Question Nighthawk Modem WiFi Router C7000 and Verizon MoCA Ethernet Adapter

[topaz318]

Hey there! So, I ditched Xfinity for Verizon Fios and got a free extender and a MoCA Ethernet Adapter. Now, I've got this NETGEAR Nighthawk Modem WiFi Router Combo C7000 sitting. Think this will work with MoCA Adapter to fix the dead spots upstairs and in the garage?

If yes, how do I hook it up? If not, got any other ideas for getting Wi-Fi out there using the MoCA?

Thank you!

It will depend on how your coax cable is connected.
You need to diagram how your coax is connected.

The Verizon tech connected all the Coax cables to the router in the basement.

A Verizon router will typically only have one coax connection. If that is "all" the coax, then MoCA won't do much for you.

All of them are connected using a splitter. What I am more concerned about is whether the Nighthawk is compatible with the MoCA?
