The other ethernet port on the eero goes to a switch with various endpoints plugged into it. (Effectively replicating full duplex Gigabit Ethernet speeds … though with a minor latency hit.)Īre you currently using the coax for anything else? (Such as AT&T TV service connectivity.) However, in the dedicated MoCA link approach, the only sharing is between download and upload (to/from) between a pair of MoCA nodes, and the link being limited to 2 nodes nets a 25% “TURBO” mode performance improvement, bumping the shared throughput max for the dedicated link to 2500 Mbps. The motivation for such a configuration is the fact that MoCA is a shared medium, so all MoCA nodes in the typical setup share the MoCA 2.5 shared throughput maximum of 2000 Mbps, assuming 3+ nodes. The hitch is often assuming that the coax wall outlet in the remote room interconnects with the main MoCA adapter location, and through MoCA-compatible components (splitters, amp, barrel connectors…)Īn alternate approach, where budget allows and requirements mandate, is installing a pair of MoCA adapters for each distinct coax line, with a gigabit network switch bridging the traffic between the distinct MoCA links. You’d then hope to be able to connect your “client” MoCA adapters to coax wall outlets in the targeted rooms to effect a wired Ethernet connection for whatever devices are present. This main MoCA adapter would then need to be connected to the shared coax, to bridge the LAN onto the coax and in this typical “star” mesh setup, with a coax splitter at its center, only this one MoCA adapter would need to be connected to the router LAN (router or its switch). In your setup, you’re using a switch to extend the router LAN and increase the number of available Ethernet LAN ports so your main bridging MoCA adapter (effectively the MoCA access point) would need to be connected directly via Ethernet to a LAN port on this primary switch, what with the main eero being full-up. (psst … yes, I’m ignoring HPNA and g.Hn.) Fewer cable gateways and routers include a built-in MoCA/LAN bridge, and I’m not aware of any router’s with built-in Powerline. The main difference between them all, aside from medium, is that the ubiquity and simplicity of Wi-FI means that the wireless/LAN bridging component is built-in to most every router out there. It’s pretty straightforward, and not altogether different from Wi-Fi or Powerline, in a typical MoCA setup.Įach solution needs a single component to function as the bridge between the router’s LAN and the associated medium (air, coax or power lines), then remote client nodes that connect to/through this “access point” to get to the router LAN and Internet. u/RoweDent created this awesome resource on network theory u/tht1kidd_ has created a suggestion post regarding information everyone needs to provide when asking a question about their network There have been some excellent guides written in this sub, and we're always looking for more!
