Apologies for not reading the previous thread.

We have FIOS and the signal comes into the ONT in the garage and from there a coax runs into the house and is split to various TVs and router. There is also a CAT run from the ONT into the router as well (this is how FIOS handles the TV guide for some reason - if I discount the CAT from the router, the TVs lose their TV guides).

What would be the best approach to get a stronger signal? When font says go to the telco box, is he saying the ONT? Or is he just saying dump the Verizon router and plug in a mesh router?

As noted, that would be an issue because it would kill the TV guides to the TVs. Maybe I could plug a mesh router into the Verizon router?

EDIT: The more I read, the more it's tough to go outside the Verizon world for this stuff. And with Verizon introducing new Verizon ONE TV boxes, they are even more reliant on the Verizon router. Verizon has some router and extender options, so I may look into that.

You'd plug the mesh router into your Verizon router

It then a) maximizes channel/signal usage and b) extends the signal.

At least that's what Google Wifi does. I assume every other mesh system does the same thing. I general, I wouldn't buy anything from Verizon.

Is this the product you're talking about? (link)

That's the one. *
