![]() ![]() Then buy/rent a Verizon extender and put it in the office. Connect it to Ethernet for WAN and coax for MoCA LAN. If you want a Verizon supported option, put the router near the ONT. Since FiOS is very reliable, you understand the technology, and found this forum, you're in good shape. Verizon support will end at the ONT if you don't use their router. Same thing if you switch to a non-Verizon router (by the way, it's a router, not a modem). Not a big deal, but you won't be able to ask them for help. Note that this is not supported by Verizon. To avoid the possibility of this even happening, I recommend using a point-to-point coax link if your cabling supports this. They key point is to have no other MoCA devices on the coax, just the one at the ONT and the one at the router. I've not tested this deployment, but others have reported doing this. Has anyone used this newer model in this way? In terms of performance, what can I expect? Is there anything special to configure on the Actiontec adapters, or is it plug and play? Also, I can just call Verizon support and ask them to activate the ethernet port on the ONT, right? Also, when I do this, I no longer need to use the Verizon gateway modem, correct? ONT > Ethernet > Actiontec MOCA adapter > coax to office > Actiontec MOCA adapter > Ethernet > My router I'm thinking that I could just get the Actiontec ECB6250K02 units (MOCA 2.5, 1 Gbps Ethernet), pair them up, and use Ethernet at both ends with the coax in the middle. I can have fiber or copper run to that space, but that's a bit involved and costly due to the layout of the house. This is the situation that I find myself in: I'm limited to 100/100 Mbps, but I would like a bit faster speeds. The Verizon ONT is one of the newer models that supports 1 Gbps over the LAN adapter, but the MOCA is limited to 100/100. The coax run is a straight run from the basement to the office upstairs. The fiber from Verizon comes into the basement of my house, and we are currently using the built in MOCA adapter on the ONT installed in the basement. If you want a diagram to show all of your devices, please do request me to do that.We are using Verizon FiOS for internet only. You need one more to replace the MoCA port on G1100. If you want 1Gbps, then you can consider purchase ECB6200 from Actiontec/Verizon, still couple bucks cheaper than goMoCA 2.5 each. It costs $55.00, I think cheaper than goMoCA 2.5 and you get bunch of ethernet ports on each floor too. If you think 500Mbps on each floor is enough for WiFi, then I suggest you to return all the MoCA 2.5 adapters and purchase ECB5240M from Verizon. Now, you will be bottlenecked at 1.0Gbps of the LAN port. You can just purchase another MoCA 2.5 adapter to replace the LAN Coax port on G1100, and plug a G1100 LAN port to the adapter. Assuming you have Gigabit subscription (980/800Mbps), using the MoCA 2.0 LAN Coax on G1100 will bottleneck everything to 500Mbps, so you want to bypass the G1100 MoCA. So connect all of them on the same coax wire (of course with splitters), you get MoCA 2.0 at the fastest 500Mbps. Your three MoCA adapters are MoCA 1.1/2.0/2.5. ![]() T ivo Roamio Pro seems to have MoCA 1.1/2.0. G1100 has a built-in Coax adapter (WAN or LAN, I use it for LAN) supporting MoCA 1.0/1.1/2.0 only. They operate at highest mutually supported versions. Different MoCA versions can mix and match. Short answer, yes, but without tested by myself.įirst, MoCA adapters do not distinguish encoders and decoders.Īll MoCAs are backward compatible, and all devices can share a coax connection (in parallel fashion). ![]()
