Will this work with a fiber connection? And if so, I presume I can hook a wireless route up to the modem? Thanks

I'm not sure about the fiber connection, but it will definitely work with a router

If you mean for Verizon FIOS yes it should work. Verizon FIOS is only Fiber up to the local Routers they have and then it is Coax to the home. For internet it will work fine but some said they had lost TV options and other things. So for internet use only this thing should certainly work and be a thumbs up good to go.

From my experience this would need a LAN cable or a USB Stick to be able to produce a wifi signal. I will try to check for you in the coming days and will let you know

I have it hooked up to our Charter (cable co.) high speed modem which works just fine. The cable internet is really fast but the speed is limited by the router, but its fast enough for our uses.

I personally have it set up wireless through my router; but the instruction book states that you can use an USB-Ethernet adaptor and plug it into the USB port in the back of the unit. If you get it, hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

I'm sorry but this is strictly a modem. I bought a wireless router to go with it. I mistakenly answered yes, so i you got a yes from me oops it's a NO. This is strictly a modem.

Evan, I think this is not the product for you if you have fiber optic internet service to your home / location. This router is standard technology and speeds. The Verizon fios website or customer support may be a better choice for options to extend your wifi connections. This router uses a standard ethernet type connection to my cable modem to link my wifi devices (laptop, iPad) to TWC internet services. The data transfer speeds are adequate for my needs but likely significantly slower than what you expect with a fiber connected ISP.

Hi Anne, This is a Modem only. It has no inherent router/wireless capabilities. It has a port for the Coaxial cable and another port, Ethernet, to plug in the Cable from your router. Normally, your router will have a special ethernet port for the wire to the modem and 4 other ethernet ports.I have this modem for over a year now and it has been pretty reliable, only dropping the connection when Comcast burps.Good Luck Jim

Yes, it will work with a wireless router, but the call quality will not be as good as if you had installed the telo between the modem and the router. I tried using the wireless adapter, but I ended up switching back to wired configuration because call quality was not good.

It can only work if you are within the range of WiFi network. Place your wireless modem very close to the window, or on the windowsill so the device will get a signal.

You will need to buy an USB wireless adapter and then it will pick up your router. Thanks, Computer World

Looks like you have to hook up to the internet via an ethernet cable. I'm going to hold out for a wireless unit.

It has one WAN port which provides broadband access via xDSL/Ethernet/Cable. If the output from your fiber optic modem is compatible with xDSL/Ethernet/Cable, then it should work. I have used it successfully with a DSL modem running in bridge mode.

This wireless router has Ethernet connections only, which means that you'd have to connect it to your cable/fiberoptic modem provided by Comcast. If you already have a modem with Ethernet output, then this should work just fine for you.

i havent been able to connect it to the internet because i dont have a router close to it and is to long to run a wire to connect it to the modem. i need to get some kind of wireless adapter to connected, i gess

I actually don't know how Comcast Wifi internet works. I think this modem only connects through Comcast cable. You will need another router to have wireless signals.

It needs a wired ethernet port, and it can be configured (browse to http://v-configure.com) with a fixed IP address or it can accept an IP from the DHCP server between it and the internet. A cable modem works as that upstream DHCP server, no reason a wireless device won't work. I have one from clear.com and it behaves just like a cable modem.
