Need even more coverage?
The Fios Extender is the perfect complement to your router.
Obstacles such as concrete walls and household appliances (like microwaves) can weaken or even block your Wi-Fi signal. That's why even the best routers may need some help extending their range.

What is Wi-Fi 6E?
Wi-Fi 6E offers the features and capabilities of Wi-Fi 6—including higher performance, lower latency, and faster data rates—extended into the 6 GHz band. In other words, Wi-Fi 6E provides a new band of Wi-Fi spectrum operating on the 6 GHz frequency that leverages the advanced speeds available with Wi-Fi 6 (which brought 802.11ax support). The 6 GHz band provides up to seven different 160 MHz wide channels to use while the 5 GHz band only has two.
When should I use Wi-Fi 6E?
If you have a Wi-Fi 6E device and are experiencing slower speeds in the 5 GHz band, we recommend you enable Wi-Fi 6E. The Wi-Fi 6E band uses WPA3 encryption and will switch your primary Wi-Fi network to WPA3 when turned on. If a device with WPA2 encryption is connected to your primary network when you turn on Wi-Fi 6E, that device may disconnect. If so, you can connect it to the IoT network which uses WPA2 encryption.
Does my Verizon Router support Self Organizing Network (SON)?
Yes, it is supported by default and can be managed within the My Fios app, My Verizon, or locally on the router. Please visit verizon.com/sonsupport for more SON information.
What kind of security comes with my router?
The Verizon Router comes with Home Network Protection. HNP is activated through the My Verizon App. Once a customer activates Home Network Protection, it will actively block malicious sites from reaching your devices. This includes websites known to contain viruses, malware, and other malicious content.
Using Home Network Protection to block these sites reduces the risk of computers and devices on your network from accidentally becoming compromised.
Home Network Protection uses a McAfee technology called Global Threat Intelligence (GTI) to identify dangerous websites. The protection works as follows:
GTI constantly monitors websites around the world for malicious and dangerous content.
When malicious content is found on a particular website, GTI 'flags' the site as risky.
When any of your devices attempt to visit a website, Home Network Protection checks that the website is not on the 'risky' list.
If the website is risky, Home Network Protection blocks the device from accessing that site.
GTI is an always-on, always up-to-date service that protects your network and devices from all known and emerging threats in real-time.
