A:Answer No, this uses an ethernet connection. If your current router has a coax connection, you should be able to switch it over to an Ethernet connection by plugging an ethernet cord directly into your terminal box (at least for Fios), then calling to change from Coax to Ethernet port. After that, you can release the IP address to your current router and plug into your new router (or disconnect and wait overnight, then plug into the new one). A quick google search on how to make the switch from coax to ethernet should pull up some helpful guides.
