    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    Sorry. Here's the basic point that I noticed: Upstream is -10 and -9 dBmV; Downstream is 53dBmV. According to someone's previous post, this is even _worse_ than when I first posted the numbers. Also, the house is currently unoccupied (family away), so we only have ourselves hooked up to Wifi...

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    I forgot - I also just looked at the cable info, and this is what I got. This seems even worse than before, if I've read the above posts directly. It's strange because the landlord and family are gone, so there is _only_ myself and my wife's phone currently on our Internet network. From one of...

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    This is a new update. It took this long for me to get a new 3-way MoCA-friendly splitter and get it put in and check the adaptec ECBs. I just put this all in place, and I got nothing. I then went outside and located the house lines, and I saw that there were in fact two separate lines (white...

    MoCA Network Help

    I've read a lot of the posts on POE filters and rummaged through the Internet; this filter came up a lot, so I ordered one...

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    Okay. So here's my latest piece of info. I plugged my cable set top box into the wall coax, and the STB time set itself. As I mentioned before, I do not have a TV, so I can't check full functionality, but at the least, it seems to me this indicates the STB is receiving some kind of sync signal...

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    Not from my landlord's point of view - he provides the extra cable set top box as part of the rental agreement. Perhaps if we do have to re-do the coax cable, I can talk him into adding the CAT5e line. He really has little interest in dealing with the Internet functionality at home, so it's kind...

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    I think my post must've been unclear - I _did_ get a connection w/ the 6" cable; so the adapters are good. It's either the line, or the connector on my end, or whatever splitter or junction there might be in the walls that's likely the culprit. My guess is that I pulled the line too hard at some...

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, being in Brooklyn, I don't have the ability to discern what cable goes where - there are two nests of lines outside of both my apartment and outside of the upstairs house (landlord's), but I really can't tell whether they are cable or old telephone or what...

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    This will serve as an update. I've now checked the adapters two ways: (1) I removed the phone and internet modems (and splitters) and hooked adapter 1 directly to the line, then hooked second adapter 2 to my end of the line. Result: no coax signal communication. (2) I connected both adapters...

    Okay, I'm going to try and upload this diagram I made. Not sure if the PDF will display okay, but fingers crossed.

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    And question about what you wrote earlier: It's not apparent from my diagram, but basically, there's a 1-2 split that then splits 1-2 and to which the Internet modem and the phone modem are attached. The first split has the MOCA coax line and then the second splitter. I'm sure it's just a...

    Thanks for letting me know.

    Sorry, I realized I should just share the shots through upload and links.

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    Hi, Thanks to both of you for your responses. I'm going to see if I can run up and test the MOCA adapters with a separate piece of coax I have lying around - I actually have a lot. It's a little bit awkward, though, because the modems and router are in my landlord's bedroom, and while he...

    MOCA network died (Actiontec ECB2500c pair)

    I have tried lurking and searching to no avail. I'm simply looking for some troubleshooting advice on my MOCA network. The main cable line of the house I live in - myself in the basement, my landlord above - includes Internet, cable and cable phone line. I installed a MOCA network using once...
