FRONT PANEL

The front panel has two lighted indicators and a

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button.

The Power/Internet light will be on and solid

when your Gateway is turned on, connected to

the Internet, and functioning normally.

The Wireless light will be on when your Gateway

Wi-Fi is turned on.

For additional information on the front lights

and error indications, refer the

Troubleshooting

section in this Guide.

The WPS button is used to initiate Wi-Fi Protected Setup. This is an

easy way to add WPS capable devices to your wireless network.

When WPS is initiated from your Gateway, the wireless light slowly

ﬂashes white for up to two minutes, allowing time to complete the WPS

pairing process on your wireless device (also known as a wireless client).

When a device begins connecting to your Gateway using WPS, the

wireless light rapidly ﬂashes white for a few seconds, then turns solid

white as the connection completes.

If there is an error during the WPS pairing process, the wireless light

ﬂashes red rapidly for two minutes after the error occurs.

The WPS button can also be used to reboot the router. To perform a

soft reboot, press and hold the WPS button for at least 10 seconds.

information about your device, including the default settings for the

Gateway administrator password. The label also contains a QR code

that you can scan with your smartphone, tablet, or other camera-

equipped Wi-Fi device to allow you to automatically connect your

device to your Wi-Fi network without typing in a password (requires a

QR code reading app with support for Wi-Fi QR codes).

MOUNTING THE GATEWAY TO A WALL

For optimum performance, the FiOS Quantum Gateway is designed to

stand in a vertical upright position. Verizon does not recommend wall

mounting the FiOS Quantum Gateway. However, if you wish to mount

your Gateway, you can purchase a wall mount bracket from the Verizon

FiOS Accessories Store at

verizon.com/ﬁosaccessories

.

If you are replacing an existing Verizon wall mounted router, you do

not need to remove the mounting screws from the wall. The existing

mounting screws will ﬁt the new bracket.

To mount your Gateway to a wall:

1.

Remove the foot by turning the Gateway upside down

and removing the single screw that holds the foot to the

Gateway.

2.

Slide the foot toward the front of the Gateway and pull the

foot from the holes. You may need to wiggle the foot slightly.

3.

You may use the wall mount bracket as a template for

positioning the Gateway.
