    Connecting my Asus GT-BE98 Pro router to a Verizon TV+ network

    To be clear, this adapter enables EITHER a direct Ethernet or MoCA wired connection for the Stream TV / TV+ box. (And, interestingly, it also bridges between the Ethernet and MoCA/coax ports, so if it's used as a MoCA adapter for the Stream TV / TV+ box, it could also supply a wired Ethernet...

    Connecting my Asus GT-BE98 Pro router to a Verizon TV+ network

    The TV+ client boxes are natively wireless-only, but can be wired-up via Ethernet or MoCA — provided you request the special “StreamTV MoCA Ethernet Adapter” (model# ASK-MAE311): ASK-MAE311 product page user guide They’re supposedly provided gratis, one per TV+ client — if requested. But this...

    Connecting my Asus GT-BE98 Pro router to a Verizon TV+ network

    Well, one option is to cancel the TV service and go with YouTube TV (or similar). As a spectator, I haven't seen anyone solve this for Verizon's new TV+ boxes; they seem to require connectivity through a Verizon router to maintain connectivity. (Have seen /r/FiOS reddit threads where people have...

    Not sure why the need to shade MoCA. Works great when installed DIY on dark coax, as well.

    MoCA setup to share both TV and DATA in the UK, some advice needed please.

    Ditto what was posted to your reddit thread... Yes, such MoCA adapters use an internal diplexer (dual filters) to strategically route the signals where needed with less loss than using a passive coax split. In an OTA+MoCA setup, you can use antenna/satellite diplexers to achieve the same...

    Issues with Verizon CR1000B, Hitron MoCA HT-EM5 adpaters, and Netgear RAX70

    Neither this description or the diagram make clear that the topology isn't hostile to MoCA, let alone being sub-optimal. If there's only the single MoCA adapter being linked, 3 GHz F-81 barrel connectors should be used to join coax lines, where needed, to effect a direct connection between the...

    List of MoCa 2.5 Devices [Updated 8/25/20]

    Distinct from their latest MA2500C/D adapters, but, yes, a similar shape to the original goCoax WF-803M (white) ... and the white Frontier FCA251 (WF-803FT) and black Frontier FCA252. Still haven't seen anything discussing their performance in the wild.

    New MoCA 2.5 Access adapter: Frontier FMT25A

    FYI... Posted to a reddit thread by user Bulls729, there's a new MoCA-based device in town... Frontier FMT25A MoCA 2.5 Access CPE (eBay search) Critically, it's characterized as "MoCA 2.5 Access" and with a fixed operating frequency of 400-900 MHz (see pg.2 of the user guide), so it would...

    List of MoCa 2.5 Devices [Updated 8/25/20]

    I'm wondering if this new not-exactly-MoCA 2.5 adapter from Frontier is the reason for the dwindling supplies of the FCA252.

    So Mom gave me a MoCa project and I'm stumped...

    “Without it plugged in” is ambiguous. “Not plugged in” could mean “not powered-on” … which, yeah, would kill the cable signal on all amplified outputs. “Not plugged-in through the amp” could mean that the cable modem has been wired to bypass the amp, and cannot sync with the provider in this...
