F-Type port to Ethernet converter?

[Titus Embrey]

I'm looking for a way to hook up an Rj45 connector (CAT6) within a room, but the only port available is for T.V. cable.

Is there any way to connect to the internet from this?

That depends on a number of things. No, you can't connect to the Internet from an antenna. But
1) What's on the other end of that TV cable? Do you have cable TV? Is your cable TV provider also your Internet provider? In that case, the cable TV provider may be able to install a modem in that room.
2) Nothing is on the other end. You have a coax cable that runs from where your Internet source is to this room, and you want to push Ethernet over it. There is hardware that can do this.
3) What exactly did you mean if those are both wrong?

We have cable T.V. Our internet and cable provider are the same (Brighthouse).

They'll install a modem, but it costs extra (are there any cheaper modems online that'll still work?)

"What's on the other end of that TV cable?"

I wasn't referring to the cable, I was referring to a port in the wall (I don't think I'm understanding your question).

I'm not sure which of the two options you presented are the one I fall under.

Our Setup

We have a single modem in the living room; it provides both cable and our internet. It connects to an F-Type and Ethernet ports. T.V.s throughout the house run off of F-Type connectors in each room. I'm about to get a new computer, and I'm wanting to hook up to the internet via cable (we've previously only used the Wi-Fi). Originally, I'd considered running wire from my room to the modem, but then I remembered I have a cable connection in my room.

If all else fails, I'll run the CAT6 like I'd originally intended (it's cheaper than what they're wanting for the modem).

I do apologize for any confusion I might be causing; thank you very much for your time : )

The devices you are looking for are called MoCA. You will have to look online at some of the wiring diagrams to see which method would apply. You may need to change the way you coax splitters are wired. The newest motorola modem/gateways have MoCA support built in so if you need a modem it makes it simpler. Otherwise get a couple of MoCA boxes and put them on each end.

You have to be somewhat careful MoCA is not compatible with some home whole house DVR systems and it directly conflicts with directtv one wire systems.
