Motorola MoCA Adapter for Ethernet Over Coax, Plug and Play, Ultra Fast Speeds, Boost Home Network for Better Streaming and Gaming (1 Gbps – MoCA 2 Pack)

Seemed expensive for what I needed. We were just running on empty coax, no other signals present. They were plugged in and they worked, with 0 loss of internet speed from the modem. The cost is why not 5 star.

35 Mbs to 140 enough said.

Plug and play. Works great and less expensive than fishing Ethernet line through walls.

I needed to add an access point to the addition on our house. Unfortunately, there was no easy way to run a CAT6 cable into the room and all that was available was an existing but unused coax cable. Setup was a breeze. I literally plugged the MoCA boxes into each end of the cable and ran a network cable to each end. Within seconds of turning on the MoCA adapters, I had a gigabit connection to that room. Piece of cake to setup and so much easier than running network cables!

I have used another brand before, I wanted to try these. Motorola thinks of everything when they pack the box. Super easy to hook up. Tried speedtest and it was pulling network speed. I am now streaming stuff through that segment and no problem at all. If this is as tough as the commercial Motorola I used at the fire department, then I am set. Great value

These things are legit! It took all of 10 minutes to hook up these two adapters. I have one at my main router and the second in my home theater area. I purchased a 5 port Ethernet switch to connect my Xbox, receiver, and TiVo to my 2nd MoCa Adapter. I had little to no speed loss on my Xbox (see photos). I am extremely pleased with how easy these are to set up and how well they transfer data. A little pricey, but worth the expense in my opinion. Get these if your home is wired with coax and you want to transmit a strong signal throughout your home.

Using these to get gigabit to two hard to reach (with Ethernet) rooms in my two story house. They work perfectly so far.

I bought (actually I bought two of these) a two-pack of these MoCA Adapters to stretch the network in my new home. The first hooked up easily enough and even the second Adapter was hooked up pretty easily too. Unfortunately the first Adapter seemed to be flaky though and left me with the impression that these just arent as reliable and durable as the same basic item from another manufacturer (ActionTec in my case). I had hopes that I could rely on these, and certainly wouldnt have ordered the second set of these if I knew that I was going to have issues with them soon after putting them to use. The other manufacturers product has not had issues, and ironically the second of the first two pack that I bought has been rocking along like it should leaving me with that question of reliability and potentially quality control of some of these devices. Why would one work and the other that came in the same shipment/box not work reliably? Thats the question that keeps me from wanting to buy more or give up a better rating here. 2 wary stars for this product. If it works for you, and you can use it reliably, then consider yourself lucky. If it doesnt work, or doesnt stay working, then perhaps you had the same problems I did, which might be solved by firmware updates (if possible), or might just be an issue were stuck with, leaving this item as a poor choice for long-term problem solving.

Updating house to reduce WiFi traffic

In summary: Im happy with the pair. The speeds I get are adequate. I dont get gigabit speeds, but theyre quite high. My network is probably the limiting factor, not the adapters. They allowed me to turn a DD-WRT oriented wireless bridge using an Asus RT-AC66U-B1 into a wired access point. I wanted to get better wireless in that area of the house. Details: The DD-WRT / Asus RT-AC66U-B1 wireless bridge worked well but I wanted a stronger wireless signal in that area by turning the Asus wireless bridge into a wired access point. Later, I decided to replace DD-WRT with stock Asus firmware so that I could turn the RT-AC66U-B1 into an AiMesh node. An AiMesh capable Asus RT-AC68U is the main access point in the house. The main router is pfSense. The MOTOROLA MoCA Adapters extended the wired connection into that area of my home. AiMesh performed erratically. All Asus firmware was up to date. A tivo mini kept losing the wired signal from the AiMesh node. At first I wondered if the MOTOROLA MoCA Adapters were the problem, but swapping out the AiMesh node RT-AC66U-B1 with a spare Netgear R7000 using stock firmware as a wired access point returned stability to the tivo mini. I had similar problems a long time ago with Asus firmware in wireless bridge mode, causing me to install DD-WRT on the RT-AC66U-B1. It appears to work OK as a wired access point, though.
