3.0/ OVERVIEW
Your Verizon Internet Gateway provides you with Wi-Fi connectivity
using the 802.11a, b, g, n, ac or ax standards. These are the most
common Wi-Fi standards.
802.11b has a maximum data rate of 11 Mbps, 802.11a and 802.11g
have a maximum data rate of 54 Mbps, 802.11n has a maximum data
rate of 450 Mbps, 802.11ac has a maximum data rate of 3.12 Gbps,
and 802.11ax has a maximum data rate of 4.8 Gbps.
802.11b and g standards operate in the 2.4 GHz range. 802.11ac
operates in the 5 GHz range. 802.11n and ax operate in both the
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz ranges.
Note: 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g are legacy modes and are not
recommended. Even one such device connected to the network will
slow your entire Wi-Fi network.
The Wi-Fi service and Wi-Fi security are activated by default. The
level of security is preset to WPA2 encryption using a unique default
WPA2 key (also referred to as a passphrase or password) pre-
configured at the factory. This information is displayed on a sticker
located on the bottom of your Verizon Internet Gateway.
Your Gateway integrates multiple layers of security. These include
Wi-Fi Protected Access, and firewall.
