Netgear c7000v2

Hi 

Bare with me - this is a little of my area of understanding. 

I just moved and I have a Netgear c7000v2 that is about a year old.  I was using it for a cable modem/router with Xfinity at the new house, but then realized I wanted to transition to Verizon Fios. 

Verizon has supplied all their own equipment, but I am hoping to use the Netgear cable modem as an extender(?) bridge(?) to boost the signal in my office. 

I have done a factory reset, but kinda lost on the ability to set it up. 

THEN once on the Verizion Wifi.  Can I use an ethernet cable to connect an older stereo and printer to the Netgear modem?

Any help or guidance is certainly appreciated.

The C series only works in modem only mode or router gateway mode.

Thanks ! Not the answer I was hoping for - but good to know and not be chasing ghosts.

The only one thing you could do is to ethernet connect the modem to a host router after you configure the modem for a Faux AP Mode. Could use the modems wifi as a separate signal while ethernet connected to a host router.
