    PoE for DOCSIS 3.1 (Xfinity)

    I posted this awhile ago. http://www.snbforums.com/threads/gocoax-moca-2-5-adapter.59499/post-686893 Not really, sadly. Pretty much my only option is to add coax for a dedicated run to the modem, and then run MoCA over the currently existing plant. But since I'm just using the MoCA for...

    PoE for DOCSIS 3.1 (Xfinity)

    thanks! How did you ever find that on their site? Now to see if I can actually get my hands on one ;)

    PoE for DOCSIS 3.1 (Xfinity)

    Ugh, so Xfinity went and started using spectrum above 1GHz in my area. After an upgrade to their equipment, my CM1150V shows the start of the downstream OFDM channel at 955MHz, which means the top is at around 1150MHz :( I've configured my goCoax to give me 4 channels starting at 1250, so no...

    Moca Adapter To Spectrum Modem

    Each PoE between the street and the modem will add about 0.5dBmV of attenuation. Putting a PoE on the 6way splitter input will block MoCA from reaching the basement. Putting it on the modem only makes sense if the MoCA signals confuse it, but I doubt they will. Best to wait and see before...

    Moca Adapter To Spectrum Modem

    Odd. I guess they've locked down the access then :( There's definitely an IP listening (that's why you got the warning about another computer using .1). Oh well, it's not as important as before when we thought there were multiple levels of splitters in there. A single 2-way splitter between...

    Moca Adapter To Spectrum Modem

    the first image is correct, you're setting the laptop's IP to 192.168.100.2. The netmask is ok, but you could try 255.255.255.0 instead. For the 2nd and 3rd pics did you try setting the laptop to .1? The last pic makes it seem that way. Keep the laptop as .2 and keep trying. In your...

    Moca Adapter To Spectrum Modem

    Ok, that makes things easier conceptually. What you need to do is add the 2-way splitter you ordered after the orange cable, with the PoE filter on the splitter input. One branch will connect to the family room cable, and the other to the cable in your flower pot (which we beileve goes to the...

    Moca Adapter To Spectrum Modem

    I actually have the 3rd one on your list but haven't yet installed it since things are working well enough (using a BAMF 2-way splitter I get 4 bonded channels right now, no need to rock the boat to get that 5th). Be aware that the 6-way splitter you bought is passive, so DO NOT hook the power...

    Moca Adapter To Spectrum Modem

    Looks like the amp they pointed you to differs from the one I gave you in that it has a single port that's passive...they call it the VoIP port. That's for if power goes out, then at least that port will still operate w/out amplification. You'd want that going to your modem (assuming it has...

    New to AiMesh

    When the 5300 was rebooting, your clients connected to the ac1750 since it was the only game in town. They'll likely stick with that even if there's a stronger signal available, at least for a little while. You can force them to bind to the 5300 through the AiMesh clients list (the first...

    Moca Adapter To Spectrum Modem

    only if it's an amp like you have. a passive splitter will not need that.

    Moca Adapter To Spectrum Modem

    Now I'm confused. Looking at your drawing from a few days ago, if the spectrum signal is coming in through your 2C port, then there must be a splitter somewhere between the powered splitter in the garage and your family room, or one of O1,2,4 cables are what actually goes to the family room...

    Moca Adapter To Spectrum Modem

    Where is the Spectrum coax entering? Does it feed into the powered splitter? Anyway, if you have a PoE filter on C2, that will block any moca signal from going out O3 to the basement. you would want the PoE on the Spectrum feed going into the splitter, and perhaps a second one on the coax...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    Sorry to kick an old thread, but I ran across this when asking the same question about getting 4 bonded channels with the goCoax adapters. I found that selecting D-Ext and D-High (unchecking D-Low), and setting LOF to 1275 gives me 4 channels. I can have two laptops each sending data to each...

    Signal Issue with Moca Network in my house

    As a recent moca adopter and TM822 owner, I'd say yes, give that splitter a try. I started with a BAMF 4-way splitter, and found that that introduced enough signal loss to push my modem out of Arris' signal strength sweet spot. Hooking up the 3.5dB loss output from the above splitter to your...
