Using a Nighthawk XR 500 router with Verizon Fios tv

Hello,

 

So I have read some of the setup threads but I'm having a tough time getting the Fios tv Guide and OnDemand to function.  Maybe it's different with each router?

 

The ONT in my setup has an ethernet port.  I have an ethernet cable connected into the WAN port of my XR 500 router.  Then I have an ethernet cable going from one of other XR 500 ports into the WAN port of the Verizon router (G1100).

 

I'm able to watch tv.  And my PS4 works just fine.

But again, no Guide and no OnDemand.

 

The reason why I feel like I need the XR 500 router to remain as the primary is to take advantage of it's ability to GeoFilter servers when I'm gaming.

 

I'm certain I am really close here but that I'm like 1 or 2 steps away from fixing the On Demand from working.

I'm also strangely unable to log into the Verizon G1100 router.  Whenever I try clicking

http://192.168.1.1 I get asked to log into my XR500 router.

 

Repetitive thread, I am sure.

Please advise
