    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    now 3 weeks out with the updated ecb6200s without a reset still at 78MB/s for windows file transfer (server to HTPC), so no significant slowdown for me so far

    Can MOCA traverse a cable TV amplifier?

    satellite diplexers to bypass the moca frequencies around the amplifier would be the simple, although maybe not the best solution, more detail with other options and links awaiting moderation http://www.snbforums.com/threads/help-on-moca-with-cable-amp.2486/ if you do this, make sure to put a...

    Can MOCA traverse a cable TV amplifier?

    Most moca amps really need home run lines to a central location http://www.pctstore.com/RF_Amplifiers_MoCA_Bypass_Amplifier_s/55.htm Look at the filter diagram here. This seems to be the best moca compatible amplifier / splitter that I have found. The moca nodes need to be connected after...

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    changed back to the ecb6200s, updated the firmware, has been stable for the past 3 days, will check speed after a week to compare as well certainly much better now, nice that the management interface is available as well

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    well I have noticed a different issue with the ecb6000 adapters that only affects my samsung smart TV but not my HTPC (connected to the same cisco sg200-08) switch, will try a few other things as it is not clear to me that the ecb6000 is the cause yet with powerline or moca 1.1 navigation is...

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    well i hooked up a pair of ecb6000s 3 days ago and have had no problems so far, with 52 MBps for windows file transfers (vs 70-90 with the ecb6200s). so clearly it was the ecb6200s with the issue - although I wish I had know about the firmware update prior to returning them. i am guessing from...

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    interesting, actiontec's "tier 2" tech support insisted there was no way to perform a firmware update on these devices, would love to have this work and be able to use the bonded devices

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    well i returned the ecb6200s and placed an order for the ecb6000k02 kit as it is now available on newegg with free shipping, will post back when it arrives and is tested with the same setup in my case, when the ecb6200 connected to my switch with the htpc went to slow mode, the TV connected to...

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    back to 5mbps this morning the problem is clearly the adapters here - i can not control flow control on the TV. I am not going to unplug my TV in order to prevent the adapters from going into whatever problem mode they go into these things need a firmware update - returning for now as that...

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    well the cisco sg200-08 switches already had flow control disabled by default, so nothing to change went ahead and switched HTPC to flow control disabled as well. however, i have no control over the samsung TV also connected to the switch after setting flow control to disabled on the htpc...

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    i have cisco sg200-08 switches at either end of the moca adapters - will try disabling flow control when i get home

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    it drops down to less than 1 Mbps when I check on speedtest (download, upload actually stays at 6 Mbps), has now done it repeatedly about 10-15 times

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    well i have had some recent issues with the pair of ecb6200s the connection is great and stable for 15 mintues to a couple of hours, but then all of a sudden the connection in at least one direction drops to almost nothing unplugging and plugging back in one of the adapters seems to restore...
