The fiber does not connect to the Actiontec, which is a router, not a modem. The fiber connects to the ONT (Optical Network Terminal), which connects to the Actiontec using an Ethernet or coaxial cable. It is however possible to run a second Actiontec in another room by following this guide on the FAQ:

Last year there were announcement by Verizon about Magic Wire. Haven't heard anything since, but someday we may get what you want.
