    MoCA and TiVo

    My network uses two Actiontec ECB6200 MoCA adapters - one to create the MoCA network and a second on the floor below. Other MoCA devices include a TiVo BOLT, TiVo Roamio and three TiVo Minis (v2). My Internet service is 1Gbs and typically tests at 850-950Mbs via a PC downstream of my modem...

    MoCA Network Analyzer

    Does anyone know of software (Windows or Android) that can analyze a MoCA network. I want to test speed to each adapter and whether they are operating at 1.1 or 2.0. Thanks. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    I'm looking for a reasonably priced (<$200) wired-only router with at least 6 LAN ports - single WAN OK. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    MoCA 2.0 Actiontech ECB6000

    Here are the instructions for the ECB6200 (same method for ECB6000). These are written for Windows, so you'll have to translate them to Mac. http://helpdeskgeek.com/networking/upgrade-actiontec-ecb6200-firmware/

    Noob MoCA configuration question

    You Your assumptions are correct. In order to accommodate MoCA 2.0 signals, all splitters must carry frequencies up to 1675MHz. Many splitters only go up to 1000MHz. Also, make sure you have a MoCA filter on the Internet entry point into your home.

    Actiontec ECB6200 MoCA Adapter Hookup

    Question answered. I tried both, both work, but the no splitter option results in a better signal to my modem.

    Noob MoCA configuration question

    Depending on the MoCA adapter you have at the Internet/modem location, there are two possibilities: (1) If your MoCA adapter has a coax input only, like the Actiontec ECB2500C or ECB6000, the wiring is as shown in Option #1 below: (2) If your MoCA adapter has a coax input and output (usually...

    Home Moca help

    To answer your questions: The only cable modem/router with MoCA is the Arris SBG-6782AC. It has a built-in MoCA 1.1 adapter. The one downside of this model is that the modem has only 8 downlink channels, rather than 16 or more. This might limit your speed if your Internet service is over...

    Streamboost?

    Does the Netgear Nighthawk X4S (R7800) include Qualcomm Streamboost? Do any of the other, current Netgear routers include it? Thanks

    So what's wrong with moca adapters?

    I am using an Actiontec Adapter (ECB6200) to create a MoCA 2.0 network. It supports my 4 TiVo boxes nicely. In addition, I am using an Actiontec WCB6200Q MoCA wireless access point (AP) for my WiFi. This enables me to locate the wireless AP at the cable outlet closest to the center of my...

    Actiontec ECB6200 MoCA Adapter Hookup

    I am trying to determine the best way to hookup my ECB6200 MoCA adapter with my cable modem. The objective is to provide the best possible cable signal to the modem and the MoCA adapter to eliminate modem timeouts (T3,T4) which occur with some frequency, and still provide a good MoCA signal for...

    Wired Router w QOS

    I'm looking for a 4+ port wired router that can provide DHCP and effective QOS for a single 180 Mbps WAN Internet connection. I am currently using a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter POE which has only 3 available LAN ports and can only provide QOS up to about 90 Mbps WAN. Any recommendations appreciated.

    Ubiquiti EdgeRouter POE QOS Settings

    I am using an EdgeRouter POE with my Comcast 150/10 Internet service The actual tested speeds are 180/12. Without QOS, my bufferbloat is "D" or "F" consistently. Enabling the EdgeRouter QOS with settings at 180/12 results in "A" bufferbloat, but my download speed drops to 90 and upload to 6...
