If the family room is where all the load is, then keep the modem/router there. So yes, relocating the modem and router to the splitter location would add a node. as long as there is no contention, each pair can communicate at full sync speed. More nodes on a "logical cable" through a splitter increases the contention. But adding probably 5-8 dB of signal loss is likely his issue now. He also may have swapped out an amplified cable splitter for an unamplified moca compatible splitter keeping the same number of ports. Since we don't know what modem model and ISP service (although they advertise up to 1Gb over coax or FTTH which suggests likely DOCCIS3.1 to me). Devices in the Living Room that previously connected directly via Ethernet with the router would now be competing for the MoCA bandwidth. Arguably, moving the modem and router to the central location would throttle traffic more than increase it, since doing so would require an additional MoCA node for the Living Room. That said, there’s longer-term benefit from moving the modem to where its signal can be isolated from MoCA, given the overlap between MoCA frequencies and the newer DOCSIS 3.1 spec.Įdit: p.s. Right? (Were the WAN connection also using MoCA, competing for the same frequencies, it would be an issue.) The traffic passing over the same stretch of coax is no more concerning than were it passing over Cat6, since the modem (DOCSIS) and MoCA traffic are operating at different frequencies, so functioning without concern or effect on each other. There’d be a lot of unsatisfied MoCA customers were it true. The OP diagram is both the suggested and a typical MoCA install (aside from the oversized splitter and missing “PoE” MoCA filter). Moca Adapter Model: TIVO Bridge (ActionTec ECB6000) MoCA 2.0 and Actiontec ECB6200K02 MoCA 2.0Ĭlick to expand.This most definitely wouldn’t be the case. Moca Splitter Model: BAMF 6-Way Coax Cable Splitter Bi-Directional MoCA 5-2300MHz ( ) It seems it is losing lots of signals at my splitter level. I have ordered Coax Terminator so I can install it in open ports. Note: My Moca Splitter is installed in Basement but since I like to keep my router in Family room, I have modem and Router installed in Family room. Again, I try to reboot my Modem and NetGrear ORBI Router and will work for sometimes and it will stops working again. It will work sometimes and it will stop working. Problem is I am not able to get reliable internet in my two bedrooms using ethernet wire. I have installed Moca Adapter per attached diagram. My ISP provider is Optimum online and I use only Internet service from them. Recently I decided to install Moca adapter to utilize existing Coax wiring into Data Network so I can use Ethernet in other rooms.
