NH20A (Bridged) + MoCA for Optik TV + Own Router? Possible?
Does anyone know if I put the NH20A into bridged mode for use with my own wifi6 router instead of the TELUS one, can I still use the MoCA on the NH20A to directly connect to the Optik TV units. I un...
Did you ever get any more info elsewhere?
Here's a slightly older Reddit thread about the exact same thing. They got it to work now it seems.

I haven't gotten anymore info. I did read through the other thread several days ago, but didn't seem to answer my question -- which is essentially, can I get Optik TV to work without the Boost module so as to only use a direct connection using the MoCA from the NH20A.
Have you tried connecting a TV directly to the NH20A using the MOCA connector to a MOCA/ETH adapter then > ethernet to TV? It should work. MOCA is just a alternative 2.5Gbe connection to the Booster or a MOCA/Eth adapter. You don't have to use MOCA. You can connect TVs via 1Gbe ethernet cables. The question I have are the four Gbe ports on the NH20A active? Are you planning to use the 10Gbe SFP+ port on the NH20A to connect your own router?
I could be wrong about this, but I believe you can't connect a TV directly using MOCA. I tried it, I had to use MOCA/ETH adapters for each TV. You can also use a coaxial splitter with the Telus T3200M's MOCA I/O, so I would assume you can do this also with the NH20A. But I'm somewhat certain you need MOCA/ETH adapters. Telus gave me a bunch of those.
