Q: QuestionCan the Nighthawk BE6500 router be used to replace a FIOS router?

Asked 2 months ago by tintoys.

• A:Answer Yes, power down your fios modem/ont/whatever else you have form verizon plug the WAN port of your nighthawk into the ETH jack on your verizon modem/ont plug in the nighthawk power supply *important that nighthawk is connected before next step* now, plug in and turn all your FIOS gear (except the router, which you're no longer using) FIOS should automatically assign the nighthawk a public IP address when tit powers back up. The nighthawk should now act as a local dhcp router.

Q: QuestionCan I use an old Apple router as a range extender?

Asked 4 months ago by Ivan.

• A:Answer Yes, but if you plan to do any file sharing between your computers, it's time to ditch the apple routers. They stopped upgrading the firmware years ago. Windows computers won't even let you share files over them, due to the security risk.

Q: QuestionCAN THE NETGEAR - Nighthawk BE6500 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 7 Router create a separate SSID for a 2,4ghz band?. I have printers that only function with 2.4ghz and don't seem to be able to differentiate with multiband routers (e.g., some new Spectrum devices).

Asked 5 months ago by OHDUFFER.

• A:Answer Technically yes, but that's not the ideal way to solve this issue. Go into your Spectrum settings (probably 192.168.1.1) and ensure 2.4 and 5ghz are both on. Name them with different SSIDs if your devices are having trouble selecting the correct radio signal.
