Ethernet ports on the back of your Verizon Router.
2. Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into an Ethernet
port on the computer.
3. Repeat these steps for each computer to be connected to
your Verizon Router using Ethernet. You can connect up to

CONNECTING a WI-FI DEVICE USING WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is an easier way for many devices
to set up a secure Wi-Fi network connection. Instead of manually
entering passwords or multiple keys on each Wi-Fi client, such as a
laptop, printer, or external hard drive, your Verizon Router creates a
secure Wi-Fi network connection.
In most cases, this only requires the pressing of two buttons – one
on your Verizon Router and one on the Wi-Fi client. This could be
either a built-in button or one on a compatible Wi-Fi adapter/card,
or a virtual button in software. Once completed, this allows Wi-Fi
clients to join your Wi-Fi network.
To initialize the WPS process, you can either press and hold the
WPS button located on the rear of your Verizon Router for more
than two seconds or use the UI and press the on-screen button.
You can easily add Wi-Fi devices to your Wi-Fi network using the
WPS option if your Wi-Fi device supports the WPS feature.
