    MoCA 2.5 adapters?

    I’ve been trying to figure out what isp’s they’re selling to, but with no luck. I love their 2.0 adapter, really want to upgrade to 2.5. I find it annoying that they’re not doing a consumer release.

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    Yeah, one of things that struck me last night was that IN and OUT really aren't IN and OUT. My flow is ONT -> ADAPTER -> Jack -> Jack -> ADAPTER ->TV... So you'd think that would be ONT (IN), Jack (OUT), Jack (IN), TV (OUT), but that's not the case. The "IN" port really should just be...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    Problem Solved Well thiggins, Most of life's problems can't be solved at 1:00 in the morning with a Red Bull-and-vodka... fortunately this problem isn't one of them! ;) I was thinking about the two sets of adapter inputs and outputs when it struck me... everything on the adaptor is wired...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    Hi thiggins, Just finished running those tests. You're right that NetMeter was a much better testing tool. I also believe you're also correct about the coax. From what I see from online charts, RG59 loses about 8.8 dB / 100 ft while RG6 loses about 8.2 dB / 100 ft @ 1000 MHz. Pretty much...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    I'm pretty sure I have RG-59 since my place is older, I have a short run (a few feet) of RG-6 at home, I'm curious to see if there is a big performance difference if I use that. I wonder if getting my house rewired is expensive? I'd imagine this could improve my TV quality (which is already...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    I'm actually not sure what the cable is. It's not the greatest stuff like the cable coming out of my ONT. I'd love to replace all that wiring, but not sure how difficult it'll be (don't know if it was stapled in... if it's loose, a pull-through would be a cinch probably). The original cable is...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    Hi thiggins, Picked up a different splitter (also 5-2300 MHz) on the way home and it didn't make a difference. Interestingly enough, I wasn't able to reproduce the video drop with an activated MoCA adaptor this time. For the sake of clarity let's used this key: Jack1 = goes to ONT...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    Currently I have, D band, SCAN, encryption set. Confirmed that both adapters have the same settings. True, perhaps I should pick another splitter up from HomeDepot on my way out tonight? This is the splitter that I'm using, does it look ok? link Haha, sounds good, thanks for the help...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    Hi thiggins, The out-of-box settings were surprising. One adapter was set for D band, the other was set for All Pass. A google search showed that this is how they ship which is pretty strange. I'll give that a try when I get home tonight and will post the results on here (it'll be...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    Oops, looks like I missed an edit. Let me answer the rest of your questions: Correct, I'm currently using both adaptors in D band. No, but I did go in and check all options available in the config screen to make sure they're what I *think* I want. I think it's correct. Here are my...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    Hi thiggins, I have a hardware firewall that separates my internal network from the internet. The firewall is connected directly into the ONT via Cat5 and acts as my router & gateway server. With this, I'm able to function without using the Actiontec. Correct, I did have TV access prior to...

    Problem getting MoCA adaptor to work with splitter

    Hello, I recently picked up a pair Netgear MoCA adaptors. I seem to be having issues getting them up and running. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Some background info: My TV service is FIOS. The coax from the ONT is backfeeding into the house. Internet access is being supplied via CAT5...
