UPDATE: If you bought WCB6200Q one of the first things you should do after the WPS step is to update your firmware from 1.1.10.20 to the latest 1.1.10.20a.t. Search “WCB6200Q Firmware Upgrade” and you will find the instructions and file to update your extender. Also one thing I forgot to mention was to make sure you check your incoming splitter that is outside located after your fios box. You need to change it out to a MOCA-Compliant splitter from the regular one for this to work. Can confirm the “The Holland Electronics” splitter with the blue label works wellReview:Was using cheap plugin wifi extenders to fill in dead areas around my house. Was always resetting these plugin extenders because they kept disconnecting so I looked for a better solution and found the Actiontec Wifi Extender WCB6200Q. Some of the things I was looking for was a consistent reliable wired connection, Ethernet capable, easy setup/plug and play situation and lastly an extender that would be totally compatible with Frontier FiosEasy SetupSuper easy using the instructions that came with the box. First plugged the new extender into my G1100 router using an Ethernet cable then plugged the extender into my computer using another Ethernet cable then plugged in the power cord. I then waited till the extender light turned green on top..at that point I pressed the WPS green light on the extender for 10 seconds till it turned red and started blinking then i pressed the WPS button on the G1100 router for 3 seconds and started blinking. In less than 10 seconds the extender found my router and connected. Another thing the WPS process does is change the extenders name and password to match the routers name and password but adds and “ext” on the end of the name to differentiate it. Finally after getting setup I updated the firmware which can be found on the actiontec website.ResultsI now have a solid wifi extender that is reliable and bulletproof that works in the dead areas of my house. WIFI speeds are almost consistent with my wired speeds. 50/50 but the thing I like most is I haven’t had to reset anything. Everythings working as it should out the box and I dont have to deal those terrible cheap wifi extenders anymore.In the boxWifi ExtenderPower adapterBonded Moca Splitter6ft Ethernet cable3ft Coax CableInstructions

Here it is, the answer to connecting your system for Long Island Optimum online cable users. This product works great when hooked up right. The secret is having POE filters installed on the cable in to your cable box. You will also need the Actiontec Bonded MoCA 2.0 Ethernet to Coax Adapter (ECB6200S02) for the extender to work. You’re welcome.
