I've been using several MI424WR's for MoCA distribution for a couple of years without problem. However, yesterday I had my Cox cable service upgraded to Trio (whole-home DVR), and now I can't get my Actontec units to recognize a coax signal. They installed some kind of filter or attenuator between the wall outlet and the cable modem. If I take this off and connect the wall outlet directly to an Actiontec, it still won't see a signal. If I hook to Actiontecs together with a plain coax cable they see each other just fine. I think Cox also installed an active amplifier at the Point of Entry, since we had poor signal strength. Cable TV and cable modem are working fine. I've tried to find a solution in this forum and elsewhere but I haven't been able to find anything relevant. Does anyone out there have any ideas? Thanks!
