Bridge Mode - Using Your Own Router (New)

[news]

[wireless]

Hi, can someone shed some light on this:

I have a Linksys EA9500 Max-Stream™ AC5400 MU-MIMO Gigabit WiFi Router which I would like to use instead of the Telus Actiontec T3200M Gateway in my home. All my Telus Optik boxes are connected via moca ethernet over coax adapters.

Would the following setup work:

Nokia ONT -> T3200M (Bridge Mode) -> Port 1 -> ethernet cable > to the WAN Port of the > Linksys Router -> then LAN port 1 or any LAN port out of my router to > ethernet cable > moca adapter that feeds the signal to the other moca adapters in the home via coax.

I believe my Linksys router has the multicast filtering option/support.

Will my Telus Optik boxes work correctly in this setup?

Would this setup make my Linksys router fail at some point?

I like using the moca ethernet over coax adapters, so I want to continue using them.

Please advise.

Thank you!
