A couple things: 1. If you don't have a home phone line, I would suggest getting rid of your Comcast two in one and opting into your own modem and separate wifi router. A gateway does very little justice in a home your size. 2. In order to make the velop system an access point, which is what you want to do to make it sort of a wifi extension, you'll have to first call Comcast and have them turn your gateway into a bridge. This will bridge the connection from your modem to your velop router and allow that to be used as a router. You'll have multiple nodes so using them as a blanket wifi system is as easy as that.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You would turn off the wireless router on your comcast modem, connect directly to the velop router from the comcast modem using the gig ethernet port. The other two units would then connect to the primary as it would now be your router. I preferred getting my own modem, and completely eliminating the comcast cable modem altogether. I bought one with a gigabit interface.
