We have just moved into an old house in the UK which has old antenna coax going around the house and want to use that to feed MoCA signals to save running Ethernet around the place.
My current wife backhaul is not really fit for purpose and it only takes a moment for a device to lose connectivity and cause the network to fail.
The current coax is no longer connected to an antenna as the antenna is long dead (suspect it died in a storm at least 10 years ago). All the coax current goes into a loft into a very old amplified splitter. This is the connected to a cut cable.
As the old coax will never be used for anything, what is the easiest route to get the coax runs working for MoCA? Can I just buy a cheap splitter without a filter making the various coax runs into a virtual single cable? Or is there a specific filter that is recommended? Literally the coax won’t have any deliberate signals injected into it minus the usual interference that can get into any cable.
Any recommendations would be very much appreciated.
