A Cable Modem will not work since they use DOCSIS to communicate with the network. FiOS uses MoCa over Coax. You'll need a MoCa adapter (also known as a NIM100) to do what you're trying to accomplish.

As smith6612 said, FIOS does not use cable modems.

The following two FAQs should help with what you need:

Can I get an ethernet connection in a room with only coax

What is a MOCA Bridge
