I need to move my MI424 Rev i router. It's now connected to the ONT with maybe 8 ft of coax and no splitters. I need to add at least 50 ft of RG6 and move it. However, whenever I add more than about 10 ft, I lose the internet connection. Neither the WAN Coax or WAN Ethernet lights will come on. But if I use only a short 6 ft length, it does reconnect and works fine.
Has anybody experienced this? I'm thinking the router must be defective, but maybe I'm missing something. I know I could switch to a CAT5 connection to the ONT, but I'd prefer using the RG6 since I already have spare coax wired in place. I'd also like to be sure there's no problem with the router's coax connection. Thanks a lot.
