Installing Verizon Wireless Internet Service Yourself

One of the most attractive features of Verizon wireless internet service for your computer(s) is that you do not need to wait all day for a ?Verizon guy? to show up and install it. You install the wireless internet service yourself. You will need about an hour to put it in and fire it up, more or less. You don?t have to be a geek in order to understand the directions, as they come with incredibly easy instructions. If you can?t be bothered to install Verizon wireless internet yourself, then you can call Verizon and they will send a ?Verizon guy? out to you.

Did The Mail Come Yet?

You have to sign up for Verizon wireless internet service online or by calling them on the phone. You probably won?t have to look very far for Verizon?s phone number ? they advertise very heavily. Ideally, you should already be hooked up to the internet via cable or dial-up in order to install Verizon wireless internet yourself. You will then get a lot of instructions in your email, including a notice of when your package was mailed and what tracking number it is.

You then wait for the compact package to arrive in the mail. Save all the packaging and any printed matter inside, just in case you have to mail everything back to Verizon. If you can?t get hooked up to Verizon wireless internet for whatever reason, you get a full refund (minus shipping charges). It?s very rare when you can?t hook Verizon wireless internet up to your computer(s).

Pop In The DVD

In your package, there will be a DVD that clearly gives the installation instructions in big print and big drawings. You will need to unhook your computer (and your land line phones, if necessary) from dial up or cable. You then need to hook little square plastic devices onto your phone lines and to your computer.

You will need to unhook your old modem in order to install a new modem. This involves unplugging it from the electrical outlet and then unhooking it from the back of your hard drive. Take your time to negotiate the tangle of wires. Nothing will explode if you pull out the wrong wire.

The Verizon package will include wires of different colors that do different functions. If you are color blind, you might have difficulty with this part. One color wire hooks the modem to the computer, another to your phone jack and another to the electrical outlet. Follow the DVD instructions, take your time, and things should work out.
