MoCA Internet Over Coax


On Charter/Spectrum

I have an Orbi mesh router and WiFi speed is fantastic. However, my Nvidia Shield WiFi was unsatisfactory and irritating. This did the trick. Does it totally cure the Shield's weak network speed?
No - but it is a dramatic improvement. I'm convinced that my Shield has a problem with network speed. I have several and they differ in how well they handle speed.

Actiontec Bonded MoCA 2.0

I receive Internet only from Spectrum. My TV comes from a roof UHF antenna.



One side of splitter goes to the MoCA IN
MoCA OUT goes to Modem
Connect NIC to a Router port

Other side of splitter goes to TV distribution.
I connected to an open port and it worked fine.
I did not need a second diplexer splitter as you might need if your TV and Internet signals conflict.


If you need to use a diplexer, here is a diagram. You can find this diagram in one buyer's comments on Amazon also.
