I'm preparing for FIOS triple play and want to optimize my install. I've got coax and Cat x cables from 3 locations pre wired down to the plywood mount for the ONT. A previous (older) post suggested mounting the ONT and router on the board and jumping/connecting the ONT to the router then router out to the 3 Cat x locations and enabling ethernet on the ONT. Then run coax from the ONT to a splitter to the 3 coax locations. Also run coax from the router to the splitter to allow VOD/Guide info. Then phone line from ONT to block or central phone. This seems like a good way to bring seperate TV signal via coax and Internet signal via Cat x.
My questions are:
1) Is this setup viable in 2018/19 or does MoCA negate the need for seprate Cat x and coax cables running data and TV signal seperately?
2) will the router in the basement reduce the WiFi signal?
3) Is there a way to configure this so the router can be located near one of the Cat x/Coax outlets upstairs instead of the basement?
