Motorola MoCA Adapter for Ethernet Over Coax, Plug and Play, Ultra Fast Speeds, Boost Home Network for Better Streaming and Gaming (1 Gbps – MoCA 2 Pack)

I purchased two of these adapters. I just finished installing one of them. I already had a MOCA network so the adapter is being used to connect an older TIVO to the MOCA network. It took about 15 minutes to accomplish this task. I was impressed with the quality of the adapter, the instructions, and that it came with all the required cables.

This works great, I have one of the adapters in the attic connected to my switch and the second once connected to a Google Wifi pod. Definitely near gigabit speeds and its monumentally more reliable and consistent than using the wireless to connect the pod. I test speedtest regularly and always hit my max speeds. With this I was able to place my 3rd access spot exactly were I needed it to provide my 3 story home with a virtually perfect mesh topology.

I bought a pair of these to start a MoCA network in my house. I plugged in the first one and the MoCA indicator light came on right away. It already picked up the MoCA signal from the Xfinity X1 DVR in the living room. I plugged the ethernet connection into a port on my router, then installed the second unit onto the coax in a spare bedroom to test it, then plugged a laptop in to the ethernet port and was connected to the Internet. No configuration necessary. I thought for sure Id have to replace some of my splitters with MoCA-compliant ones but I didnt have to. The coax infrastructure in my house is pretty old using RG-59 cable, not RG-6 so I was worried but everything just worked. The only downside I can see is that even though these units are bonded 2.0 MoCA, my X1 DVR is MoCA 1.1 so everything is running at 1.1 speeds. There does not appearing to be any type of configuration utility on the MM1000 to set it as a Primary MoCA gateway, although my understanding is that it wouldnt make a difference because I think once a 1.1 device is plugged in to the MoCA coax network, all of the devices would slow to 1.1 speed whether it is the primary gateway or not. I could be wrong. If only my X1 DVR was MoCA 2.0, Im sure I would be getting great speeds Regardless, I will be buying at least two more of these to get all of my Smart TVs off of wifi. With these I am getting consistent 90-100mb download speeds on ethernet using speedtest.net from the spare bedroom vs the 30-40mb speeds with intermittent signal loss I was getting using wifi extenders. Im glad I finally took the leap to MoCA.

Almost as close as wired cat5e performance. If you are unable to fish the cat5e in your home, then this is ideal solution to have wired data connection using existing coaxial cable in your home. my speed test output for reference.

Work great on its own cable run. Didnt work on the cable run already installed in my hotel due to the weird cable system.

Works well and is less expensive than the Actiontec adapters. Plug and play setup, without any bandwidth issues. Just make sure you use modern high bandwidth (up to 2500MHz) splitters. Most homes have very old splitters that will limit the MoCA 2.0 speeds of these adapters.

Followed the instructions included with the product, in tandem with a more generic MoCA guide I found online. Setup was a breeze, and I typically struggle with anything network-related. No issues with speed or network stability.

Works well my father installed worked off the bat

One of the most affordable bonded MOCA 2.0 solutions on Amazon. I just upgraded my pair of YTMC-51N1-M2 to these. I was getting roughly 35 to 40 MBps, and now am reliably getting 85-100 MBps. Huge improvement, very happy.

I bought 4 of these units in April 2019. 2 seemed to work good. 2 were questionable from the start but were connected to devices not used often. Now one is completely dead, wont power up at all. Two are still working well. # 4 is still glitchy but working (for now). Apparently Amazon only backs these for 3 months so now I am stuck either buying another or not using the other device unless I switch it back to WIFI. BEWARE as you may need to purchase these twice per year. MOCA seems to be a good solution for many situations but it isnt if the hardware is not reliable.
