I am running dd-wrt kong firmware on a Netgear r7500v2. So my experience might not be valid for the r7000. But to enable ipv6 on dd-wrt kongac firmware, go to admin after signing in and under command line enter ifconfig eth0 promisc and apply. Test your ipv6. If you still have problem with...

There are certain requirements for repeater bridge mode to work. Did you try to connect 2 routers of the same chipsets and make. i.e. 2 rt-ac68u? If yes, then repeater will allow both wifi and lan on the repeater to work. They both need to have the same firmware. Repeater and wds requirements...

Your modem is separate and independent of your router. So no need to buy a different modem, but if you lease from comcast then buying your own will save money.

Netgear OEM firmware 1.0.3.4 latest have ipv6 problem with comcast. Netgear is working on a fix.

Looks like those mesh systems are going to take over the router market. I have been using repeaters for years but I am keeping an eye on those mesh systems if they are an improvement and it looks like they are.

Just a heads up. Using kong 11/14/16 r30880 as a repeater bridge. Working great!!! Will try 12/2/16 soon.

Antronix splitter is fine. That's what I use. Make sure that your TV, Tivo, devices are configured to use moca and ethernet. My Tivos specifically identified moca and ethernet as the network. I noticed that you did not mentioned a cable box before your tvs. You also need a moca POE filter...

LOL!!! Try it, pretty sure you will be happy!!! Assuming your router and AP are setting up properly!!!

The street cable is connected to the splitter (or hub as you called it). Use 1 coax from the hub connected to the Actiontec1. From the Actiontec1, Ethernet to the router and the coax output to whatever you want to use moca, i.e. Tivo box. From the hub, 1 coax go to the modem, from the modem to...

Your moca devices can be connected AFTER the splitter. But you need at least 2 moca devices Ethernet and coax connected to make a moca network.

Netgear has better hardware, Asus better firmware. Your high failure rate needs to be analyzed and fixed, these devices are designed for 24/7 for years.

Ubiquiti is an AP not a router as you must know. So your problem could be related to your setup or not. But if you really want a stable LAN and wireless then the Netgear r7800 is probably a good bet. Another option is the Asus rt-ac68u which has real good firmware options if that's your thing. I...

Running KongAC latest (release 9-8-16) on R7500v2 and everything seems to be working fine. The new Netgear firmware 1.0.3.4 did not solve the IPv6 problem with Comcast internet. Netgear did not add the repeater function which I really want.

Please report on your experience with the new Kong's firmware!!!

I found John9527, a RMerlin fork to be my choice.
