    Moca setup help

    My question was what device would be used along with a moca compatible modem/router. The motorola adapters were a pair since you werent using the modem/router with Moca. If you use a moca modem/router then what do you use in conjunction with that? Do you just use a single adapter instead of the...

    Moca setup help

    I ended up removing all other coax connections from the amp apart from the one going upstairs and the modem and still couldnt get it to sync. I had hoped it would be a more straightforward process and we were visiting from out of town so I decided to abandon it at this stage and put things back...

    Moca setup help

    Sorry im confused what the aim is, if i turn off the other devices and the modem you suggest seeing if the moca adapters still ‘link’ and i get a green light for that? I already have 3 lights which suggests they do sync. Or do you think there could be a signal reaching adapter 2 from another...

    Moca setup help

    I tested the 2nd moca adapter in a different bedroom removing the tv box there (the other tv boxes are still connected and in use) - same result, 3 lights but no internet. When I tested moca adapter 1 connected with a short coax to moca adapter 2 and to the laptop everything worked like I said...

    Moca setup help

    I would need the ISP modem on for the test though? I plan to go to one of the other bedrooms and remove the tv box and just go from the wall to the moca adapter and test it that way, if I get a signal then I will put back in the tv box and see if i still get a signal - if I do then theres prob...

    Moca setup help

    What I could try just as a seperate test is take the tv box out of the equation and do wall point to moca and plug a laptop in to it. I assume that would at least tell me the signal works and then adding the moca splitter after would divide the signal. How big an impact are the unterminated...

    Moca setup help

    The isp TWC/Spectrum disable moca on the modem by default and its locked out, its not possible to enable it. So that prob wipes out some of the above suggestions or questions. Not sure about the tv boxes so it may be worth trying to the moca splitters like you suggested. Its starting to turn...

    Moca setup help

    Ethernet cable from the moca 1 goes to the ethernet port on the Deco as its providing the DHCP/IP etc - Router is in Bridge mode connected to the Deco which provides wi-fi and controls everything.

    Moca setup help

    So did the local test with the moca adapters connected to each other ...all good. Did a test with one of them wired to the deco and to the other moca adapter just using a short coac between them and connected the ethernet port to a laptop....all good. Put the first moca adapter back in between...

    Moca setup help

    I also checked and there are no other splitters in the attic, all cables run from the basement up to the attic from the amp then run to the various rooms apart from the one on out 2 that runs to the modem in the office on the ground floor. So shouldnt be anything else there blocking it on the way.
