    Help with Moca backhaul - newbie

    I read the Moca brochure and it helped me understand a bit more. Putting the POE filter at the splitter input acts as a mirror for the signal and effectively doubles the signal strength. For just 3 coax, it probably doesnt matter - I happened to have a moca 2.5 splitter 1 input 2 outputs, so...

    Help with Moca backhaul - newbie

    Thank you for the clarifications on the different splitter toplogies. It really helped me understand what options you were communicating. From what I read, putting a POE filter along with a termination at the splitter input helps with reflections. But what about the comment that the input...

    Help with Moca backhaul - newbie

    OK. So I tried a bunch of stuff. Attached is my final (current) config. The netgear mesh shows that the backhaul is using the wired backhaul, not wifi. What I discovered is that even though the moca network has no direct connection to my router all the satellites AND the hardware attached...

    Help with Moca backhaul - newbie

    well it turns out that one of my potential moca connections is in a very inconvenient place that will take a while to get to (requires lots of bookcases movement to get to the cable outlet.) So I need to do something in the meanwhile at that location. Attached are 1d and 1e options to bypass...

    Help with Moca backhaul - newbie

    Thank you. I was reading somewhere that the speeds between the output to Moca on a splitter are slower than from input to output. If so, should the moca from the main mesh unit be connected to the input to the splitter? Also you mentioned that a POE filter should be added to the input on the...

    Help with Moca backhaul - newbie

    now I am confused. Config 1b seems the simplest. But I am at a loss how to connect the splitter. All the topology examples linked looked like my original config 1 where the input coax was split along with the Moca. Per your suggestion, I did config 1b and removed the splitter and broke the...

    Help with Moca backhaul - newbie

    Taking config 1b, with the moca splitter - I looked at your recommended moca splitters and not sure how to hook it up. The moca splitters have 1 in and X out. In config 1b, all three legs seem equal, so not sure which one should connect to the "in" on the splitter. On config 2b - the netgear...

    Help with Moca backhaul - newbie

    Yes, of course! The splitter amp was there when I had cable TV and never removed it when I canceled cable TV. But since I dont have cable TV any more, its no longer needed. So do u recommend 1b or 2b (attached)

    Help with Moca backhaul - newbie

    I am attempting to establish a Moca backhaul from my Netgear RBR50 to my two RBS50 satellites that I use as wireless AP. Attached is a wiring diagram that I wonder will work. (config 1) The Moca just connects to each router and satellite without a switch or network. Since the netgear says that...
