Data & TV (Fios) to garage

[kctyphoon]

KC, so if I read the application of this item correctly, my ONT goes to my router in the house via coax. Then Ethernet to the highwire that exits the house to the coax. Coax then goes to the garage to another highwire. Highwire then to a switch via Ethernet. Then Ethernet to a wifi router for the data solution. My question then is how do I get TV to the STB since the STB box Ethernet port is not active??? I like this option but am unsure of the TV termination. Thanks

im unsure myself, hoping that maybe a more experienced tech could suggest if that was for you..

one thing i can tell you with total confidence, is you are rolling the dice whenever a tech (or anyone for that matter) comes to your house to do any type of job, especially a challanging one. some tech's honestly dont have the experience others do, and unfortunately some others just dont care and have no real interest in solving a difficult situation. also, the way this company is run now - most supervisors have no experience doing the job of the people they supervise. had a better tech came, you may not be here searching for a solution - some of these guys love solving a challange, and a job like this is a break in the monotony of a normal day.

something else i can tell you, and again i dont know if this can help you - is that technology has improved to the point that most of our fios network is now "plug and play" meaning the service drops for all of the homes, and even many of the terminals that feed homes, are all quick connects now. (very similar to the optic line in the back of a newer tv or home theater receiver) so IF you can use an optical line , and equipment on either end, it may just be as simple as buying the appropiate length line that already has a plug on both ends, and then twisting a connector onto additonal equimpment you may buy.

i wish i could be of more help, but i really think another forum might be your best bet for a solid answer. there is alot of technology out there now, and its not like your asking for something impossible. if an easy solution does not present itslef to you, its possible you can request to speak with a verizon engineer for a solution.
