Inspect this adapter and how it’s connected more closely.
My guess would be that you have a Frontier FCA252 MoCA 2.5 adapter, set to “25GW” and connected to the router Ethernet WAN port, to effect a MoCA WAN link with the ONT over your coax — rather than having a direct CATX Ethernet connection between the ONT and router. So this adapter is strictly for effecting the WAN connection between the ONT and router.
Sure. But it likely wouldn’t be of any benefit without first ensuring that you’ve established a MoCA LAN access point at the router. And you’d have some small amount of legwork to do to make sure that the coax outlets interconnect.
It depends on what your subscribed speeds are and what specific MoCA adapter(s) you choose to employ. MoCA supports up to 2500 Mbps unidirectional throughput with the MoCA 2.5 spec.
