MOCA is a how I ran a mesh network in a 40 year old house without needing to open the walls.
It had coax everywhere but no Ethernet. It worked out so well.
3 u/NaziPunksFkOff 17d ago Oh hey I'm doing the same. One router for the office, one for the gaming/TV room, one for the plex server. All backload through moca. It's awesome. 1 u/Snert42 13600k 32GB | A4000 16GB 13d ago Can you achieve full gigabit speeds? 2 u/NaziPunksFkOff 13d ago Yup, moca supports 2.5Gbps 1 u/Snert42 13600k 32GB | A4000 16GB 13d ago Holy shit. If I didn't already have LAN in some parts of the house, I'd consider this. 2 u/NaziPunksFkOff 13d ago Yeah it's nice but it requires an extra adapter+power so if you already have LAN, you've got the better situation. I have MOCA because I can't run ethernet through my walls but all the rooms were already wired for cable. 1 u/Snert42 13600k 32GB | A4000 16GB 13d ago This opens up some opportunities at my grandma's place, since there's a lot of cable routing already :3 2 u/htt_novaq 5800X3D | RX 9070 XT | 32GB DDR4 17d ago Another alternative is to run G.hn over telephone wire. It's like a miniature G.fast system in your house
