Verizon is offering customers with existing non-committed 100/100 plan a free upgrade to 200/200 plan for the same monthly cost of $39.99 without additional commitments.
To receive this free upgrade, login to MyVerizon dashboard
here [verizon.com]. Then click "Order Now" under the black "mix & match on Fios" tile. Click your existing 100/100 speed, then click "More Speeds" and select 200/200 for a month cost of $39.99.
Complete the order and you'll now have double the speed for "free".
Please note that if your G1100 or G3100 router is connected to the ONT via COAX, your order will not be processed unless a technician visits your location to switch it over to Ethernet. COAX on the ONT only supports speeds up to 100/100 and anything faster will require the router to be connected directly into the Ethernet port on the ONT.

Side note: when you only have Internet or Internet + Phone plan you can rewire your system (from ONT) from COAX to Ethernet by yourself and then contact the Verizon (chat works) to switch the system (again, from COAX to Ethernet). See more info here: (https://forums.verizon.
1) I still have 8 months left on my 2 year contract. I can see the 200mb offer for 39.99. If I chose this, what would happen to the 8 months left? Would that immediately cancel out and I would go 39.99 a month no contract?
2) I have the G1100 modem/router and I'm pretty sure it's connected through coaxial. I have the 100mb plan and when I run speedtest.net it goes up to 110mb. Would I be capped at this speed even if I spring for the 200mb?
2) Your 200/200 plan will not activate until the ONT is switched to Ethernet, as the Verizon systematically shuts down the COAX port on the ONT on any plans higher than 100/100. Discussing theoretical maximum of COAX on 200/200 is moot as the the system does not allow you to test the connection speed on COAX with 200/200.

Was just about to pull switching game to since contract ended in March and cost went up extra 50%.

So it sounds like I would have to call Verizon to do the upgrade as they won't just send a tech out without some upgrade (unless I paid a service fee)?
Not sure if this deal is even available with a rep on the phone.
