You will now see a bunch of settings for this interface. Then click on the 'Settings' button at the bottom. To do this, click on the 'Broadband Connection (Coax)' from the connection list.

you will need to release your MI424-WR's IP from the ONT or you will NOT be able to have your new router DHCP an IP for itself!.

Now you will need to do this very important step.

To see them all, click on the 'Advanced' button below that list.

You should now see a list of interfaces that exist in the router.

Once you are there, click on 'Network Connections' at the menu on the left.

Go ahead and log back into the router if you have 'Restore Defaults', otherwise just click on 'My Network' at the top of the screen.

It's a good idea to change the password after this is all done of course. Remember that the username and password resets itself to the ActionTec default of 'admin' and 'password'. You will then see 'Restore Defaults' at the lower left side of the screen (under the red toolbox icon). To reset the config to defaults, click on 'Advanced' at the top, then click yes in the confirmation box. Once you are logged in, go ahead and reset the router to the default settings if you have done numerous customizations in the past, otherwise don't worry about it.

If you did a hard reset, you may not be able to reconnect to the ONT due to a configuration issue with the default router settings (I will explain how to get it working as you keep reading) If neither works, you will need to do a hard reset on the router (hold down the reset pinhole with a paperclip for about 10 seconds).

The default username and password for the MI424-WR is 'admin' and 'password, however verizon techs tend to change the password to 'password1'.

Open your web browser and type in 192.168.1.1 in the URL and press 'enter'.

Connect your computer to the MI424-WR using an ethernet connection if you have not done so.

Instead of paying at least $100 to fix something that's not your fault (buying a MoCA to ethernet bridge), make the MI424-WR as a bridge and use a router of your choice!.

I personally would take this trade off over NAT errors any day While your overall throughput may drop when using a store bought consumer grade router, your actual usability may increase. This problem makes your FiOS connection next to useless. No one has been able to produce a workaround for this issue and neither Actiontec or Verizon has acknowledged this issue officially. This problem seems to be widespread with this router, regardless of which firmware release is used. During this time, you will unable to browse, ping, or connect to anything until you wait about 3 minutes. When the NAT table is overflowed, you will get the 'No IP for NAT - connections may fail' error logged in your MI424-WR's security log. The NAT table is easily overflowed just by running a single bittorrent or in some cases, playing games.

The MI424-WR is a pretty decent router (is powerful, has lots of features, and is quite flexible), however the major issue with it at the moment is the puny NAT table (only 1kb in size).

As part of the new FiOS installations, you are given an ActionTec MI424-WR router.

New FiOS installations now connect you using the MoCA system from the ONT, not ethernet, thus preventing you from directly connecting a router of your choice to the ONT (some of you may say that the ethernet jack at the ONT is still there and you could run an ethernet cable to it, but it will NOT work because the ONT was not configured for ethernet connectivity during initial install by verizon).

!!WARNING:Following these instructions will disable your Verizon TV service features, such as On-Demand. You can disable the router features and hook up your trusty old linksys, just use the instructions below. So you just got Verizon FIOS installed and are starting to realize that the ActionTec MI424-WR modem/wifi router that they gave you is a piece of junk.(unless of course you want to go back to the stone age and use an ethernet cord!!) Don't worry, there's hope.
