Hi everyone
I recently bought a SBG6782-AC cable Modem/Wireless Gateway and I would like to try to install Moca in the house. However I am a bit confused as if I need a Moca adapter at my cable modem. My thoughts were I don't as I thought that this modem may have the adapter built in. So if I split the line coming in by 2 one would go to my cable modem and the other to another 4 way splitter which would extend to my garage,bed1 bed2 and master bed at that end I would hook up a 4 port Moca adapter that would give internet to my TV, Blue Ray Player Xbox and Computers in each room. Note I don't have TV Cable as I only ordered Cable Internet.
If this is not correct, then my guess would be I do need some type of adapter at my cable modem then follow the same procedure as described above to each room.
Since I don't have cable TV, I also will be getting Dish Network in the coming days with a couple hoppers and 2 Joeys which also use Moca of some kind, but I am told they are not compatible with regular Cable internet Moca? Anyway I guess I need to keep the two Moca Networks separate from each other in order for everything to work correctly. My plan was just to run new RG6 cable to where all the new dish network devices will be hooked up. But since One of the hoppers will be connected to the Cable Modem Gateway so the hoppers can connect to the internet then all the Devices should see each other, unless I am missing something which is possible.
I really don't have much of a clue what to do, maybe someone could give me some help on working this all out.
Thank You, Mike
