I'm surprised it isn't better known also. The percentage of homes with built-in coax must far outstrip those with ethernet (although that will probably be changing over time). I was at Best Buy earlier this week to look at the SB6782 and there was a Geek Squad "Home Theater Installation"...

I have an SB6120, which is DOCIS 3.0 also, but I'm assuming an earlier model. I got it in June 2010. See my post above about what I *think* "built-in MoCA" means. Ditto. Although I think Stevech has a good point about avoiding finger-pointing by using Comcast's device. Fortunately, it...

My question (or confusion) about MoCA and this particular all-in-one has to do with one of its features being listed as "MoCA networking for smart devices." To me this means that if this modem were plugged into a router then you could just hook up a MoCA-ready device--like a Tivo...

Abailey--thanks for the input. That diagram you have is very helpful too. I do have a question: I don't see a MoCA adapter at your cable modem, which looks very much like a Motorola SB6782AC. I've just recently run across this and it is a combo modem, 4-port Gb switch, and wireless AC...

Hi Tim, Thanks for the welcome and the response. I'm going to dig into those two docs ASAP. They are a couple/three years old and are ZyXEL PLA401v4 HomePlug AV 200 Mbps units. I've never really tested what kind of throughput they are doing. I just have one at my router and the...

I saw the same video, and a few others too. Arris had a similar device that I actually called them about but it sounded like they plan on selling it only to cable providers. Wish they were available now! STP Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

Very happy to have come across this site. I've been trying to get my wits wrapped around this topic at sites like AVS Forums, with limited success. I want to expand my home theater/AV centers (living and bedroom) to include an HTPC. Replacing two Comcast DVR's and their monthly fees in the...

Here's a quote from a press release re TP-Link gigabit powerline adapters. I haven't seen one in the wild yet though and we're into Q2 now.... LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- TP-LINK, a global provider of networking products, today announced the TL-PA8010 AV1000 Gigabit Powerline...
