Currently its the Hiltron coda, coda56 (multigig), Netgear CM3000, Netgear CBR750, and Arris g54.
Supposedly they're working on more but those are the current ones supporting the next gen speeds.

Are you able to hardwire in the detached garage either with ethernet or using a MoCa adapter (ethernet over coax).
Thank you for the info. Unfortunately I have an older house so hard wiring would be a task. your response helped!

do you have coax ran out to the media room in the garage? A moca adapter can get you a hardwired connection out there pretty reliably
