router to a power source, and then plug the other part of the adapter into the socket of your router ( this socket can be found in the rear part of the router).
✅ Turn on your internet router, and wait for a few minutes for the internet LED lights and the power to turn on in the display panel.
✅ Plug in one part of your Ethernet cable into the port tagged “LAN” or “Network” located on the side or behind your computer. The other part of the cable should be inserted into the ports located within the router. You can connect the computer to your router with the same method.
✅ Turn on your computer and open a browser, email, or any other application that requires internet access. If your router has a wireless connection, follow the steps on your smartphone to connect to the internet.
✅ Check the display panel in the front part of your router to see if the WAN Lights are on or flashing.
✅ Lift your router and check the underbelly of the device for the ESSID (which is the name of your network), and the WEP key ( which is the password of your network).
✅ If your router has a wireless connection, put it on your computer, smartphone, or tablet. Most of these devices would automatically display the ESSID.
✅ Enter the network password (WEP key) into your devices and click on the 64/40 bit encryption.
✅ Save the configuration of your Verizon FIOS Internet network so that you would be able to connect automatically later.
