Hi everyone,
I've read the sticky and have googled the question in a million ways. Still can't figure this out.
I'm returning to FIOS after a year away. I have a Nighthawk R7000P router. I have data over ethernet enabled from the ONT (according to the online Verizon rep). The ethernet cable is plugged directly from the ONT box to the WAN port on the router.
I only get an amber light instead of a solid white and an IP address will not establish. I've power cycled the router and the ONT a ton of times. I've gone through the online support that *claims* it will reset the ONT and the "Verizon Server". Nothing I do works.
The settings on the router are set to grap an IP over DHCP automatically. I factory reset the router just in case and still nothing.
The little lights by the ethernet port on the ONT box blink. The data light on the ONT box is solid. I'm at a loss here.
I don't want to call a tech over as. they'll try to charge me. I'm conisdering buying a Quantum router to figure out what's going on and then returning it, but I rather avoid that.
Any and all help is appreciated.
