    Upgraded from GoCoax WF-803M to MA2500D - Not seeing faster speeds

    FWIW, only the later A95 (VOX/LUX) Mini is standard MoCA 2.0; the two older A92/A93 Mini’s are MoCA 1.1. It’d be nice to find those hidden splitters, but if you’re happy…

    Upgraded from GoCoax WF-803M to MA2500D - Not seeing faster speeds

    A good MoCA 2.x connection would see around 700 Mbps PHY rate per channel, so a MoCA 2.5 link with 5 bonded channels would be around 3500 Mbps. edit: p.s. You could test the max possible rate by direct-connecting a pair of adapters using a short coax cable.

    Can't expect much better than that (3550 Mbps), I'd think.

    Frontier FCA251/FCA252 networks limited to 2 MoCA nodes when operating at 1475-1675 MHz ?!?!

    Dear @gocoax ... any feedback on this limitation for the FCA251 & FCA252 adapters? Any workaround to restore the default 16 node limit?

    Upgraded from GoCoax WF-803M to MA2500D - Not seeing faster speeds

    It would be interesting to see what you measure for throughput were you to move your 2nd MA2500D to the host Roamio location in place of the WF-803M, to explore how the improved PHY rates affect actual throughput.

    Have you pulled the wallplates to see if the hidden splitters are in the outlet box(es)?

    Upgraded from GoCoax WF-803M to MA2500D - Not seeing faster speeds

    Yikes, those PHY rates between MoCA 2.5 nodes are awful. They should be near 3500 Mbps. Can you detail the coax setup?

    MoCA issues after tenant/suite split

    You’d want to check your modem diagnostics to assess whether the signal strength is within the recommended range. That said, the typical approach is to use an initial 2-way splitter to get the modem connected with as little path loss as possible, then a secondary splitter to service the...

    New at Moca and need help. Will this work?

    If the MoCA signals have a physical path via coax to exit the home, a “PoE” MoCA filter is required to block MoCA from passing at the point-of-entry/exit. If the MoCA-infused coax segment is physically isolated and so has no path to exit the home, no “PoE” MoCA filter is required to secure the...

    New at Moca and need help. Will this work?

    Not sure what this means as no suggestion was made to drastically alter the setup; and however well it may be working, a “PoE” MoCA filter is required, as described in the prior reply and linked “outline” comment. If MoCA is already functioning absent a separate MoCA filter to protect the...

    New at Moca and need help. Will this work?

    MoCA is designed to use port hopping (passing between output ports), as described in one or more of the above links; regardless, a simple splitter doesn’t have filtering that would block MoCA signals … which is why the prior reply said that you may require a second “prophylactic” MoCA filter to...

    New at Moca and need help. Will this work?

    Yes, it should work ... provided a 70 dB "PoE" MoCA filter is added to the input port of the top-level 2-way splitter in the junction box, to secure the MoCA signals inside the residence (and also provide a reflective performance benefit to the MoCA signals). A second MoCA filter may be needed...

    Improving FTTP connection around the house?

    Separately, behind a TV may not be optimal placement of a critical wireless access point.

    Improving FTTP connection around the house?

    Any coax outlets around? If the coax is unused or if the needed frequencies are clear, and the lines are or can be interconnected using MoCA-compatible components, MoCA is a much more preferable alternative to extending the router LAN via wire than Powerline.

    Adapter for Co-ax cable tester

    Super cheap tone tracer… https://www.amazon.co.uk/RUANI-Finder-Generator-Network-Tracer/dp/B0BBT2QJ46/?tag=smallncom-21 … but should work, perhaps facilitated with a DIY adapter to more easily get the probes attached to the coax cable or outlet.

    Adapter for Co-ax cable tester

    Tester appears to be BNC female, I think; so you’d need a BNC male to “whatever” adapter, where “whatever” is the connector type needed for your cabling and or wall sockets. Or you could check for alternative testers designed for the task.

    Can Verizon CR1000B work with other brand MoCA adapters?

    You don’t connect any of its WAN ports. And a Reddit comment saying that they can’t get it to work isn’t evidence that it doesn’t work.

    Can Verizon CR1000B work with other brand MoCA adapters?

    Extended Band D, even, being MoCA 2.5, the default frequency range of pretty much all retail MoCA 2.5 adapters. But, yeah, the adapters need to be configured for the same operating frequency range to link. Yes, but just DOCSIS 3.1 “initial rollout” frequencies (through 1218 MHz) if in use; or...
