I cannot access the FiOS Router’s Graphical User Interface? What should
I do?
If you cannot access the FiOS Router’s Graphical User Interface, make sure the
computer connected to the FiOS Router is set up to dynamically receive an
IP address.
I have an FTP or Web server on my network. How can I make it available
to users on the Internet?
For a Web server, enable port forwarding for port 8088 to the IP address of the
server and set up the Web server to receive on that port, as well. (Configuring
the server to use a static IP address is recommended.)
For an FTP server, enable port forwarding for port 21 to the IP address of the
server. (Configuring the server to use a static IP address is recommended.)
How many computers can be connected through the FiOS Router?
The FiOS Router is capable of 254 connections, but we recommend having no
more than 45 connections. As you increase the number of connections, you
decrease the available speed for each computer.
What is the default user name for the FiOS Router?
The default user name for the FiOS Router is “admin” (all lower case, no
quotation marks). When logging into the FiOS Router the first time (or after
restoring the FiOS Router’s default settings), the user is asked to create a new
user name and password. Enter the new user name and password, write them
down on a piece of paper, and keep it in a safe place. The new user name and
password will be needed to access the User Interface in the future.
