shaithis01 Posted June 5, 2007 CID Share Posted June 5, 2007 I know this has been answered in various forms but I'm asking for clarity. I'm looking to replace my Verizon Actiontec router with an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station (the new one). I'm in Irving, TX. Am I understanding correctly that the router needs to be configured for PPPOE and the username and password can be anything and the router will then connect to the service? Thanks again.

Thanks again. verizon fios has DHCP and PPPOE so you have to find out which one you have. they started with PPPOE when it first came out but they are now doing DHCP. once you find out which one you have let us know and we can help you out.

shaithis01 Posted June 7, 2007 Author CID Share Posted June 7, 2007 I'm DHCP. I released the IP on the Actiontec and then replaced it with my router and it worked like a champ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
