[Novalug] Removing the FIOS Actionec Router, replacing it with my router

I have successfully tested an Apple Airport Extreme, Apple Airport
Extreme Dual Band,  Netgear wndr3700, Linksys WRT54G (openwrt) ,
Linksys WRT54GS (openwrt), and Linksys E1550 connecting directly to
the ONT ethernet port.

Three Notes:
- When you plug in a new router to the ONT, it can take up to 30 min,
before FIOS sees the router.
- Your DHCP address changes about ever month or two, so you will have
to reconfigure your internet facing static address for your routers.
- Verizon FIOS still has not IPv6 and is blocking protocol 41.

Good luck!
