Grego, I'd say just go for it. I am planning on doing the same thing and came here looking for the same thing. I actually was concerned about whether I move the ONT and if something goes wrong then would Verizon still protect the components/installation to reinstall/setup everything to work correctly again.
I already opened the whole ONT once and examined what is inside. The main thing you need to take care of is the Fiber connection to the ONT. I don't plan on disconnecting that when I go to relocate mine. If you support both the ONT and Fiber together (I plan on taping the cable to the inside compartment before removing the whole thing from the outside of my house) then you shouldn't disturb anything with the connection/connector.
Does Verizon troll these forums and lend a hand or some advise, or is this just a forum to talk to other consumers?
