This is more of a general question but I just got rid of my old cable internet provider and switched to Fios. My old service required that I use their stupid lovely modem and router. Verizon is letting me use my own Asus router. Their ethernet cable from the ont plugs directly into it which owns so much.

Anyway with my old ISP my Asus router (which I used in conjunction with their lovely modem router thing) freaked out on me the other day and it changed the Asus router's IP to 192.168.2.1. Previously it was 1.1, not 2.1.

This messed up a few things for me like my wireless printer, ps4 hack server hosting, and some other minor stuff. Not the end of the world but it made me question: when Verizon shows up today, should I change my Asus router back to 192.168.1.1? Or am I better off leaving it as 192.168.2.1? Are there any negatives to that?

Sorry if this is a really dumb question, I am a complete moron with networking and ip stuff.

you can just leave it as it is, the ip (subnet really) of the router is arbitrary, just has to be in 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x

lol of course, I have two RT-AC68Us (one is a repeater). Luckily it looks like a firmware update resolves it.

Thank you! Now with this new Fios service my personal Asus router changed its IP to 192.168.1.1. Should I change it back to 192.168.2.1? Just to avoid IP conflict complaints in the future or something? I don't understand any of this stuff.

I might be confused about your setup here, but I imagine you would have fibre box -> router -> repeater (wired?)
What I would do is have just one router (the first one) acting as a dhcp server. Usually you would just have that as 192.168.1.1 because most consumer routers use that. Your repeater could then have any address in 192.168.1.x.
Sometimes repeaters will instead connect in a different way (with NAT and their own dhcp server) so then your network on the repeater could be on a different subnet like 192.168.2.x.

If it is working right now the best thing to do is leave it alone lol

get one of those usb linux jobbies that installs grub and then install windows as well (maybe need to copy a working windows partition idk since the installer won't work). then use grub to load windows

e: disclaimer: no idea if this will work
