A:AnswerI use this with a my whole house and it works. Get the 3 pack and it will cover the equivalent of 4500 square feet. With this setup I get signal out of my driveway and about 50 feet down the road. I even get good signal in my backyard to run Sirius XM from my phone.
A:AnswerI can’t speak specifically about Verizon router. I have used this system in 2 different houses with 2 different routers (MediaCom and Spectrum). If the Verizon router is land based, there should be no issue. It’s an easy set up and gives terrific coverage throughout the house.
A:AnswerNo. Google Wifi isn't compatible with 3rd party routers like your Comporium WiFi router to form a Wi-Fi mesh network. You can only combine Google Wifi and Nest Wifi to create a Wi-Fi mesh. If you're using a modem/router combo, a good workaround is to set up your combo in bridge mode and disable its Wi-Fi functionality. You can then connect the primary Google Wifi Point to your combo using an Ethernet cable and connect your secondary Google Wifi Points to it.

A:AnswerYou can use them with any router. With that being said, I wouldn’t suggest using both for wifi. You will create interference and degrade your connection quality. I would suggest putting your current router in bridge mode and simply using it to send the signal to the Google Wifi.
A:AnswerHaving a new modem means having a new source of IP address for your internet connection. Since there's a change in source, you will need to factory reset the Google Wifi and re-setup. Here's a guide on how to factory reset: https://support.google.com/wifi/answer/6246619
