Have heard conflicting things about whether the Ethernet port on the IPC1100 can be used without Coax. House is wired for 1 GbE Cat6 including the ONT to the MI424-WR Rev I router. Coax runs to the router, Verizon Media Server and an existing Verizon Media Client. Would like to add another TV and Media Client where a Cat6 Ethernet jack is located (but not coax).
Verizon FiOS Tech Support just told me that coax is required. Tried out Cat6 Ethernet and only the guide worked on the Media Client - no video until the coax was plugged in. Even tried an ActionTec MoCA to Ethernet bridge to see if that would provide me with a workaround but again, only the guide worked.
Anyone out there know of a way around this? Was hoping there might be a setting on the IPC1100 to force it to use Ethernet for video as well.
