You're questioning whether the ROG Rapture GT-AC2900 is worth the investment compared to your current setup, especially since you already have a Verizon Fios router. It's a fair concern about spending on a device that might not offer significant improvements. Consider evaluating Asus routers if you're looking for better performance or features.
As long as the Verizon Fios setup requires just a router and omits a modem, any solid-quality router will outperform the one the ISP supplies. I haven’t seen an ISP router that works well.
The setup involves placing the fiber cable outside in a Verizon box, connecting an Ethernet cable to the router, and then extending the internet connection throughout the home.
Yes, it seems router-ready. The only connection from outside to inside is an Ethernet cable.
Choose Cat6 or higher RJ45 and connect the router. Make sure it delivers the speeds and coverage you need.
