Something happened with the order of the Verizon adapter that never got delivered. However, I also confirm the ScreenBeam Adapters also pass tagged packets with no issues.
Hello. There's no unterminated connections (those are just cables that are bent to fit the box). The electrical tape might have been used by the cable company to identify some of the cables (still not sure what they meant).
It seems to work fine. However, thanks for the suggestion of expanding...
Update...
I finally could spend some time getting the splitters replaced + adding the extra filter into the cable modem (after they arrived on the mail), and things are looking much better). I haven't tested speed yet, but the lowest value is 3385! :
And here's the place where I needed to...
Yep, I saw that one. But it won't fit on a box like this, once you screw in all cables (which is what I have).

I wish I could put a larger splitter there, but I don't have the room. all this was crammed up in a 2-gang outlet box in the wall when this unit was built. The next Moca Adapter I saw online, was 8-ports, and won't fit there. Great call about the 75 ohm caps (In this case all ports will be used).
That's what I'll do. However, instead of the 2 port splitter, I'll use a 3 port one (This one has an outlet with -3.5dB signal, which I'll use to connect the cable modem to).
I checked the splitter, and instead of a 5-way splitter, there's actually 2x 4-way splitter (CommScope SV-4G) daisy chained. I bought 2 splitters today through Amazon (Amphenol MoCA 2.5 3-way and 4-way) to replace the old ones.
I don't have the Verizon unit yet (it should come in few days), however I want to prepare for any extra configuration needed before it comes. I have the Moca filter installed at the entrance of the coaxial cable in the house, and is exactly they one from your Amazon link.
Before the firmware...
Below is the diagram:
Red boxes are Moca adapters (issues with #0 is what started this thread) ..
Shouldn't the 5-way splitter be replaced by one covering 5-1675 Mhz? (As I understand, all Moca traffic still goes through that splitter)
Something I just realized is that the 5-way splitter installed by the ISP at the demarc, is rated for 5-1002 MHz . This can be contributing to the lack of performance (even though it still works).
I‘ll get a MoCA splitter to replace it.
Here's what I have on all Screen Beams:
Are you saying I don't need to have that selected at all? (That what was selected by default after I updated the firmware)
Is there a place you can point me to so I can read more what these parameters mean? (I just installed this MoCA setup about 1...
Hello,
I have 5 ScreenBeam ECB7250s working at my place, and I bought a "Verizon ASK-MAE340" (https://www.verizon.com/support/residential/internet/equipment/moca-ethernet-adapter ) to add.
Couple of questions:
After I upgraded my ECB7250s from Firmware 1.17.5.0 to 1.18.7.5, the only band I...
Thanks for your reply... Yesterday I made the following changes:
1.- Changed the splitter for one rated for MoCA (5-1675 Mhz). Before, I was using the standard 5-1002 Mhz. This change made sense once I thought about it. (However, if the previous splitter was only rated for 5-1002 Mhz, wouldn't...
Thanks for the reply.
1) I can reset them, but I'd like to make their IPs part of my LAN just for convenience to access their web interfaces to check their status and performance. I do have the Moca filter installed a well (between the coax cable coming from outside and the main splitter).
2)...
