Important reminders about operating your Verizon GT784
gateway in Bridge Mode:
Once you have completed configuring your Gateway to Bridge Mode it becomes a pass
through device and will no longer function as a router. All Wireless functionality has been
disabled and you will no longer be able to access the Gateway GUI Interface (192.168.1.1).
To restore all router and wireless functionality a factory reset of the Gateway will be
required. To perform this function, hold in the reset button on the back of the gateway for
at least 20 seconds.
Should you choose to use your gateway as a wireless router there are a few important facts
and benefits you should know:
– The Verizon GT784 is one of Verizon’s advanced wireless 802.11N capable routers
– You can connect up to 4 wired devices; if currently using a 3rd party, non-Verizon router
you can now eliminate it and use your new Verizon router for all of your internet needs
– The wireless 802.11N technology delivers faster wireless speeds with improved
WiFi and more memory and processing power
– It Delivers a more secure wireless connection using WPA/WPA2 wireless security
• All wireless devices connecting to the Verizon GT784 must support WPA/WPA2 in
order to connect
• WPA/WPA2 is not backward compatible with the less secure WEP wireless security
• It is recommended that all wireless devices be upgraded to support the more secure
WPA/WPA2 wireless security
• If unable to upgrade the wireless device to WPA/WPA2, the router must be
re-configured to the less Secure WEP wireless security in order to connect all
wireless devices
If replacing an existing wireless device you will need to establish a new wireless connection
to your new wireless device; your old connection will no longer work.
The Network Name (SSID) and Key/Passphrase are located on the sticker which is located
on the back of the modem.
