    [SOLVED] Moca struggles to get above 3Mpbs upload while having 700-900 download

    [SOLVED] Is it possible to split my Coax connection AFTER it reaches my modem?

    [SOLVED] Do I need two MoCA-to-ethernet adapters if my modem has a MoCA port?

    I was thinking of putting a MoCA-to-ethernet adapter in a remote room in my apartment so I can have an ethernet hub there. My ISP modem (its not a modem-router combo) has a MoCA port, so does that mean I don't need to get two MoCA-to-ethernet adapters? Any help would be much appreciated!
