Can anyone give me step by step instructions to get the second router up and running? Please help!
I wish to set up my second router as a new static connection so my WiFi devices may connect to that network instead of the Actiontec's. I do have Fios TV, so I need a solution that will not interrupt the other services.
I used this set of instructions:
http://smallbusiness.chron.com/set-up-second-router-verizon-fios-60493.html
I put the starting IP as 192.68.1.3
I got up to the input New Static Connection and input 192.68.1.2 and the MAC address of the new router.
When I press Apply, I get the message,"The IP address 192.68.1.2 is illegal for any of the connections subnets." The first time it failed, it stated that the address was used, but now I get this message every time.
I also attempted this set of instructions:

But I only got up to #6 where I connect to the new router and enter admin. I was unable to access the new router. My browser states that there is no internet connection.
Note: Verizon support has been no help so far. I am at wit's end.
