I decided to not fight the way that Verizon has their ActionTec router set up. What I did was I put a second router behind the ActionTec router. I then made the ActionTec router form a DMZ between it and my current Buffalo router. By doing this, Verizon now has full control of their ActionTec router to do whatever it is that they want to have done. And I can control the inside of my network using my own router.

This is a blog mostly about techie things, what I am doing to my apartment network on the cheap, IOT, 3D Printing, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, ESP32, ESP8266, Home Automation, Personal Weather Stations, Things That Go Bump in the Night, and some side issues that need discussing. Remember, sometimes the journey to an end is as much fun as the goal achieved!
