MoCA Made Easy!

- MoCA is a way to extend your Ethernet network over a coaxial cable network. In this video, I show a couple of MoCA wiring diagram options, and also go over the physical installation of a basic MoCA network - with speed tests!

Can confirm this video is the truth. I was banging my head against the wall trying to figure out how to do this with every diagram and tutorial online giving conflicting information. Thank you so much good sir for providing such a useful, non-time wasting video!!!!
One of the best youtube video's I ever watched. Brought the MoCA explanation down to my level of understanding. I was interested in what MoCA was and this was the best and simplest explanation. Thanks to Crosstalk solutions.
I recently built out a MoCA system, and MAN, it is just great. I think I 'hand-waved' over MoCA for a few years not really understanding it, or mentally equating it with PowerLine ethernet (which I've always heard terrible things about). I am so impressed with MoCA in my house; I've got the first floor built out with ethernet, and the second floor has two MoCA adapters bringing hardwiring to my desktops and the second WAP. It's just really solid.
This is cool. I didn't have a clear understanding what MoCA was and kept on running into it. Thanks Chris for the great videos as always!
MoCA encrypts data over the coax cabling. However, to make things simple for no-technical people, all MoCA devices ship with the same default encryption keys so you can "just plug it in". While it is recommended to put a MoCA filter at the ingress point, it is also STRONGLY recommended to set your own encryption key on all your MoCA devices. This is part of the MoCA standard; all devices must support it. How you configure it tends to vary from device to device, however.
Great video - you get straight to the point and go deep. This was very helpful and totally what I needed.
Enjoyed your video. I’ve been using MoCA for over 7 years - works great.
I used these in my house. They are awesome and allow fast speeds. I have a direct connection to my router in the master closet and ran an ethernet cable to a MoCa adapter and from there to my Coax for my house. I have another MoCa adapter for my home entertainment center which is connected to an 8 port switch to provide internet to my TV, Fire Cube, Xbox, Blue Ray player and Receiver.
With the splitter setup, it's important to have the MoCA filter in place, as there is a risk that your MoCA signal will go out onto the carrier network. There should always be a a filter between the splitter and the feed-in.
I cannot thank you enough I’ve already seen an increase in Internet speed I’m using an xfinity router as well this whole video is great and helped me teach myself how to do this
The Cable Modem should always be connected to the highest signal level possible. This is especially important for the uplink signal. By running the cable signal to the cable modem through two splitters, multiple coax connections and unknown length of coax cable you are attenuating the signal more than 6 db. The signal level might be fine now but down the road the level from Comcast may weaken due to changing weather connections, deteriorating infrastructure. If this was my house I would connect the cable modem in the garage and find a way to get another cable (Cat5 or coax) between the garage and office.
THIS PERSON SHOULD BE AN INSTRUCTER NICE EXPLANTION VERY CLEAR...
I am running this same set of adapters, I am using it to link my two Asus AX3000 routers in mesh mode. This setup never misses a beat, it handles my Gbps connection with no issues. I had to move to this setup because the house here in Japan is concrete and this was the only way to connect the entire house under one network with good speeds.
Wow this is the best explanation I have found. Thank you.
Thanks for the video!
I have MoCA 2.5 setup completely dark using gocoax and it's met my expectations of turning the entire home coax network into a 1Gbps FD network. I tested p2p iperf around 950Mbps, and similar downloads on the speedtest using the 1 Gig bandwidth on the downlink. MoCA 2.5 supports 2.5Gbps total bandwidth, i.o.w. 1Gbps+ FD between 2 of the MoCA 2.5 nodes across 100+ m of coax. I am not sure what's wrong in your setup, but all your splitters may need to be looked into. MoCA requires splitters that support up to at least 1650 MHz frequency. I went with the one supporting 2500 MHz frequency, as there's little price difference.
Been working with MOCA for years in multiple installs. You need to check the band it operates in and make sure that band does not conflict with other things on the coax. Like satellite, Verizon, cable co etc. MOCA operates from 450 MHz to 1625. Make sure to get band filters. And a side note if you are only getting 100M between the 2 that is terrible speeds. As the name suggest 2.5 is rated at a throughput of 2.5 Gbps
Great video, I was pulling my hair out trying to get this to work. It took a $5 MoCA Point of Entry filter to fix the issue.
Love the Blazing Saddles T-Shirt. I brought dimes.
Nice setup. Currently using the MoCA adapters from Motorola.
