I have Verizon FIOS Residential with the Actiontec MI424WR router. To inprove connections with other computers in the house and for online gaming purposes, i double routed the Actiontec router to the my linksys WRT54G. I can no longer download because the linksys router blocks all my ports and they need to be forwarded. But, in order to forward my ports, i need to set up a static IP. I have heard numerous sources that Verizon FIOS Residential prevents you from creating a static IP, which was confirmed when i couldn't get my DNS servers from either /ipconfig or the ISP (i got hung up on!)

If anyone could help me either set up a static IP with FIOS or an alternative to get around my port forwarding problem, that'd be great. I'm dying without being able to download!

Thanks!
