the one "hardware" exception is you should make sure you have a MoCA filter at the edge of your house where your coax is... The MoCa configuration is by default set up without any encryption, you need a physical filter in line with your coax cable to "stop" it from going out beyond your own house back over where your cable comes in to your house. Otherwise your neighbors within 300' of that wire (or so) can buy a $12 device on Amazon to connect right to your network.
You can buy a MoCA filter on Amazon : https://www.amazon.com/Filter-MoCA-Cable-Coaxial-Networking/dp/B00DC8IEE6/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&qid=1540161311&sr=8-3&linkCode=as2&tag=model30f-20 -- just install this then where the coaxial comes in to your house, or if you have a place in your house with a splitter that you know you don't want beyond that or what not, on one side of that.
Which, as it turns out can work as a convenience to you as well if you're just wanting to extend your household network's wifi too... you can buy one of these for $12 : https://www.amazon.com/Actiontec-Dual-Band-Wireless-Extender-Ethernet/dp/B00FKTMWDE/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&qid=1540161554&linkCode=as2&tag=model30f-20& and connect it to the same coaxial cable your Layer3 is connected to; it will use the MoCa from your main layer3 to extend the network over that... and then it will broadcast its own wireless network from there (2.4 and 5ghz). I have set two of these up, one of them outside in a utility enclosure box.
