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)

needed a new wired Ethernet drop in a location where it would be VERY difficult to pull new cable. But, there was an existing RG-6 coax drop nearby. So, I put these MOCA adapters at each end of the drop, pulled the Ethernet from one to a switch, and from the other to the office equipment. Works perfectly.

Bought a new house that has a separated pool house and needed a way to get the network to the second building. The pool house was already wired for cable tv running undergound from the main house so I figured I would buy one of these and set up a Wifi Extender in the pool house attached to this. The install was super easy (plug and play really) and once all setup it works great! I have used Ethernet over powerline items before and this just blew the speed and reliability of those right out of the water. I liked it so much I ended up buying another pair to install a wifi extender into the master bedroom just to save the hassle of running Ethernet wire. (Speeds have been consistent at 800mbps to 900mbps which makes sense given the length of the run.)

These MoCA boxes perform great! I get 1 gbps with <5ms ping using speedtest.net through this and two routers! If highly recommend this if you dont have an Ethernet run across your house and can use the preexisting coax!

Turns every room into a network drop

While the was hesitant to purchase do to the cost, I am so happy I did. I have a condo with vaulted ceilings on the main floor which sits on a slab. My networking equipment is upstairs, so there really wasnt a good way to run network cable from upstairs to downstairs, and not to have it on the walls. I never had heard of these before now. Note that these do come with POE filters, I didnt realize and had bought a separate one. I connected the main one to my router and then the second one I put down in my living room with a network switch in the uplink port. Speed tests were amazing! I have WOW 1gig internet. I got 247 down on my PS4 and over 700 down on my AppleTV. The cost was well worth it. Before I could never break 100 down on the PS4 over wifi or trying to use powerline adapters. I highly recommend this product. If you are on the fence on getting these like I was due to cost and other disappointing experiences with other devices,

My house is set up with three cable home runs with one modem feeding my router. I used these MoCa adapters to feed internet to a Roku Ultra, and a Roku TV. My internet service is 200 upload/50 download. I stalled the filter where the cable drop comes into the house. With this set up everything worked fine. The only issue was the MoCa adapters seem to be limited to 100mbs. Not an issue, I never had buffering issues while streaming movies. Gaming would be a problem!!! Recently I added a splitter to one of the bedroom homeruns to feed cable into our spare bedroom. The same cable that feeds the modem. The MoCa adapters were back feeding internet into the splitter and spare bedroom cable causing the cable to be very unstable. Moving the filter close to the main MoCa adapter fixed the cable issue in the spare bedroom but cause all three adapters to lose their link. So I removed the MoCa adapters and upgraded my router to a mesh system. Not I have 200 download/50upload WiFi everywhere in the house. Shouldve done that in the first place...

Great device. Works like a charm. I use it in Italy where I live, bought an European connector adapter for the power supply (which is universal 110 - 240 V), connected the coax antenna cable and voila! My gigabit lan is extended to the whole apartment! A great and more reliable alternative to wifi and powerline system. Highly recommended.

One of the most affordable bonded MOCA 2.0 solutions on Amazon. I just upgraded my pair of YTMC-51N1-M2 to these. I was getting roughly 35 to 40 MBps, and now am reliably getting 85-100 MBps. Huge improvement, very happy.

My mind was blown when I realized MoCA is really just a fancy way of running ethernet over coaxial cable without impacting Cable Internet or TV service on the same line. My cable router sits down stairs above my fireplace and my office is in an awkward spot above the garage on the opposite side of the house. Ive essentially been running two separate networks and have been connecting my office network to the downstairs network using a TP-link wireless repeater acting as a Bridge due to the WIFI signal from downstairs being bad and running ethernet cable is impossible because the office ceiling is right up against the shingles (no roof crawl space). The quality has always been meh. There is an existing coax connector in the office (and bedroom) which I assumed was strictly for TV. After researching MoCA I realized that I already have a hard line down to the Cable router in the form of the Coaxial cable already in the walls. Using these devices Ive converted ethernet to coax and back to ethernet again and now have a hardline to the rest of the network. Ive done speedtests and iperfs and can confirm I get full gigabit across these two device. ***One thing to note is that you cant change the default IP addresses of the MoCA adapters from 192.168.0.2 to anything else. This caused a bit of an issue for me because my pihole used to be on that address so I would get MAC address flaps between pihole and the MoCA adapter. Simple solution was to change piholes address. Ive attached a network diagram for clarity on my use case, hopefully it can help someone else have an ah ha moment

My son wanted a wired connection to his gaming computer. I used the coax in his bedroom and put the other adapter in my structured media panel. Our max internet speed is 300mbps and it regularly tests about 260 - 280.
