Hi all,
I'm currently using a MOCA adapter and switch combo in a secondary room to connect to my ASUS router in the main room via coax cabling.
I would like to connect a third room to the same ASUS router via coax. I have a spare T3200M modem and wondering if it can be used instead of another MOCA & switch combo. If so, what should be the settings for T3200M? Ideally, I would like it to act as a bridge. I'm aware Port 1 can be set as the bridge but I would like the MOCA port to be the bridge because that's the port connected to the ASUS router via coax. Is this possible?
Thanks.

The T3200 is not designed to work like that. You will run into problems if you tried. If you wanted devices to be on the network created by the Asus router, you'll need to connect the devices / switch to the Asus by ethernet.

Thanks, that confirms my experience trying to use the T3200 MOCA port as a bridge. It would work as a separate router and not in bridge mode even with the Port Bridging configuration option. Too bad as it would have been so convenient to have 1 device instead of 2.
