Should I pair our Motorola MG7700 with Eero or ASUS mesh?
Hello,
Just acquired a Motorola MG7700 for our 400 Mbps Xfinity service. We will likely go higher but don't need gigabit yet.
We have one PC that must be ethernet-connected for work, and our home office is on the side of the house. So the modem/router is tethered there, not centralized. Previously we had XFi with a pod and still had spotty connections.
I'm unsure how best to equalize connections throughout the house. We are considering either the Eero's; the ASUS ZenWiFi XT8; or MoCa adapters (https://motorolanetwork.com/moca-adapters-for-ethernet-over-coax.html).
The home does seem to be wired for ethernet, but plugging in a 5e cable doesn't seem to do anything.
Thank you for any help. Not a sophisticated technician here.

Those are good products, but hardwired is always the best compared to the vaiables that are associated with WiFi connections. I would go for MoCA if there is coax available where you need connectivity.
