Verizon’s FIOS fiber-optic broadband Internet service commonly uses Actiontec routers that are branded with the Verizon logo. One example of this is the MI424WR that also handles Wi-Fi wireless Internet connections. The router’s security can be configured by the user including Network Address Translation (or NAT). NAT translates IP addresses to a valid public address on the Internet. This adds security because IP addresses of devices on the network aren’t sent over the Internet. You can change the type of NAT to static. Writer Bio
