ok i'm getting frontier installed 3-11-24 and i have a few questions to get figured out before they start setting up there system.
i have a network system now i have a 24 port netgear network main unit and i have netgear 5 and 8 port units at different spots around the house. one is by the back door down stairs and connected to 3 dvr/nvr units. and a couple of ip cameras in that location. one by the tv one in the kitchen by my pcs and one out in the front garage maybe 25' from where frontier will be placing there ONT unit.
my question is this can i run a cat6 line from the network hub that is in the front garage maybe 25' from that new ONT unit and then set the eero 6 router by the tv in the house and plug that into the network hub located there and have it work?
or will i need to run a cat6 line directly from the ONT thru the house to the eero 6 router and then plug that eero 6 router into the network hun located there to get the house online so i can see my cameras when away from the house?
also can i get into the eero 6 router and reset the ports in that router so i can see my cameras? i do not use the standard ports i have 5 digit port numbers. and i have to do port forwarding also and will there app allow this?
