    List of MoCa 2.5 Devices [Updated 8/25/20]

    So from my cursory review of the different devices, there seems to be 2 main case designs. The "long" adapter with the connectors on each end like the goCoax model and the "wide" adapter with the connectors on the back like the Teamly Digital model.

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    I'm lucky in that the power outage that "fixed" the MoCA connection in the first place is the first one that I've had in recent memory. My MoCA connection was working for about 3 weeks before I decided to update the firmware and enable encryption which required taking the adapters offline...

    Nice, thanks. I'm guessing the higher the number between different adapters the better?

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    I figured out what my issue was. It turns out that my cables boxes were interfering with the adapters from syncing up. However, it wasn't all the cable boxes, just the ones connected to MoCA adapters. If I unplugged them, the adapters would sync up in about 30 - 45 seconds. Afterwards I could...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    I can try that but I didn't change anything before they just started working after 9 months of not working. Also, my cable modem is on a separate coax cable circuit from the TV coaxial cable. The coax from the cable provider splits at a junction box outside my house, the cable for the internet...

    The cable modem is DOCSIS 3.1 unit. It's a Hitron CODA-4582.

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    9 / 10 of my STBs are "simple cable boxes" too without any built in DVR. However, like many stand alone cable boxes, they're able to receive content that you have recorded and saved in the cloud. That way any TV in your house that has a cable box attached to it can receive and control a recorded...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    Well I know all my STBs are MoCA devices since my cable provider now offers cloud PVR storage and streaming to any STB in the house. You don't need a stand alone PVR any more. How are you isolating the X1 box with PoE devices? I'm not clear on what a power over ethernet device has to do with...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    Huh, I wonder if this was my problem. I have 10 Cisco Nextbox set top boxes in my house that were supplied by my cable provider. One of them is also a PVR. I wonder if I was experiencing the same issue as you. How did you determine the STB was causing syncing interference? Did disconnecting the...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    That's the thing, nothing was added or taken off the network during those 9 months; either on the coax network or the "internet" network (excluding my phone when I come and go from the house). I haven't reset anything either (although some devices may have reset themselves due to an update or...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    Just wondering if anyone has any ideas why my goCoax adapters suddenly started working after 9 months of not working and I didn't change anything. I'm not complaining but I'd like to have an idea why in case they stop working in the future or if there's something I need to do first when hooking...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    @gocoax Here's a really weird one for you guys I bought 2 goCoax adapters late last year. I couldn't get them to connect no matter what I tired. When I hooked them up as shown in the instructions only the first and last LEDs lit up. The middle one didn't. I tested them by hooking them together...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    Hi, so I set up my GoCoax adapters but I’m having a problem. The power light comes in and the LAN light blinks but the MOCA light doesn’t light up and I can’t get an internet connection.

    Thank you :)

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    A silly question maybe, but does it matter what length of RG6 coax cable I use? I'm planning to use a short 3' cable to hook up the GoCoax adapter to wall jack.
