I just bought a Chamberlain MyQ Garage and the instructions say to pressthe WPS button on the router. The Verizon router I have (MI424WR) has one, but it's not activated. The two possible Verizon upgrades are the Advanced Wi-Fi Router and the Quantum Gateway. Does either have a working WPS button? Since they sell the MyQ, you'd think they'd have to have one that does. But on a chat with a Verizon agent, I was told they don't.
Of course, this begs the question of why Verizon "detweaks" stuff. My router has a WPS button, but it's not activated. My cable box/DVR has a USB port, but it doesn't work by design. Why does Verizon deliberately make some of the equipment thwy sell less capable than the manufacturer's standard item?
And if I buy a third-party router, what capabilities might I give up?
