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

    Awesome. Since MaxLinear is the only game in town you see the same general form factor too. The chipset vendors provide a 'reference-design' that you can just copy and make gear. The next effect is that the performance, provided they followed the recommendations, should be identical from...

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

    That's because there's only one vendor of MoCA 2.5 chipsets: MaxLinear so all OEMs take the software from MaxLinear and simply rebrand it.

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    For completeness, keep in mind that the signalling rate is higher than the effective throughput. *If* the MoCA adapter had a sufficiently fast Ethernet port you would see 2.5Gpbs. In reality, you will be limited by the 1Gpbs port. Some newer MoCA 2.5 adapters are starting to appear with the...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    The table shows From / To. So node 0 has a signalling MAC rate of 701 (time 5), Node 1 has a rate of 698 (time 5), and so forth. You read the table by looking at the speed from one node to another. So the signalling rate from node 2 to node 1 is 3455. And from 1 to 2 is 3463. You are seeing...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    According to your posts, you should be getting 1 Gbps on all locations. The MoCA adapters have a signalling rate of > 3 Gbps between nodes, so you should have great connectivity. From the point of view of the diag. page you are looking at, nodes will be assigned numbers based on which ones are...

    goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter

    As @jrmtz85 states, this is a straight forward troubleshooting. Test just 2 adapters. First basement to living room, get rid of the splitter.... Then test basement to master. And so forth. I'm wondering if the thin coax is RJ-59 and old / damaged. ideally you want RJ-6 quad-shield. Also...

    Zyxel HLA4205 questions with Gig internet

    I use these and work great, but be aware that for iperf3 testing you can only achieve the highspeed with parallel mode. Try with the -P parameter and maybe 5 streams.

    Other similar products include the Zyxel MoCA 2.0 bridge and the Motoroal MoCA 2.0 bridge; same factory.

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

    Ah those Actiontec listings must be new, thanks for pointing out. Other OEM relationships include the Teamly TDNM250 and the Kiwee units appear to the the same device.

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

    Some of these are also OEM units; I believe the GoCoax is actually manufactured by CIG (Cambridge Industries Group): https://www.cigtech.com/home-networking/ Or GoCoax is the retail branding they are using in the US; don't know. But the GoCoax WF-803M seems the same as the CIG WF-803M.

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

    I don't believe the Actiontec is available outside telco OEM use... so most everyone reading this won't be able to purchase them. Also worth mentioning (and double checking if you can...) that all MoCA 2.5 devices today are using the Maxlinear chipset. I understand other vendors, such as...

    Swtiching over from Powerline to Moca 2.0 - New Setup Help

    Sorry, I don't see the problem... The last screenshot shows how from adapter 1 to adapter 2 you have 3.5Gbps and from adapter 2 to adapter 1 you also have 3.5Gbps. Thats the physical layer connection (PHY) so you should have 2.5Gbps bandwidth. The adapters only have 1Gbps Ethenret ports so the...

    Another Cheap Moca 2.0 non-bonded adapter

    No, it doesn't seem like the MoCA firmware has been updated in quite some time on these units. At least for me, the MoCA firmware didn't change during general Arris firmware upgrades. Regarding the PoE, you only need one in the ingress to the house; so no, don't add one at the modem. Won't...

    Swtiching over from Powerline to Moca 2.0 - New Setup Help

    They will do very well... I have bonded MoCA 2.0 and they deliver 940Mbps over a 40 meter coax segment. You won't get more than that with the gocoax 2.5 as the limit is the GigE port, not MoCA in this case.

    Swtiching over from Powerline to Moca 2.0 - New Setup Help

    I suggest the Antronix PoE instead, better brand: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EXRMIIC/?tag=snbforums-20 Use the smallest splitter possible. I would use the first option you showed, not the Satellite version.

    Swtiching over from Powerline to Moca 2.0 - New Setup Help

    MoCA uses frequency bands starting around 1150 Mhz, well out of the range of DOCSIS today. So the same coax cable can run both technologies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimedia_over_Coax_Alliance...

    Swtiching over from Powerline to Moca 2.0 - New Setup Help

    Many on these forums have reported MoCA 2.0 is working fine up to DOCSIS 3.1. I suspect you will be just fine.

    Another Cheap Moca 2.0 non-bonded adapter

    I've never tested it but I don't see why it wouldn't work *provided* you have them on their own COAX segment; e.g. point to point with a coax run between them. They are non-managed so won't have much in terms of diagnostics.

    Another Cheap Moca 2.0 non-bonded adapter

    Yes, just use a different static IP address, 192.168.1.11 would be fine. The MoCA POE is a good idea, and those splitters should be just fine. The network looks good!

    Another Cheap Moca 2.0 non-bonded adapter

    Depends on Frontier's territory, yes the MEB1100 is used to extend the ONT WAN connection (via CoAX) to the location of the NVG468MQ. The reason it doesn't work as a LAN is that the NVG468MQ uses 2 MoCA frequency plans: (1) for the WAN and (1) for the LAN. The WAN frequency will bind the...
