Need Help Planning Home Network Setup
Hello, I would appreciate any help this great community could provide. I have Optik TV and Internet 300 in a three-level townhouse (Garage and office on ground level, living space on middle level...

Ok, so I broke down and set up the network the way I originally wanted to do it:
On my first level, in the garage communication panel, I have the ONT > T3200M > Google wifi (main access point) > MoCA adaptor > Coax Splitter (1in 2 out)
I have a Google wifi in the office on the other side of the wall from the garage in wireless mesh mode so that I don't have to drill through the wall to the office.
I have a MoCA adaptor on the second (main) level and another one on the top (third) level. On both of these, I attached a Google wifi (wired mode).
My internet network is excellent now and I have over 300/300 everwhere in the townhouse. The only issue, of course, is that I can no longer run the Optik TV on my second (main) level and the ethernet comes through the Google network. This is ok for now since I only use Optik to watch sports and well...sports isn't on right now.
If I want Optik back, is my only option to put the Optik TV receiver in the communications panel and get a wireless box from Telus to install on my main level?
Thanks for everyone's help!

To be clear, the above setup is using 4 Google wifi devices and 3 MoCA adaptors. it is NOT the cheapest option but it is the best option for me.
