said by TheAgent007:Thanks for your patience I think I get it now. I'm not sure how we went from the Actiontec having just one "WAN port" to it now have "both WAN ports".
1) Yes, there is one coax input, but we've talked about both MOCA LAN and MOCA WAN. Both operate over the same coax, but on different freqencies. MOCA WAN is used to talk to the ONT (if your WAN is provisioned for coax) and MOCA LAN is used to talk to the STBs (if you have FIOS-TV with VZ STBs).
said by TheAgent007:There have been reports of xbox not working as well when connected to the secondary LAN as if it's connected to the primary LAN.
I would question that statement. In a LAN-to-LAN configuration there should be no difference in which router the Xbox is connected to. The secondary router becomes just a switch and a WAP.
said by TheAgent007:And with Option 2 you're saying that the "primary router" is the Actiontec and NOT the Linksys?
The primary router is
always the router with the WAN port connected to the ONT (except for FAQ option #5 which I do not recommend).
said by TheAgent007:In which case that is why I would look to Option 6?
Yes.
