✅ How To Add A Router to Verizon 5G Home Internet Gateway - ASK-NCQ1338 And Asus Aimesh RT-AC88U
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2022
- Need to configure a router to work with Verizon 5G Home Internet? Here's how I setup the ASK-NCQ1338 gateway to work with my Asus Aimesh system (main router is a RT-AC88U). The newer ARC-XCI55AX cube gateway is very similar to setup but the interface is different. I discuss how to setup DHCP server, DMZ, IP passthrough, static IP address, firewall, etc to get it to work together the most robust way.

Do you have an update for the main Asus router in your video? Amazon is saying it's no longer available. Thank you again for your informational video.
thanks a bunch for the video NT. I had recently got an asus router and was experiencing disconnects every so often along with slower speeds. I didn't expect both of my issues to be addressed in this video but I'm so happy they were. keep up the amazing work :)
OMG - this video is GOLD. I got Verizon Home LTE about 6-8 weeks ago and immediately connected it to my existing network using passthrough. It worked okay, but I had off and on connectivity issues and even worse - DNS issues. While browsing on my Apple computers, I would get frequent DNS (sites not loading or not found) issues. It was driving me crazy. After following Nater Tater's advice, my internet is now working great. Thank you! BTW - I have an "ASK" device. So the UI was different. But I eventually figured out how to turn off DHCP after reseting the router from passthrough mode.
Good to hear
Just wanted to say that your are an absolute goat for this. Only video I found with valid information on the pass through issue as well as 3rd party router speed issue. My RT-AX82U now works seamlessly for heavy task like gaming and streaming with no hitches. Verizon should make this public knowledge but Im happy you did. Cheers🤙🏽
Glad I helped!
Thanks for the video! Worked perfectly to transition to the Verizon box from our other modem. Thanks so much!
So much goodness came out when I turned off the DHCP on the Verizon router I was going so fast felt like a flying carpet!! Thank you for the tip the speed really increased when I did this.
Great to hear!
You really rock, I was just looking for a video like this.
Thank you so much for this video! You had no idea lol I almost return the V gateway :P It works great now, thanks a lot for details step by step. I have the tp link mesh system, the speed is not as good as before (with spectrum), but def better than using V gateway as router. I wish I can show you the speed test screenshots. Anyway, thank you again :) and Happy New Year!
You're welcome, HNY!
Cool vid! All the acronyms you were using remind me of my A+ and N+ training from 11 years ago. You sounded like my teacher.
Thanks for watching!
HI Nate, THANK YOU! I was having the same speed issues using IP passthrough on an Inseego 5g M3200. With your help, I've managed to hook the M3200 to my router, and now getting fast 5g speeds. Thanks again!
👍 great
Outstanding...Super helpful. Need help deciding which Tater is right for me.
Thanks, I was able to set up my wireless router with your recommendations!!!
Great to hear!
Hi Nater, Thanks for the great info, I'm trying to configure my verizon internet to get speeds that its advertised to. Currently its running around 25-35 mbps and its such a bummer.
If I utilize the setting you mentioned (disabling DHCP), along with my own router, would I be able to achieve higher speeds? Or am I essentially capped at what I'm currently getting?
Nate, thanks for the video. I just used it to setup my Arc with my ASUS.
Sweet!
Excellent explanation and a fantastic video. I learned more from your video in fifteen minutes than I did scouring the Internet for hours on this subject.
So thanks!
Question, if I want to use the same Asus router and Verizon 5g internet gateway as shown in the video, how do I set it up so I can use the Verizon 5g gateway as a wifi router for the house and the Asus for my garage 100ft away. I have cat6 between the two locations.
Thanks in advance for any information you can pass on.
You could do that but I'd suggest getting a 2nd Asus router instead and run a AiMesh setup that would allow seamless wifi switching for your devices. Meaning they would connect to the house or barn automatically and switch back and forth based on which has better signal. Here's how you'd add a router to your barn after following this video to add the first Asus. ruclips.net/video/5kse94JM0IA/видео.html
I would like to add that I noticed with the ASKEY Verizon cube that it does get very warm with the WIFI on, but also the cellular radio adds to that heat. I noticed when these boxes get a bit too warm it will cause them to reset or glitch out. This is why I want to well basically do what you did and have a secondary router handle all of the processing. I will follow some of the steps from your video, thank you for posting this for people with the ASKEY verizon cube.
Never had any heating issues with my cube, I know it has an onboard fan that kicks in I’d needed.
I'm using Verizon Home Internet with an ASUS AI Mesh system. Something I did was a ping test to determine optimal MTU Size. Anything over 1428 and my packets were fragmented, so I set my WAN MTU setting (Merlin Software) of my ASUS to 1428 and things are running very quick & smooth
Have the Verizon Home Internet and my own WiFi device that I hooked up to my Verizon Home Internet and it works great.
Hello Nate, I watching this video and I have a question. I have the latest T-Mobile Internet Gateway the Sagecon Fast but it does not allow us to turn off DHCP on the Gateway as in the Verizon one that you are using in the video. So they question is, Do I setup my Linksys Mesh Router (MX4500 model) as Static IP as you have shown in the video with your ASUS Router? Do I turn on DMZ on my Linksys router since this is not an option on the T-Mobile Gateway?
Interesting about that IP passthrough glitch I have noticed sometimes the Verizon cube will reset at night but my eero pro just temporary disconnects then reconnects when Verizon boots up.. could be something other than the glitch you mentioned but I have no issues with ip passthrough tbh I usually reset the gateway once every other day because I noticed that speeds slow down sometimes and maybe I'm paranoid about de prioritization
Thanks so much for this... The newer Verizon Internet Gateway (FSNO21VA) router has an option to amiable IP Passthrough with a single click. It will disable Wifi, DHCP etc. I am using a Sonicwall TZ470 Router. For the Network Connection Interface for the Verzion WAN, I had to select DHCP instead of a Static IP from the Verizon for it to work.
wondering what adjustment i can make to my tplink deco m9 plus mesh and/or 5g home base (arc version) being used together. before, the mesh extended our prior hotspot signal & speed well through the house, but now when the mesh is coupled with the 5g home base, dl speeds are way down to 50ish on the other end of the house, instead of 300’ish when in the room with the equipment. it just isn’t broadcasting the speed very far. the deco is a foot away from the home base, with both being on one end of the house (best speed location). any ideas to help get the faster speed to travel throughout the 2000 sq ft house?
Can you please make a video for the ARC-XCI55AX model? I can not find the IP passthrough in this model.
Are these settings also ok for gaming purposes? I have 2 series X that have 400+ ping spikes. But only started recently. Any tips? I have a nighthawk ax3000 but I’ve never tried this.
Thank you for your video. I was wondering if I could ask you a few questions for assistance. I just set up my Verizon 5G Home Internet Gateway and I'm trying to do the Port Forwarding for my LTS Security System and IP Cameras. I went into the Advance Settings on the Verizon Gateway and attempted to set up Port Forwarding but had no success. I input my DVR iPv4 address for Port 80, Port 8000, and Port 8554 but it didn't work. Any suggestion?
I was wondering if I buy a router and connect it into the Verizon Gateway, then plug my Ethernet cable for my LTS Security System into the new router, can I then go into the router and set the Port Forwarding up in the router bypassing the Verizon Gateway. Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Ken
I was looking for any insights on connecting a Google Mesh Wifi router to the Verizon ARC 5G. I tried duplicating some of the settings described in the video on the ASK but have been unable to provide internet to the Google Mesh router.
Hello Nate, first I would like to say I have found your videos very informative. I wanted to ask about the IP passthrough glitch, I am not using a second router and my IP passthrough is off but I still experience the drop in internet connection multiple times a day. What I have noticed is when I one or more of my devices have been idle and then reconnects, it seems to cause ip conflicts and drops internet connection. I tried turning off ipv6, but I still experience the same issue. Have you experienced this issue at all, or have any suggestions?
it sounds like you may have competing DHCP servers (gateway and your router). try turning one of them off or changing the IP range so they dont overlap.
Great step by step guide. I really appreciate it. One question I did have however was how to get my router to recognize IPV6 coming from Verizon. I am using a Netgear ORBI RBR50 with the ASK-NCQ1338 you describe in the video. Internet is coming through just fine but I can't get IPV6. Any comments would be appreciated.
if you enable IPV6 passthrough in the verizon gateway and enable IPV6 on your Orbi it should work
What do you think is the issue with my deco x20 router? I get 100 mbps on it when I should get 300 like when I do with the cube
We have the ASK-NCQ1338E; I bought a static address from Verizon, which
I need because we tunnel between sites. I added the static address to the LAN;
turned off DHCP. Does the WAN output from LAN2 go straight into the WAN input
on my external router, or do I have to do something else? When I put the WAN cable from
LAN2 on the Verizon Gateway directly into the WAN my router, I get no internet.
Is the WAN address coming out of the Verizon Gateway, the static address, or something else.
Thanx!

Would this work with an eero mesh? I heard that the eero needs to be in bridge mode but i'm not knowledgeable about anything beyond that
Hello nice video I recently got a Verizon home internet. I am using my own netger nighthawk. I wanted to know what is a good setup for gaming that I have to do for the Verizon gateway?
I have the Askey Verizon cube router, I want to turn off the wifi in the Verizon cube because it causes it to get very warm. I just bought a D-link wifi router to hook to the Verizon modem so it can run all my wifi and LAN devices. Would I follow the same steps you did for this?
Can you do a video on setting up the Verizon home from your previous router that you’re mentioning in this video? Change your wifi SSID from your old WiFi to the new WiFi please!
Thank you for this! I just got Verizon Internet Via Gateway and a TP-Link AX1500 router, which should make the setup easier for me! :-)
Glad it helped
Thanks Nate this video is great!
I have the Arc cube though and it seems much different connecting to errors mesh. Any suggestions?
Erros mesh
Great information Nate. I have an older router I might use just to bone up on my networking skills. Great step-by-step guide. Very much appreciated.
Go for it!
@@NaterTater Going for it Nate. If I want to take my Gateway with me on the road, how do I roll back the changes? Just Turn off DMZ, turn on DHCP and turn on the WiFi Radios on the Verizon Gateway? Is there anything else I need to do? Seems like most of the changes take place on the Router Side. I'm using a Netgear AX1800 WiFi Router and so far have changed the IP to static using an IP in the range the Gateway is expecting and input values for subnet mask and default gateway. I also added in my favorite DNS which is the main reason I'm doing this.
Seems right
@@NaterTater thanks. Not as difficult as I thought. Always learning.
@@NaterTater Nate I was able to get it done in a round-about way using the GUI in the Beryl AX3000 WiFi 6 Router connected to the Verizon Arcaydia Gateway. All my Windows Computers have to connect via Ethernet only for some reason as the WiFi icon has an "x" with a white circle, however, no big deal for me as I have a Chromebook, iPhone and Android Phone that have no issue connecting to the Beryl. I turned off the WiFi radios in the Verizon Gateway and am good to go using Quad9 DNS now. I think I'll use my Netgear AX1800 Router as a Repeater in the house. Thanks Again.
Hi @NaterTater - I noticed the interface for the Verizon admin panel changed. Any chance you could do a walkthrough of this as well! Would mean a lot. I’d also love how to do port forwarding on this device if you had the chance!! 👀🎉
Thanks NT! I was a little nervous when I turned off the DHCP, but my router had no problem (after I put in DNS server addresses). One question, can I connect to the Verizon control login through my router, or do I have to do that through the other verizon port and with a static IP address set on my computer. I can get to it through it's wifi, but I plan to shut that off.
Yes, with IP passthrough the verizon gateway IP should be one digit higher than your router's WAN IP.
Nice, Verizon's modems have a much nicer, feature rich firmware, than T-Mobile's modems.
for sure...I wish t-mobile was configured differently in this regard for both the gateway and their CGNAT.
@@NaterTater can you do 1 on the version gstewsy to connect to the tplink Deco xe75 mesh router system it’s a duel setup but both routers are the exact same
@@NaterTater hi, nater tater. When you configure this to ur router are they still connected by Ethernet?
@@PBA8 yes
Is it illegal to change the imei number of a device? If it is how much so and also has anyone else done this?
Good Afternoon Nater Tater, I really appreciate your content. The 5g set up was such a big help.I had a question regarding the the pass-through to my router.Its a linksys MR7300 series, wifi 6. I have noticed that I showed connection, I get download speeds, but almost half of what the verizon receiver is showing when I check speeds on my router. Although sometimes the verizon app cannot show what my speeds are from the tower. There are times where load times take a bit longer on my desktop. My biggest concern would be devices not working properly, such as my IOT devices ( alexa home, wyze hub, wifi on my portable devices). They connect, but in the case of the IOT devices, they wont function properly, always cutting out or saying no internet. My Ethernet connection is stable. There was a 3 week period recently where everything worked with no issues. The this past week right back to issues I stated earlier. Hope you had a safe and happy holiday. Any help would be appreciated.
Trying to figure out the ipv6. So on the gateway I want to enable ipv6. Set my asus router in DMZ. Do I want to have ipv6 on the asus gateway turned on to passthrough mode?
Yes
Thanks Nate, I have a Nighthawk R7000 running FreshTomato. I managed to get this setup and running, but since FreshTomato is quite different from your routers UI I am not 100% sure that I did it correctly, although everything seems to work. Any tips would be great, or if you know of a guide for my exact combination of devices. Do you know if the Askey has its IP Passthrough working or not?
meh, if it works...it works right? The IP Passthrough does work now on the Verizon gateways but honestly if you dont NEED it, I would skip it. It makes it harder to log back into the gateway to change any settings or even see signal strength. Just use DMZ.
rgray. I have the Nighthawk R7000 too. I would like to keep using it. Can I merely plug a lan cable from the Verizon cube to my NIghthawk?? without all the fancy settings?
I have your same router and Verizon gateway. In addition I have a QNAP NAS and have not been able to get OpenVPN to work, thinking my issue is the Verizon gateway not forwarding my port. Appears to be blocked. Sounds like if I follow your Passthrough recommendation it will work. Do I need any additional firewalls other than the ASUS and QNAP to protect my device? I'm thinking VPN with Port Forward of an unusual port and very strong passwords will do. By the way, this is by far the best instructional video I've seen, and I've watched lots of them. Thanks you! I'm going to subscribe.
wow, I had a QNAP NAS prior too! I'm now NAS-less though. Your ASUS and QNAP have firewall features so I'd just make sure those are active an you should be good to go! You might try just the Verizon DMZ setting to your ASUS and then let your ASUS do the port forwarding. If that doesn't work then go the full IP passthrough mode on the verizon gateway. The reason being is once you do IP Passthrough on the verizon it makes it a little more difficult to manage the verizon settings (it's IP will be one digit higher than your ASUS's WAN IP).
do you know if we need to have the verizon white gateway device? is it possible to not have this device at all and just use our own router?
whats the problem with IP passthrough again? Is there a VRZ article ?
@Nater Tater Thanks for the video. I just got my ASK version in the mail today and in probably a mediocre part of house I was getting 340 / 20 speeds and I barely get 200 - 220 from Spectrum about the same up. Currently I have a AirMesh Asus Zen wifi QoS tuned for streaming as Im cord cutter. House is large and 3 levels and the Cube won't cover me. I also have an older Asus RT-AC87R non mesh that is QoS tuned for gaming for my son. My cable modem has 2 ports on it so It actually works great as a setup. Each router has it's own SSID.
I notice the VZ Cube has two ports on it as well. I have two different IP's for each router and what pitfalls will I have. The air mesh really needs to keep the IP series I have because of two items with static IP's The RT really can be any IP series. What pitfalls in setting this up will I encounter. I want DHCP to be handled on the two network routers I already have.
I forgot to mention the other option I would consider is using the Cube wifi with the gaming SSID but I would lose the great Asus QoS settings that I have optimized in that case.
@@briantelesh3745 no pitfalls. Will work great.
@@NaterTater It was so easy because of your video, I knew exactly what to do - 👍Thanks
Thanks for sharing!
I have a eero Pro router. Is there something different I need to do to convert the Verizon 5G in to a Modem or do I basically follow the steps you walked us through. Thank you for your video!
follow these steps. I personally would try the verizon without the IP Passthrough first and see if it meets your needs before turning it on.
Hi @ natertater can you do an updated video? The current layout on the Verizon gateway settings is totally different from the current video you have uploaded. I am currently using the AsK version of the gateway with my TP-Link deco mesh routers but I am having no luck getting it to work together. Please advise.
I have the same setup and cannot get the recommended settings Nate provided to work. I think maybe there is a setting conflicting on the deco side but not for sure. Could be user error too 🤷🏻♂️
Hi Nate, if turning off dhdp on Verizon, will there be an issue for my Verizon set top boxes since the set top boxes are assigned an ip? Thanks for the video. I’m planing to get an asus because the wifi antennas are disappointing on the cr1100a.
you'll need your Asus router to have DHCP on then (it is by default) so there's something assigning IP address to devices on your network. You can set the Asus wifi SSID and password to the same as the current Verizon gateway if you wanted (and turn off wifi on the verizon gateway). Then all your devices would automatically connect to the Asus without changing settings.
hey man just wondering if you have a recent video of the new ui and settings of the verizon gateway? i have this one and its now completely different?
im trying to port forward a couple ports for gaming.
I dont unfortunately
I have the AC1300 Asus Router. Do I need to reset it to factory default? Once connected as you show how is it shown on the network? Right now it’s seen as 2.4G:ASUS_A0_2G and the 5G. I have the cat cable plugged from a switch to a yellow port. I need to change that to the green port. I enjoy your videos.
Once connected your Asus wifi names will remain the same and you'd connect to them like normal. Hope that answers your question.
We have the Ask Verizon 5g box. Love the service however I am not by any means an IT guru. We about 20 smart devices that we would like to connect to the system in addition to our phones and watches and Alexa devices. We also need to extend this 5G internet to inside our pole barn that is about 400’ from our home.
We would appreciate your suggestions as to how to best to all of us. I’m anticipating that we need an additional router and some other equipment. Very open to any suggestions you have.
Hi Marley, I use an Asus Aimesh setup with a few routers, see ruclips.net/video/hIKZzCkbXDY/видео.html If the gateway covers your house good enough and you only need to add the barn you could just do the point to point wifi bridge and a new router in the barn for wifi there (barn router plugged into p2p bridge which is plugged into the verizon gateway at the house). Here's just the p2p bridge ruclips.net/video/NBDgrmSoTPA/видео.html
I have a Telstra 5G Home Modem can I do this with my router?
Thanks for the great video! Has Verizon updated their IP Passthrough since this video was made? You said the IP Passthrough function had some bugs.
yes, they keep releasing firmware updates for fixes
This is really helpful. I was reading that it’s best to connect the ASKEY in an upstairs floor by a window, instead of on the main ground level floor. Any truth to that. Concern is it will be “harder” to get connectivity from upstairs to rec room in basement.
Yes typically you get better signal higher and by a window facing the tower but it can vary. And you might get enough signal on the 1st floor to not matter. I have mine on the 3rd floor and hooked up to a Asus AiMesh sytem to get wifi everywhere.
Thank you! Turned off the Verizon wifi to use my router for wifi and gained 100mbps! From 160 to 260!
Did you follow all the steps just curious if it really works all way through. i got a eero 6+ mesh router/extender setup and want to make sure i set ip everything without issue.
@@wisdomb4086 all I did was turn off the wifi from the Verizon side
From the Verizon Gateway User Manuals for both ARC and ASK models, it appears that when you enable the IP Passthrough, the internet access thru WiFi and LAN1 connections as well as routing capabilities of the Gateway will be disabled. Should this be equivalent to physically go to the corresponding sections of web UI and disabling the 2.4 and 5.0 GHz WiFi radios and turning off the DHCP server?
Correct on the function of IP Passthrough but not quiet on the latter point. Firewall as well as sending your router the piblic WAN directly are some of the other aspects of IP Passthrough.
I will be getting the Verizon 5G Home Plus Gateway WNC-CR200A; thus, I wonder if you have a video for this other Gateway model. Thank you. 🤔
I dont yet. I need to get my hands on that new gateway!
Does this work with a Netgear Nighthawk cable modem/router combo? I have been having trouble trying to adjust the settings on both of these at the same time and can't get it to work.
what's the model number? if its a modem designed to work with your cable then it might not work.
Great video and instructions. I was about to return the Verizon Gateway because I thought it would not work with my Netgear Nighthawk router. Is your Asus router connected via wired to the Verizon Gateway?
Yes
@Nater Tater Thanks again for your response. Really appreciate you taking the time to help out the community. Will follow your instructions once the Verizon Gateway arrives in 2 days.
Hey Nate, thanks for these tips. I'm running an Eero 6 (not Pro or 6E) and a ASK-NCQ1338FA, but despite these settings (and trying IP Passthrough separately) I'm getting ~300mps at the modem and at the Eero (via both their own internal speed tests) but downstream wireless devices aren't seeing more than ~75mps. This didn't start this way either, all devices were getting the same throughput at one point with only the wifi antennas disabled (no other settings) and same before on Spectrum. I can't seem to get back to that original speed though despite a strong signal. Any ideas for the Eero?
UPDATE:
Current settings:
- DMZ turned on and set to my Eero
- UPnP turned on
- SPI Firewall disabled
IP Passthrough is currently disabled and DHCP is still turned on as I wasn't quite sure how to configure this on the Eero side. These settings have gotten me the best downstream speeds so far (~200mps) but still loosing speed going through the router it seems.
Turn off DHCP server on Eero
@@NaterTater Thanks for that tip. The settings don't appear to be 1:1 though. I can set my DHCP to Manual IP or Bridge mode. I'd rather not use bridge since I'd like to keep the features of the router, and Manual IP configuration requires a Subnet IP, mask, as well as an IP range which doesn't seem aligned with your tutorial.
The only setting close to your video I think is the ability to set WAN type to static IP which has IP address, Subnet Mask, and Router IP. However setting those values (IP to .254, the mask, and the Router IP to the Verizon gateway) throws an error in the Eero and it never saves. Not sure if any of this sounds familiar?
Matt, sounds like you're in the WAN settings on the Eero. You want to turn off the DHCP server in the LAN settting so the Eero doesnt assign IP addresses. What you are talking about is how the Eero gets it's IP address which is correct as DHCP/dynamic IP method but could also be static IP if you really wanted.
Is there any way to configure the settings on the Verizon 5g Home Ultra wide router to get a better gaming experience? I noticed when playing Call of Duty there are skips in frame rate. Idk if that's an Activision thing or is it on my end.
Mimicking what I do in this video should help
New to the channel I have a Verizon ask gateway I want to know I had moca with my Spectrum set up will it work with Verizon gateway any info really be get ty
Moca as in ethernet over coax? Yes that will work with the verizon gateway
Thank you! -- This is really helpful. For a long time I have wanted to get a router with better management software than what comes on the Verizon gateway. Currently, I'd like to try an ASUS router to have the ability to measure the amount of traffic on individual devices. Attaching to the existing gateway looks like an option. However, during my travels on the internet, I came across MoCA adapters and I was wondering if any one here knows if it is feasible to get rid of the gateway entirely and replace it with a MoCA adapter?
A MoCA adapter cannot replace a gateway, the adapter simply "converts" ethernet to run over coax cable and then converts it back to ethernet in a different room of your house that the coax cable goes to. Here's some alternatives to extend the network: ruclips.net/video/BEA61OK6hmc/видео.html
Thank you -- much appreciated!@@NaterTater
Would you be able to do one with the ARC settings? The setting a on it are a lot different than the ASK version.
yes, noted
I can't get my NAT type past strict. Any suggestions? I had the t mobile unit before. Love your content
are you on verion now? if so if you do dmz to your router and turn off the dhcp server on the Verizon gateway you should be able to get moderate NAT.
Ok I don't have a router yet. Any suggestions? I'm just rocking the white cube on strict Nat life haha
@@NaterTater hey thanks for the tip. Took a minute to figure out but my Nat is now open for just my Xbox. Thanks!
I have the wallmount 5g home internet. I get around 600-950 Mbps right next to it. When following the steps you mentioned my Asus Tuf-Ax5400 says I need to set up DNS on the client device. I tried both manual and auto DNS but I keep getting the same error. My speeds when connecting the Asus is only 370 but it has a great range.
And I forgot to mention a lot of the settings you showed aren't there on my portal. There is no IP pass through option. I only have the option to set the DMZ through the IP address and there is no IP address pool shown on there either.
Has anyone used a static address on the Verizon ASK-NCQ1338E in passthrough mode,
and got internet on your external router? If yes, did you have to use port forwarding
or DMZ? Or something else in the Verizon Gateway setup, to get it to work?
Thanx,
RJR
Nat - I have the new Version Business Internet Gateway, and I want to connect to my Peplink Max BR1 Pro 5G wifi/router. Can you do a detailed setup video for this setup? Thank you.....Terry
Terry, a couple options. One is to take the SIM card out and put it directly in the peplink (ruclips.net/video/mErn0bERoj0/видео.html) the other option is to just plug the verizon gateway into the wan port on the peplink and use it.
Hi Nate! I’ve had a ton of issues with my router. Getting 10-15 mbps download and 2 upload. Same model, ask-ncq1338fa. Any idea what to do about it?
are you just using the verizon cube or did you add you own router? What cellular signal do you get?
Nate, I just came across your channel looking for info on this topic - great video. I have a couple devices (e.g., a solar inverter that works better hardwired than using wifi to send monitoring data) hardwired to the gateway I'm replacing with the Verizon 5G gateway. I'm putting a Google Nest mesh router in front of the Vz gateway. Since I want to connect 2 hardwired devices plus my router, I plan to attach my router to one port on the Vz gatway and an enet switch to the other port for the hardwired devices. If I turn DHCP off on the Vz gatway, will it cause a problem for the hardwired device that won't be connected to my router and its DHCP? If so, can I leave passthrough off and DHCP on and DMZ on in the Vz router and have both the hardwired devices and my Nest router connected devices work properly? I would basically not be making the changes you suggested except turning the Vz wifi off. If this will work, I will check the speed to see if I'm having the degredation from dual DHCP you described. I may be able to live with the reduced speed, depending on what speed 5G provides. Thanks again for the detailed video.
why not connect your inverter to the nest mesh via ethernet? if you turn off dhcp on the vzw gateway you'll need to manually assign an IP to your inverter (which may not be an options in its configuration). if you turn on ip passthrough on the vzw gateway then only LAN2 will work, LAN1 will be inactive.
@@NaterTater I'd rather connect the inverter to the vz gateway rather than to the port on the mesh router so that it isn't on the mesh router network. My logic is (correct me if I'm wrong) that if the inverter's traffic is going directly to the gateway, my router's security will protect my PCs and other network devices from any bad actors that manage to compromise the inverter. Since I don't have confidence that SolarEdge is upgrading software on the inverter for security issues I'd rather keep it off of the network with my PCs and data. All the inverter needs is internet access to send data to their monitoring cloud. I don't need it on the same network. If I could connect the inverter via wifi, I'd just put it on the guest network on my router for isolation, but that isn't an option on the inverter.
Apart from possible speed degredation from two DHCP layers, does it sound like the configuration will work with passthrough off and dhcp off on the Vz gateway? If so, I will hook it up and give it a shot. I am set up this way with my current AT&T Uverse gateway. I'd have to verify, but I think it has DHCP and I know wifi is turned off on the ATT gateway.
@Alan G yes that should work. Some higher end routers allow you to create a vLAN for things like smart home items. Basically like a guest wifi network but can be wired clients too.
@@NaterTater Thanks much for the quick replies. I will hook it up and see what happens. I don't think the Google router has vLAN. They may on the new mesh they just released. Unfortunately, they don't offer upgrade or mix/match with the mesh points I already have so I'm keeping the existing router for now anyway.
I have Verizon Gateway ARC and need to extend the range wirelessly. I have Ubiquity AirCube AC and I am fine with having 2 SSIDs. Is it possible with these devices?
yes, ideally you disable the wifi on the ARC though and enable DMZ to your AirCube or do full ip passthrough to the AirCube. Those are all options on the ARC.
I live in a 3 story condo. I will definitely need to link it to my tp link deco mesh system.
yes!
Hi Nate:
I have the new ASC version of the Verizon cube and am having trouble setting up my Asus AC2900 router. Have you created a video on the ASC version? I have fallowed the video for the ASK box but am not getting any internet.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
Randy
No, sorry
Ive read a lot of updated post saying the you cant use your own router with the new verizon 2024 cube
Thte latest firmware has two DMZ Host options...one for IPv4 and one for IPv6. Should I flip on both? Or better yet...anyone know if the IP Passthrough feature actually works now without having to reset the Gateway every day or two?
My personal opinion is to keep your house/LAN as IPV4. Most people dont have a need for IPV6 and the complexities that come with it for home use.
There was a recent firmware update for the Verizon Home Gateway. I was wondering if the IP pass through bug was fixed. I’ve been using the DMZ feature that you point out in this video, but my connection has been freezing up ever since the update and I’m not sure why
I haven't had that issue but it sure is annoying when they break thing that were working fine! Let me know if you see a trend/root cause.
I have a question I don’t have the cube gateway I have the one where you put the gateway on the window and when I went into the settings for that gateway I don’t see ip pass through and ip address pool does that mean I can’t use my own router?
You can still use your own router. If you want a full bridge mode there is a hidden ethernet port under the circular plastic mount. Needs power over ethernet, search reddit for it.
Hi. not sure if you have answered this in any of your other videos or if you even have an answer to this question. i just recently got the verizon home internet a few months ago. it has worked great for what i need it for. but i am have a problem with it that not even verizon seems to know how to fix. every time i use streaming services i have issues with that streaming service not showing the correct location for me. it usually shows cities hours away from me. is this a wifi issue and if so can it be fixed?
Yes thats not uncommon with cellular internet. Its where your connection exits the Verizon network and to "the internet". One way you can change it is using a VPN with a server nearby (hopefully one close enough for your streaming services). Another option is calling the streaming service and explaining the issue.
Nate, I own or use the gateway from T-mobile, which you helped me use the script some months ago to take the wifi off. The problem I am having with that gateway is it doesn't play well with my router as a backup WAN. It's probably because of the lack of control the user has over the gateway with it being double NAT configured with my mesh router behind it. Does this ASK-NCQ1338 work ok as a backup WAN for you or are you just using it as a primary WAN? I have not been happy with T-Mobile's gateway instability and am going to be giving it back to them to try something with more control available, which this Verizon model appears to have. Regards..
yes the Verizon works well for all you mentioned
Do you still recommend doing IP passthrough a few months later?
I did try IP passthrough with my Deco with DHCP off and the settings you suggested, and it made the gateway interface inaccessible. I had to factory reset it.
It works without it on though.
Having issues and have to factory reset myself. Did you get everything to work? I’m so lost.
@@AllGood_2024 I had to just run it the way Nater Tater has it. Passthrough does not work at all with DHCP off-at least not with the Deco.
All other settings (Static IP, DMZ etc.) worked
Great info, I used this video to set up my Eero Pro 6 and it has been running well. Any thoughts on the ping? I have experienced pings as low as 20ms and as high as 645ms with Verizon 5G home internet. Do you think it’s just a growing pain as the system continues to expand and it will get better or is this just something I will have to deal with having a 5G internet?
Some of it is growing pains but typically cellular is worse and less consistent then a hardline ISP. mmWave 5G offers promise with very quick ping but that's not feasible over a broad area.
@@NaterTater I was very optimistic based on the price ($35/month) but the ping is killing me, having only spectrum in my area, NE Ohio, I figured I would give it a try, love your videos and thanks for the insight.
@@billkonic3596 Did you have any better luck going forward? Just trying this service out since i'm in a low offer area for services as well.
@@Anita-op5to I went back with Spectrum for now, with the 5GUW being fairly new in my area, I’m hoping as they add 5G UW in the surrounding area it will get better in the future and can maybe look at it again in a year or so.
Hi! Is bridge mode the same as IP Passthrough? I have the LVSKIHP wall mount version and on the interface accessed through browser there is a button "Enable Bridge Mode". I would like to connect my own router to this device because it has much better range. I'm not too savvy on networking but doing my best to research.
Yes typically they are the same.
@@NaterTater Thank you for the fast reply!
Thanks but how do you hook up the Gateway to the router and my Optimum setup? That’s what I need to do. That’s why I’m bringing it back to the Verizon store. This stuff isn’t for a schnook like me to figure out,so I’ll let we’ll enough alone and keep paying Optimum’s outrageous fees.
how do you access the router menu - you were showing your ASIS screens. Can I google the name of my router and add some keyword to get connected to the right website, or are you getting to those router settings/screens by using a Windows setting somewhere? hope that makes sense.
For an Asus router you can go to router.asus.com if you are connected to it. Otherwise you can try 192.168.0.1 or look on the sticker on the bottom of the router for login info.
Would this process be the same for the Asus ZenWifi AX Hybrid? I followed this video and all of the Asus settings appear to be the same, but when I do some speed tests via wifi and ethernet connection to the Asus router, I'm getting slower than expected speeds. Maybe it's just a fluke and that's just the internet at that time, but when I run the same speed test on my Verizon phone (which I would assume is connecting to the same cell tower as the 5G Gateway), I'm getting about double the speeds as what I get when connected to the router.
You cant compare the phone to the home internet speed. To see if the Asus is slowing you down connect directly to the Verizon gateway (via ethernet or wifi) and run a speed test.
@@NaterTater Okay I ran some different tests via Ethernet connection and they seem to be falling in the same range. Thanks for the help!
Hi Nate, do you still gave IP Passthrough disabled? Thanks.
No, I run DMZ
I upgraded from Verizon LTE to Verizon 5G, I use eero MESH, I received a separate gateway but same model as LTE ARC-XCI55AX but I did not have the same setup options with page 192.168.... when I run speed tests with direct connect eero ethernet to gateway, they are double what I am getting on speed tests from a device. But I was satisfied for the most part, this was yesterday. This morning Eero was a fraction on speed test kbs ...any thoughts on what I might do? I disabled wifi on he gateway but that was pretty much all I could do. Thank you!
You can try setting your eero to "AP" or "Bridge" mode.
@@NaterTater ty you for your reply, setting in Bridge on eero I lose additional features. BUT, i reset everything and did this. I have the ARC Verizon 5G, it is 11/2023 and I have eero mesh system. I set up Verizon 5G and disabled wifi from the gateway. I plugged in my eero mesh system and for the last 24 hours things seem well. The discrepancy is in download speed, the eero wired is getting about 300 mbs whereas the wifi is about 160-210 depending on location. When I look at settings in Verizon gateway I notice there is a Bridge section and grayed out (but there is a check mark) are the wifi access points (5ghz; 2.4ghaz; & Ethernet), the status column says the wifi is disconnected but ethernet is connected. there is an IP passthrough option it too shows under status as 'connected' in green but it is not checked. Do you think this means my ip passthrough is on (just not checked)? Here is a link to the image I see, just note that the ip passthrough isn't checked in MY settings www.verizon.com/support/knowledge-base-301824/ Thank you!!
If you have apartment I don't need all that I just need the Verizon internet box right?
Correct
With the newer Verizon cr200a - are these instructions still valid?
the GUI did change as seen here: ruclips.net/video/ig3rdzzs7Jg/видео.html but the same concepts apply, just the interface looks different
What is best 5g modem to buy to use with Asus ROG Rapture GT-AX11000? Not sure what i need with my Verizon 5g home internet. Their gateway stinks.
Another great video. I'm one of those that probably wouldn't benefit from hooking the Asus router back up. The ASK Verizon gateway seems to be doing OK.
Strange thing though. I have A PBS Passport account which should allow me to watch local PBS programming in central Illinois. Ever since I hooked up the Verizon gateway, the app thinks I'm in Chicago which is 150 miles away. Because of this, I can't watch local PBS programming. Not using a VPN. Wondering if there's some sort of conflict going on that could be resolved by changing the Gateway's settings?
Unfortunately there arent settings to fix that. Its due to the fact that you exit the verizon network in Chicago thst PBS thinks you are located there. PBS can't "see" inside the verizon network to know where you are physically located. You can try contacting PBS and see if they can force a location. VPN can also work if there is one with a local server/host.
@@NaterTater
Makes sense. Thanks for the insight.
I recently got the Verizon, 5G Home internet with the ASK-cube. Speed is good but when I connect to my work VPN, speed dropped way down. My question is if adding a router and setup DMZ will will address the VPN (cisco Anyconnect) speed slowness?
Probably not. Try adjusting your MTU setting on the work VPN (or computer if you can't change VPN settings). ruclips.net/video/v2rOWgGuHBo/видео.html
Hello Nate, thank you for your informative videos. I have the new T-Mobile Home Internet and I have connected a Linksys Velop XM4200 mess wifi system and I am having the Wi-Fi speed slow down. What can I do in the Lynksys router setting to correct this. I have not turned off the T-Mobile WiFI radio.
For the fastest speed make sure your device is connected to the 5Ghz band from your Velop. You can turn off the DHCP server (or set it to AP mode) on your Velop and let the tmobile gateway assign IP addresses. There are other things to try but those would be step 1.
@@NaterTater Do I set the linksys Velop router that is connected to the Tmobile Sagecom Gateway from DHCP to Static IP?
@Carlos Roman no thats the WAN settings. Turn off DHCP server in the LAN settings or change the Velop to AP mode.
@@NaterTater Hello Nate, I watching this video and I have a question. I the latest Tmobile Internet Gateway the Sagecon Fast but it does not allow us to turn off DHCP on the Gateway as in the verizon one that you are using in the video. So they question is, Do I setup my Linksys Mesh Router (MX4500 model) as Statis IP as you have shown in the video with your ASUS Router?
@Carlos Roman no thats the WAN settings. Turn off DHCP server in the LAN settings or change the Velop to AP mode.
Hey Nate! really struggling with service on my ASK. Can i splice in antennas like on the t mobile device? thanks
Unfortunately not BUT you can get a new router: ruclips.net/video/3belU1bmEh0/видео.html

@@NaterTater Cool. Just curious, how does the chester stack against the Teltonika RUTX50?
I have a couple of Orbi satellite routers connect to my Xfinity modem right now, going to switch over to Verizon 5G home internet service in a couple of days. Hope the process of configuring my Verizon modem will be similar.
How was it? Any issues?
Great information for Verizon home gateway, would this be the same steps for the Verizon business gateway ?
Yes should be similar. I think often the main difference between home and business gateways from verizon is business ones are colored black.
@@NaterTater
I'll be getting my Asus AX55 tomorrow, should I set that up first or the Verizon business gateway?
@@stevenartea2824 verizon first.
I just got the straight talk home internet is there a way to do it also I have looked all over but can't find any
Its the same gateway as Verizon so same instructions apply.
I have the t mobile home internet and i just bought asus 82u. I have figured out most but the problem i have is latency is usually higher or 2 lower than my gateway and its no way for me to turn off the wifi and access other features
