From the Actiontec, coax runs to your TV(s) and you connect your computers via ethernet or wifi.
If you read the FiOS forum on DSLReports, you will see posts where people have run their own Cat5e from the ONT to where the Actiontec is located. Although the installer will by default run coax, if the Cat5e is there and the installer doesn't have to run it himself, he will generally use it--it just requires a change of the order at the main office to provision you for Internet over Cat5 instead of coax. Also, some people have reported being able to call Verizon and have this changed after the fact.
