I'm might go all over the place with this post so please bear with me. I have very little networking experience save putting in a wifi router. I was hoping to get some advice. I have a large shop (metal ext) about 200ft from my house. WiFi won't penetrate shop walls and powerline adapters didn't work so I was thinking of running Cat5/6 or coax. Primary goal is 1 connection in the shop for a PC (that I can occasionally switch with an XBox for updates). Secondary goal would be to have a wireless router so I can connect multiple devices.
My current network is very basic: Comcast Xfinity service --> Motorola Surfboard SB6121 Modem --> Linksys E2000 Wireless router
Is this a good MoCA candidate?
If so, what kind of equipment would I need?
Where would I split connection to get network in shop?
If not and Cat5 is the better option, could I just run from my Linksys? That seems like it's too simple.
If I run Cat5/6, what kind of equipment would I need to term the connection in the shop?
