Trying to setup my new Deco with Verzion Fios (bridged mode)
Hello all i tried calling verzion for help but i was told that they arent allowed to help me put my router into bridged mode and would have to setup a 3 way call with verzion and some other company in order to get this done, so im hoping someone here can help me and i can avoid all that.
I have done some googling searching so i have the general idea of what needs to be done, except i must be missing something because i can't get my deco to connect to my g1100 after i change the settings to bridged mode.
Here is what i did so far:
I unplugged the ethernet wan which runs from the ont, as well as the moca(coax) and had 1 ethernet lan cable running from my modem to a computer so i could configure its settings. I then followed this guide to put my modem into bridged mode: https://forums.verizon.com/t5/g1100-bridging-guide/bd-p/g1100-bridging-guide
Once that was all complete i unplugged the lan cable running to the pc and plugged the lan cable into my new xe5300 where i attempted to begin its setup but the setup kept failing. Im assuming im missing a step some where inbetween here. if anyone could help me i would greatly appreciate it.
