Can I add a second wired / wireless router in my home by connecting to another FiOS coax outlet?

Can I add a second router in my home by connecting to another FiOS coax outlet?
My existing, Verizon supplied, router is connected to a cable coax outlet on one side of the house and works fine. With all the new A/V equipment coming out these days, I'd like to be able to network them. So what I'd lke to do is put a splitter before my FiOS HD DVR receiver and connect another router right there for my TV, BLU Ray, Receiver, XBOX, etc.
Any tips, comments, or suggestions appreciated.

Don't want to do that ... while the refrigerator talking to the dryer has had the interesting side effect of automatically tossing my salads, my washer now insists on feeding my clothes to the ice maker which makes for either shredded or frozen clothes depending on the setting. I can only imagine what would have happened if they networked my coffee maker and toaster as well!

Can I add a second Airport Express?

I have an Extreme Base Station connected to my Time Warner Cable Modem. It comes into my house in my office, which is over my garage, a separate structure in my backyard. The iMacs there are connected via Ethernet to the Apple Base Station. In my house, maybe 30 feet away, where I use two Macbook Pro's, iPhone 6, iPad 3 etc, all via Wireless, I have an Airport Express as an extender to amplify the signal because my house with it's lathe walls is a great shield. This works OK up to a point. The further away I get from the Airport Express, the fainter the signal gets.
Naturally, the farthest room away is my family room with a Smart TV, Apple TV, A/V receiver, DirecTV Cinema box, Playstation3 etc. I just added an Amazon FireStick TV via HDMI. It found my wireless network perfectly and joined. Problem is, it's buffering like crazy when I try to watch a movie and reporting "bandwidth too low". So I have a problem. I need to boost the signal one more time.
Can I add a second Airport Express to my existing network as an extender, which now consists of a Extreme BaseStation and one Airport Express.
If not, does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you.

Sorry, but no. Even if it was possible, the speed loss would be amazing, and would really hurt, not help the current network performance.
Probably not the answer that you want to hear, but the only way to get the same signal strength and speed from your office to a location in the home is to run an Ethernet cable between the two locations.
There is no loss of signal or speed through an Ethernet cable up to 330 feet, or 100 meters. Good old Ethernet cable. Nothing comes close to a wire in terms of performance.
I faced a similar problem, and while the initial outlay to the electrician was significant, it has been the best investment that I ever made in terms of improving network performance....far better than the "improvement" with any new product, or any new router or any new technology that might have been available.
If you absolutely cannot run the Ethernet cable, then a pair of Ethernet Over Powerline (EOP) adapters might be able to send the Ethernet signal over the existing power lines in your office and home.
The theory with EOP products is that you already have the wiring in place.....you just need the adapters. Unfortunately, things do not always work as well in practice as the theory might suggest.......having the signal hop several different circuits would be one major challenge.....whether the office and home are on the same master circuit would be a question as well.
Given your situation, I would not even consider trying EOP adapters unless the store agreed to take them back within 7-14 days if they don't work well for you.

Airport Extreme works with ethernet but i CAN'T ADD IT TO MY WIRELESS ?

I'm able to set up airport extreme with ethernet but for some reason i can not add it to my wireless network. Why is this ? I cant figure it out.. by now im connected hard wired airport extreme and 2wire modem is working fine.
Yesterday i was able to do it without the ethernet cable and it was succesfuly joined to my wireless network but it went amber color maybe cause it was disconnected by accident.
Any suggestions? or solutions?

Same here. I have clearwwire and my airport extreme base station was working fine until 3 days ago. My computer cannot find the base station; tried everything. I can get internet if I connect clearwire via ethernet port. What gives? All I get is the blinking amber light. Is it just broken?

You could put your install disc on a USB Flash drive with Disk Utility. Also, here is the USB optical drive enclosure I bought. He raised the price a few bucks. Mine ran $10.00 with the shipping.

Hi,
For many 17" (or 17.3") machines such as Envy 17, dv, Pavilion 17 .... you can add a second HDD (my old loan dv7 has two HDD's and my current loan Envy 17 also has 2 HDD's). You would need the following kit:

Can I add a second account to Adobe Digital Editions

I have two adobe reader accounts. One for my family one for personnel use. The computer has my personnel account on it. I want to add the family account to add books to my wifes nook. Can not seem to find out how to do that

Hi manobird,
If you used one ID to install ADE, you cannot download an ebook from a site into ADE if you used a different ID. That's the way the Digital
Millenium Copyright Act of 2000 was implemented to prevent unauthorized copying of ematerials. ADE tells you that in its HELP section. You can't add a second ID to ADE either, for the same reason.
What you CAN do is to change users, and authorize ADE with the same ID you used when you downloaded the ebook. You do this by bringing ADE up, then using the CNTLSHIFTD key combination, you will deauthorize ADE. Close ADE and reopen it, and ADE should ask you to authorize it. At this point, you can enter the second ID, and ADE will take off from there. BUT, keep in mind that any other ebooks you downloaded into ADE with the first ID will not be accessible until you go through the same process again and revert to the first ID.
Hope this helps!

Can I add a second ATI 4870 to my 2009 Mac Pro?

1. Can I add a second ATI 4870 to my 2009 Mac Pro? Sorry if posted already, I searched and Googled and could not find it.
2. What is the general consensus on the EVGA GTX285? Will this out perform the 4870?
I read somewhere that the ATI needs additional power from the power supply and the GTX does not? Is this true? If this is the case are there extra power supply connectors for an additional 4870 (hence my first question).
The GTX has dual DVI out connector and this is my preferred solution to get 2 x 30" Cinema Displays.
Thanks in advance,
MIke

No. Each ATI 4870 needs two auxiliary power connectors. There are only two in the Mac Pro.
I read somewhere that the ATI needs additional power from the power supply and the GTX does not? Is this true?
No. Both use two per card.

You can use an adapter to connect a second 30" to the Mini DisplayPort

(The latest adapters have new firmware, and shouldn't have problems.)
If you only need two displays, stick with one graphics card.

Can I add a second activity indicator? (Or more)

I have Firefox 4.0.1 Just wanted to know if it's possible to add a second activity indicator or more.

You can't add a second AGP card (there is only one AGP slot on the motherboard). You could add a PCI graphics card, but you will get much better performance by replacing your current AGP card with one that supports two monitors. There are various options depending on whether you have a display using ADC, how much performance you want, and price.
If you need ADC and don't want to buy a DVI to ADC adapter, you can look for a used Macintosh NVIDIA GeForce 2 MX Twinview or NVIDIA GeForce 4 Titanium. These don't support Core Video, so will not be able to take advantage of some features and speed improvements in Tiger.
If you don't need ADC, or get a DVI to ADC adapter, you can get much better performance. The best (but expensive) is the ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Mac Edition 256MB. It has a DVI and a VGA port.
A lot cheaper, and a bit slower, is the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro Power Mac G5 edition, modified to work in a G4 Quicksilver. See:
<http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Apple/630ATI96G4/>
With this card you will need an ADC to VGA adapter to run your second monitor. The other port is DVI.
Beware of the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro PC & Mac Edition 256MB card. It will not work in some Quicksilver modes.

Can I add a second graphics card?

I have an older G$ Quicksilver with a 32MB Geforce2 MX display card. I want to add a second vga monitor in pan mode to display one program while the other monitor displays another program. Can I add a second GeForce2 MX 32MB AGP card to accomplish this? Or do I need a more powerful card to replace the one I have?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Of course. Just get a monitor and the Mini DisplayPort adapter you need to connect the Mac to the monitor. I recommend you to use HDMI if the monitor uses it. Also, you can connect it to a TV. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241

MiniDisplay-to-? adapters ... ? replaced by VGA or DVI or HDMI
Best to use only 1 adapter to match the intended cable since mutliple-adapter setup (buy a VGA, then add VGA-DVI adapter) tendsto lose signal strength.
Also graphics chips run hotter driving external display, and since the graphics chip in Air is part of the CPU the CPU may throttle itself as the integrated graphics chip heats up.
Two modes of operation:
Mirror ... same image both displays
Extended ... the other screen is "extra screen space"
