Convinced my parents to drop Verizon TV & switch to YouTube TV.
Their track house builder didn't give them any patch panel & so the VZ folks just basically punched a hole through the siding from the VZ ONT box & ran coax into 4 rooms: den, family, master, & guest.
Since I don't see a way to easily or cheaply to pull ethernet to even one of those rooms, I'd figured a MoCA adapter would be able to take coax coming out of the wall & into the ethernet port of a new WiFi router. This router would serve internet to all the Roku's & Chromecast in their house for TV & video content streaming.
So the plan is to get rid of VZ set top boxes; get rid of the GS1100 VZ router & adapt the coax in the den into ethernet into a new router capable of sending wifi, MoCA, or powerline to rest of house
Questions:
1) Which MoCA adapter options can I look into bridging the coax into the ethernet of the new non-VZ WiFi router if I just need internet not VZ TV?
2) Is there any speed caps or degradation when using a MoCA adapter?
3) Do I need a MoCA POE Filter?
