Am I setting up the Verizon Network extender correctly?

I'm planning on buying the Verizon network extender for my home. https://www.verizon.com/home/fios-accessories/fios-network-extender/ I am unsure what I am suppsoe to connect or whether I have all the right equipment.

Right now I use Verizon Fio for internet, phone and TV. My ONT has a coxial cable that goes to splitter for TV and Verizon router. My router only has 1 coxial cable plug. Am I suppose to connect the ethnet from the ONT to my router? Does that even work?

Something like this:???

ONT --> Ethernet -->Verizon Router-->coaxial --> Extender -->

Why do you need the VZ NETWRK EXT on the 2 nd floor ?

Having said that please see "revisions" to your diagram in attachment.

Hope this info helps in your case

My Network Extender is doing a great job…located in upstairs Bedroom.

All 3 splitters are the same.

Do I need a specific fios router? I keep hearing people say you need the Rev-I version. I have the Rev-F version of the fios router.

It looks like it only has 1 splitter. Can you use any splitter or does it have to be a specific kind?

Here is one source for any splitters you might want to add.

In the diagram that I ref. before you will notice that I have a Rev F router.

How much of my set up are you planning to implement ?

My Fios Pkg is 50 Mhz Up/Down your final decision on your router depends on YOUR speed pkg.

Pretty much the samething except with 1 less splitter because I only have one set top box. Something like this. Does anything look wrong? Also what else comes does the network extender come with that way I can buy stuff ahead of time?

ONT------------Splitter---------STB-----------TV

Spliiter---------MI424WR-RevF
