Or the Internet is really down and they blame it's my "Complicated" setup. To cover my ass if somehow the "Internet" is not working due to the wireless network being down. At a Family member i left them with it as a Router and Wireless on even though i had a whole Ubiquiti setup running. Wireless Settings→Advanced Security SettingsĪnd if neither of those work. Wireless Settings→ Basic Security Settings Reality is you're still renting just a glorified MoCA adapter for $120 per year (depending on contract may be mandatory). Otherwise, just remove it from your stored networks on your devices so you don't have to worry about connecting to it. If their support tells you how, then yeah. Is there any way to turn off its wifi entirely so it doesn’t even show up as an option? Per eero support, I put the Quantum Gateway in bridge mode, but its wifi network still appears as an available network. Now getting lightning-fast wifi in my office and bedroom which were previously dead zones. Working beautifully! Setup really was as easy as advertised – I just followed the instructions in the app and everything was ready to go in 5 minutes.
VERIZON FIOS SELF INSTALL G1100 UPDATE
Supposed to arrive on Tuesday – I’ll update with my experience, good or bad! So I bought one regular router/base station and one beacon.

Since they were having a Memorial Day sale (and I also had a coupon code for free shipping), I figured I’ll just try it. I asked eero support about this and they got back to me and said I should be able to just plug it into one of the free LAN ports on the Quantum Gateway. Assuming you're aiming for a wired backhaul. You ditch your Quantum router and use your Eero as a router. The Erro2 plugs into the ethernet port of the MoCA adapter and connects via Coax. Your Erro1 goes AP mode only and plugs into the Router.Īnd your Router plugs into the Coax distribution or direct to the wire that goes to where the Router used to be. So without running ethernet cable you'll get as fast as your service will allow. You'll need one MoCA 2.5 Adapter and just figure out which Coax wires and go point to point. Using and paying for Quantum router still.

You do need it if you have TV service because going though the technical troubleshooting when your TV's programming guide doesn't work goes all to hell. You don't need the Quantum router in theory. And it should get an signal provided it's still plugged into the splitter where the ONT is located. (Get a newer 2.5)Īnd put the adapter where your Router used to be. If that is the case then you should only need to get One MoCA 2.0 adapter. Your Gateway is connected also by Coax but by the ONT.īy the ONT you have a Splitter and a bunch of Coax which everything is plugged into. Your ONT now connects to your Gateway via Ethernet. (Also, sorry if any of this is unclear, I know next to nothing about anything networking-related!). Is there any way I can use an eero with my existing setup? Would I need to get a new modem or something too? Is there any other way I can improve my WiFi coverage given that I only have the one Ethernet port in the wall which I can’t move? I looked into getting an eero to resolve this, but the eero’s instructions say to plug it into your modem via Ethernet – but I’m already using the Ethernet port on my gateway for my Internet service, and I can’t switch that back to coax unless I downgrade back to 100/100, which I don’t want to do. This means the WiFi gets weaker the further you move toward the other end of the house, to the point that there’s no WiFi coverage at all in one of the upstairs bedrooms. The problem is, this one Ethernet port is located downstairs and all the way at one end of the house, so that’s where the gateway is located. I use their Quantum Gateway combination router/modem, so I have an Ethernet cable running from the one Ethernet port in the wall into the gateway, and that’s how I get an Internet connection and WiFi. The house does have one Ethernet port, so Verizon was able to switch the service over to Ethernet.

This requires that the Internet connection come into the house over Ethernet rather than coax.

I have Verizon Fios for home Internet service and recently upgraded to 200/200 mbps (up from 100/100 before).
