    I have two holland MoCa POE in my parts box. One for before the 4 way and one for voice modem input. Wife said she will have the office/computer room free of her clothing this weekend. SO hopefully I can move forward sooner than later.

    so leave the AMP and add a POE filter to the input side of the four way? sounds too easy but doable. adding an additional POE filter to the voice modem coax input would also be doable. I guess the most difficult part of this solution will be me getting to the upper gateway lol (the...

    your diagram accurately illustrates my current coax network sans MoCa connections and you modifications make sense. basement AMP: as mentioned in a previous post, the cable company installed the AMP in an attempt to fix a "movie rental issue" the actual solution involved a billing error on the...

    Coax network: I plan to proceed with my last diagram. in short, I will be eliminating the coax run from the basement to the attic (I don't believe I correctly showed the cable runs in my original diagrams) What I found was that the cable splits on the outside of the house (at the cable...

    What is optimal signal strength I should be seeing at the TV boxes? I will test signal strength with and without AMP attached to get baseline data Here are my thoughts on the cable routing: The coax comes off the pole and down the side of the house to a cable company enclosure and splits : one...

    this is just for starters :( off the three way spilt is yet another dual split. this all needs to cleaned up and sorted out! I am wondering if I shouldn't sort out the coax in the basement with the intent on splitting the signal between the phone modem (basement) and the two outlets on the...
