Please be aware homes here in the Villages Circa 2012 and earlier that are wired for Quantum Fiber have the old style telephone jacks installed around the home. These jacks look like the Ethernet jacks but they are smaller so the ethernet plug will not fit. Fortunately, there is Cat5E cable going from these jacks to the white data cabinet in the garage.
That said, in order to use these wired points around your home to install the Wifi pods, you need to replace the Telephone faceplate and jack with an Ethernet faceplate and jack and wire it properly.
If your home is newer, most have the Ethernet RJ45 jacks installed BUT they are never wired properly for Ethernet. In order to use them, you need to remove the faceplate and jack and wire them correctly.
When you get Quantum Fiber installed the tech is supposed to do this all for you but there a some customers who want to move the Wifi pods around after the install and many are running into this problem.
If you need help, please PM me.
