OVERVIEW
./ OVERVIEW
Your Fios Home Router provides you with wireless connectivity
using the 802.11b, g, n, ac or ax standards. These are the most
common wireless standards.
802.11b has a maximum data rate of 11 Mbps, 802.11g has a
maximum data rate of 54 Mbps, 802.11n has a maximum data rate
of 450 Mbps, 802.11ac has a maximum data rate of 3.12 Gbps, and
802.11ax has a maximum data rate of 4.8 Gbps.
802.11b and g standards operate in the 2.4 GHz range. 802.11ac
operates in the 5 GHz range. 802.11n and ax operate in both the
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz ranges.
Note: 802.11 b is a legacy mode and is not recommended. Even
one 802.11b device connected to the network will slow your entire
wireless network.
The wireless service and wireless security are activated by default.
The level of security is preset to WPA2 encryption using a unique
default WPA2 key (also referred to as a passphrase or password)
pre-configured at the factory. This information is displayed on a
sticker located on the rear of your router.
Your router integrates multiple layers of security. These include
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2), and firewall.
