If you perform the reset and it's still indicating that the battery needs replacing, then it's sure. Also look for corrosion on the terminals. I've seen in some homes where the ONT was put into a garage, or wet/unfinished basement. From my research online, they tend to fail sooner due to more significant temperature changes and high humidity.

I wonder if Batteries Plus might have them. They are close by to me.

So anyway I need to replace it. It is 12V 7.2 Ah. The one that Verizon
sells is 12V 8Ah:

See if you can find a local Battery Outlet, or some place similar. You can find UPS batteries and the like a lot cheaper than mail order.
