Its because the C7100V doesn't have MoCa. The instructions specifically state it should support MoCa.

RIght thank you, so should I buy a moca adapter and that would work?

Check with actiontec to see if simply connecting a moca adapter to the C7100v will work. They'll be the experts on what needs to happen for their extender to connect.
