Business location router at home address
Business location router at home address
Hello, I understand your situation. You’re moving into an apartment that was once a gift shop, and Verizon is refusing to install home routers because it’s considered a business address. The first floor is a gift shop, while the second level is residential, but you don’t have access to any connection beyond what’s allowed for business use. They mentioned you’ll be notified when eligibility changes, though they didn’t know how long that would take. This sounds like a unique case. Could anyone suggest possible solutions? If you purchase a router yourself and set it up, will it work?
It seems they’re trying to stick closely to Verizon’s network, which can be frustrating. We moved between home and business settings multiple times, starting with residential, then switching to business, and back again—all in one house. It might help to chat with neighbors about their ISPs; it’s possible they all use business accounts. There’s likely a significant difference in pricing.
I avoid Verizon completely moving forward. I’m still puzzled about why my canceled service didn’t get closed after I told them to shut it down.
I can clarify. From what I understand, most of this involves companies. The confusing part is that a Verizon modem is already installed in the basement with an Ethernet connection to the apartment. They keep saying there’s “no internet,” and when I asked the owners they mentioned the previous ten attempts didn’t work.
