I have Verizon DSL WiFi and the D- Link router Verizon set me up with was very problematic. I used to lose my WiFi signal and would have to re boot ( disc from power and re plus in ) as many as 4 times in one day. I bought this Actiontec GT774WNV used on EBay and so far ( 3 weeks) I haven’t lost WiFi service at all ! 🤞🏻 Also my signal strength for my Ring camera went from poor / very poor 63 - 65 RSSI to ok at 69- 71 RSSI. Was well worth the $21. I got it for !

This is a great Modem/Router when using Verizon, they sent me a dlink with Verizon firmware on it and it was junk it dropped signal every single day and it was very aggravating to use. I imagine if you follow the steps and put dlink firmware back on it the dlink would be as good, but in doing that you loose any warranty with verizon. I am going to put dlink firmware back on it anyway that way when this actiontec goes out I will have a good modem/router to use again.

I have had one of these 4 running for 4 years and it is still going strong. It has decent range, I have weak spots at the other end of the house, but no drops in signal. Easy to configure. I bought this used unit to replace a sub-par DSL Modem for a family member and had his network back in operation in a matter of minutes.

I purchased the Actiontec because I was getting tired of the D-Link modem (that Verizon supplied with my DSL service) dropping the connection two or three times a day. I have not had any line drops with the Actiontec.

Of course, a router or modem is only as good as your service provider. It also depends on your service speed. For my purposes, this is an excellent device. I use it mainly for wireless devices such as cell phones, laptops & Xboxes. I have 2-3 xboxes running on this at times and there are very little issues. I receive high performance with laptops and cell phones. I did rate a little lower than 5 stars for all due to the reliability of the device. I have bought several of these over the years & occasionally I will get a dud. They're also not made to last forever. Mine have lasted 1-2 years. I use mine a lot though. I would definitely recommend this. It's a great product for what you're paying and if you do happen to get a dud, they're easily exchangeable.
This was a great improvement over my old DSL modem, and it includes wireless too. These new modems don't require much configuring. Just plug it in, and it configures itself automatically in a minute or so, and works!

I bought this unit to replace my DSL Extreme modem & my old wireless router that had poor wireless coverage in my home. Now I have one piece of equipment instead of two & the wireless coverage is great! I am on a dry-loop from Verizon land-line through DSL Extreme & my neighbor is on Verizon DSL service with this exact unit that is why I bought this unit! Verizon makes you buy a phone line to get DSL service, with DSL Extreme, if they are in your area, you save over $20 a month. What I like most about it is its wireless signal strength! There is nothing I dislike about it. I would recommend buying this product over getting the DSL Extreme offered modem from DSL Extreme at $17.99, because you still need a wireless router. People that have these for sale have changed from DSL to cable, U-Verse or FIOS, so there are some good prices on eBay. We only have DSL in our area, no cable or Verizon FIOS, so I am stuck with DSL at 3Mbps, but with this Verizon Gateway made by Actiontec I get good wireless streaming to my OTA TiVo box & my Amazon Fire TV box.Read full review
If you are a Verizon DSL subscriber, find out if this will be provided as a free upgrade, and if it is, grab it. Gone are the daily modem/router resets, the dropped wi-fi signals, and slow internet (although it still slows down during heavy traffic periods) that plagued our old D-Link and Westell modem/routers. Area coverage is also slightly better. A great upgrade you will not regret.

I bought this used for a replacement on the D-Link I bought directly from Verizon. The D-Link just kept cutting out and at first I thought it was just bad internet because of where I lived but after hooking up the Actiontec my internet reliability is so much better. I recommend anyone with a junky D-Link to switch to this modem/router!!!

This router works much better than the other ones I have had from Verizon. It does not have external antennas but the wireless signal is almost as good as my old one that had 3 antennas. My old one dropped the DSL line all of the time, but this one has not dropped it once. I would definitely recommend it to my friends. Dave
