Is this switch connected to the router's LAN? (It would need to be.) (MoCA adapters use a diplexer, internally, to redirect the frequencies where needed, rather than using a simple splitter, so the 'IN/OUT' port on the Translite is designed to pass frequencies up to 1002 MHz.)Ģ) The diagram indicates that the MoCA adapter is connected to a switch. ! Critically, if the router's WAN connection is via MoCA or a FiOS set-top box is hanging off that 2-way splitter, they MUST NOT be connected via the MoCA adapter's pass-through port, as the 'IN/OUT' pass-through port severely attenuates signals at MoCA frequencies. ? Are the devices pictured in the same room/location? ? Are you also subscribed to FiOS TV service? ? Can the router be connected via Ethernet to the ONT? ? What is your ONT's WAN connection type, Ethernet WAN or MoCA WAN?

? What is the brand/model # of the router? And that you have a TV connected downstream of the MoCA adapter, as well. You can get same size and just cap off unused ports with 75 ohm caps.1) The diagram appears to show the router ONLY connected via coax, via the MoCA adapter's pass-through port. If you have to distribute moca signals over other coax legs, then that splitter will have to be replaces with moca2 certified splitter of whatever number of ports you need to connect. If that is the case ( i would ask for a split system, but it is up to the installer and supplies), then you will run ethernet cable from a lan port on the att router to the moca modem attached to your coax, coax, attch moca modem and connect ethernet cable to either another router, a switch, a computer or an Access Point. Sometimes you can get the ATT installer to work with you on the location. In that case, you will have to locate the router/ont at the demarc point which is likely to be very close to that wiring panel. Some of the ATT onts may be combined with the router from what i have heard. If you can do the same, i would suggest doing so. I take the ethernet port from my ATT fiber direct into a gocoax moca 2.5 modem, across a direct RG6 coax to another gocoax and then ethernet into the ATT router. Since I will be disconnecting the Xfinity upstream and there will be no possibility of leakage / interference outside the house, is there any point to installing a filter? If direct connection wouldn't work, is the Antronix CMC2004H adequate to MOCA 2.5? Presumably a generic RG6 cable-cable connector would do for this?

For my use case, it would make sense to directly connect the cable from the entry point room to the office cable in the utility closet and bypass the splitter entirely, since I have no need to route ethernet elsewhere at present, and no use for the rest of the house cable once I have connectivity to the office. The cable appears to be RG-6/U - will that support MOCA 2.5 at full throughput? Once I've established MOCA connectivity I would disconnect the upstream cable at the splitter to avoid signal leakage. I'm not sure which cables I need, but presumably some testing with a laptop at the utility closet to my office, and then to the room with the entry point, can establish that if the cables themselves are good. I expect the black cable going into the Antronix CMC2004H splitter is the Xfinity upstream. The existing cable setup can be seen in attached photo.

WiFi 6E performance through two rooms and 1+ walls with wireless backhaul sounds disappointing, so MOCA 2.5 may be the answer.Ĭonsidering a pair of goCoax MA2500D adapters into the house cable from the room with the fiber entry point into the office, whence onto my ethernet LAN. It's not practical to run an ethernet cable from the entry point to my office it's a rental and the owner does not want me doing any work whatsoever. I'm migrating from Xfinity (cable) to AT&T 1 Gig Fiber - then planned to move to Sonic 10 Gig within a year - and fiber is going to be coming into a part of the house far removed from my office.
