No Internet/Weird Solution Any idea Why?
Okay so I have this strange issue with my FIOS recently. So My initial setup which worked perfectly fine for the last 2 years just stopped. Here is what i had. ONT -> Cat5e -> XR500 GR -> Mai...
I just updated the firmware after I got my internet back.Thinking it may have been a compatibilty issue. When it sstoppped working it was the second most recent Firmware.
I also reset the ONT that did nothing. When I swapped the FIOS Quantam Router to the XR500 I cloned the MAC Address becuase I read somewwhere that verizon sometimes dosent like not seeing there devices. I wonder if that may have been it. But since I could not get to the NetDuma Dashboard I could not test that.
Has the XR500 got a static IP or anything like that? Any unusual settings that could be throwing things off?
I don't think that MAC address cloning could be necessary.
