Don’t use frontiers shit router

r/frontierfiosneutral1

Right now it goes from the ont to my frontier router to my tp link router. Same path different non erroo router In use.

r/frontierfiosneutral1

Is your dial tone being made by the ONT or the Frontier router?

r/frontierfiosneutral1

The router that frontier supplies.

r/frontierfiosneutral1

So this is my next question, why keep the services from Frontier? Why not get a router that has VOIP capabilities, set everything up and port your number away from Frontier completely to a different p

r/frontierfiosneutral1

Mine too, that's why I wonder if since I'm using it just from that then I could loop to my home router and back to the frontier router.

r/frontierfiosneutral1

Connect your own router to a yellow port of the Frontier router. You can turn off the wifi of the Frontier router by logging in to it using the info on the bottom of the Frontier router. The only way

It works much better than the ISP garbage.

r/frontierfiosnegative1

Renting their routers and getting charged for it is terrible business for the consumer.

r/frontierfiosneutral4

I use my own router and just kept theirs in my closet. No extra fees at all.

r/frontierfiosnegative1

I dont want them to charge me for a bad router.

r/frontierfiosnegative3

Even if you have their router I tell people to remove it. Frontier would get mad at sales people for not adding it, we were basically forced to add it to every account.

r/frontierfiosnegative3

Wifi security by the ISP is a joke. Your router can provide better security.

r/frontierfiosneutral1

I use my own router but have theirs stored just in case they need it for troubleshooting. The install tech recommended this. I’ve had to use it once in like 5 years. No extra charges.

r/frontierfiosneutral1

Then they just send one of us field techs out there. We'll verify it's good thru the ONT then if we have time try to troubleshoot your router
