My ONT is different that the one in the article. However, I was still able to implement the hack during an ongoing power outage. It worked like a charm. Thank you so much. This is the best hack ever.

I'm looking to do the same thing but i will be putting 4 t nuts on the end so that I can mount the dovetail jig to the end since my shop is a 1 car garage every large piece of equipment needs to serve multiple purposes. my miter saw stand also holds my thickness plainer.

I'd like to add another bit of information to this otherwise excellent article. Devices behind the gWifi are not pingable even after the static route is correctly set up. gWifi does not respond to ICMP pings on the WAN port and there is no option to enable it.

Thanks and great question. To my knowledge, the only way to get around double NAT through 2 firewalls would be to make the gWifi router your primary device facing the internet, no ISP router/ firewall, assuming you have Ethernet egress and can do that with your service. Doing what you're suggesting here putting gWifi in DMZ mode by the ISP router would work, but gWifi is still a NATing firewall and anything you would want to publish publicly would still need to be forwarded out from the private google network. The 2 firewall situation isn't really an advantage per se, more of a situational solution, altho my ISP router has for more advanced logging and configuration options vs the gWifi. It also provides me a way to direct connect devices to bypass the google mesh entirely which I like.

Great article. I do have a question though. Could we not setup 192.168.1.22 as DMZ address in the FIOS router and then avoid having to configure all those port forwarding rules? Would that work or is there any other way to avoid having to deal with all the port forwarding? Since G1 sits on the internal home network I don't see the advantage of the second firewall.

I've been looking for a thorough guide like this for a while. Really appreciate the work. I just got a pfsense firewall and am facing the many reported challenges of the double NAT with gwifi. Your guide squashes all of the complaints I've read. Many thanks!

noreply@blogger.com (Peter) — Sun, 30 May 2021 19:58:03 +0000

Hi JB, sorry for the delayed response. I'm curious if you tried this and if it worked. Assuming there are no WAN protocol limitations or deficiencies on the gRouter, you would just need FIOS approval/ authorization to add it to their network. There are also new laws in place that prevent an ISP from charging forever for a router like this, you might just look into buying it outright if you can. To answer your question on the firewall, absolutely G1 could do that assuming the features provided are good enough for you. The only limitation there would be the number of switched ports coming out of G1 but that could be resolved by adding a small external switch, if required.

This is a really great article even in 2021, so thank you. Here's a question for you: I recently switched from FiOS Triple Play to Internet Only. I am about to upgrade my FiOS speed and want to avoid their new deluxe ($180/yr) super-router. My hope was to connect my first GW Puck (G1) in my basement directly to the ONT ethernet cable, then also connect a switch to the G1 that connects to a few hardwired PCs in the house that don't have WiFi. Then all other WiFi devices would connect to Pucks G2-G4. Can I do that and if so, will G1 be a sufficient firewall for all devices, not just WiFi based ones? Thanks! JB

Awesome hack! My BBU quit working from the plug-in 48V PSU but still worked from the battery. I connected a 12V power brick to the battery terminals, swapped the blue and gray wires and now I have internet again until I can schedule to get the BBU replaced. Thanks!

Thanks! Honestly, the fence has become a bit of a problem on this saw with the quick lock/release. Getting the fence
reliably square after movement doesn't work so well without manual adjustment. I've tried to fiddle with the quick setting screw but others have this problem as well. Just adds another step and makes precision cutting something that takes more effort.
