    VLAN tagging using MI424WR Rev I MoCA bridges?

    Is it possible to pass VLAN tags using two MI424WR Rev I MoCA bridges? Is there some setting I'm missing? I even tried putting the upstream and downstream MoCA bridges on a VLAN port on a switch using a PVID and VID tag. That also didn't work, but it might be because the bridges were still...

    Hello Everyone, So we're getting FiOS with (nearly) gigabit internet, as well as TV and phone. I'm aware the Verizon router is locked down, and Verizon can see everything you do.
