Apple Tv Ethernet Cable Card Tuner

Bought this to add another cable tv tuner without getting a cable box. Used as a second tv in a room for sports programs. I couldn’t hook up another cable box in the room for the second tv. Works well with my Spectrum service. I know this is not the normal setup. Most just cut the cable. Downloaded Spectrum app and it works well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very clear picture, which in my opinion is just that much more important when you are talkin' a 75". When watching 4k content it looks fantastic! Watching sports is soooo much better. No problems with set-up, or anything else. I find the user interface very user friendly and intuitive and my wife has been able to "adapt". This a biggie! I haven't had to look at the on-line manual but a few times to look-up some more obscure features. Having a TV this big is great for us old people as our eyesight isn't the best and it makes it easier to read any text that appears on the screen. I pick up aprox 40 OTA channels and a little icing on the cake is the TV comes with a few hundred IP channels (available above the regular OTA channels - 101-999 I think) provided by a company called Xumo. Google "xumo channel lineup" No problems with streaming - I use Fire TV as my streaming device, so I don't use any of the apps directly available on the TV itself. We have been able to get rid of our cable TV service! I elected to hardwire to my router, but the TV WIFI worked fine before I hooked up the cable to the router - which is 3' from the TV. The only downside I've found is that is that the tuner doesn't support ATSC 3.0 which allows you to receive full 1080p OTA broadcast TV (which is newly available in my medium sized city with 5 stations transmitting it). To be fair, very few TVs do support this at this time (12/2020) which kinda surprises me since this is a mid-upper end model TV. ATSC 3.0 is only available in "major markets" at this time. Someone correct we if I'm wrong but I don't think this will be a software/firmware update, it will actually require hardware. I'm hoping to get around this by eventually getting a DVR that supports this new standard - the DVR tuner will essentially replace the TV's tuner.

We use the Apple TV 4K all the time. Mostly YouTube and Home Sharing with iTunes for downloaded content stored on our NAS. We've tried it on WiFi and Ethernet and find Ethernet much more responsive. I would recommend getting the 128GB version just to have the ethernet port.

Not much to say about an ethernet cable, except that it works.

I have this for my MacBook Pro 13. I have an external monitor, card reader, three external drives and for a while an ethernet cable to my router connected to it and everything works flawlessly.

Plug all your disks, sound, card readers, ethernet, flash drives, hide this mess behind your screens, and just connect the TB4 cable to your MBP (on a vertical stand for purists). One cable to rule them all = pretty cool. Makes your desk super slick. Provides power to your laptop too, so no more need for magsafe. All SSD's connected are functioning at top speed. Everything works wonder. Well worth the price. Build quality and finish are excellent.

I'm not running cable TV through the system, just using it to get Ethernet to a hard to reach spot in the house. Works like a charm. Really like the coax indicator light, takes the guess work out of knowing if the system loop is complete. Great product.

I purchased the two-pack Actiontec Bonded MoCA Network Adapters after reading about them online. They are extremely simple to install. All you do is connect one to your tv cable and plug in you ethernet source and you're ready to go. You must have at least two adapters to complete the network. I installed the second one in our living room. This time I just connected the tv cable to the adapter and it was the ethernet source for my streaming devices. I was so satisfied with these adapters, I purchased the wi-fi extender with which I am equally pleased. I've gotten over 100 Mps with this wi-fi extender - unbelievable!! If you need a hard wire ethernet in your house, this is the simplest way to get one - using your existing cable tv lines. I decided to cut the cord on cable tv because my bill went up nearly $20 per month with no change in service. With this device, I am able to run OTA TV and streaming devices over my home tv cables and it's like magic. I definitely recommend this produce to anyone interested in a MoCA network.

This is the way to go if you want to expand the bandwidth of your home network without running ethernet cable, and IMO is far superior to powerline adapters. They are truly plug and play, and require no setup at all once correctly connected to your router. My home was built with coax running to each room. I bought the 2 pack of these adapters to get more bandwidth for media streaming to my TV, and I am getting close to the advertised gigabit speeds. Just make sure you also buy a MOCA POE filter or else your data will travel out of your house into the cable network ... they are cheap so buy one and save yourself the headache. Also, these are not compatible with satellite TV .. only cable.

Just moved into a new construction house where the builder didn't think to run ethernet to every room. He did, however, run coax. Although I have zero intention of getting cable tv, it looks as if these will run cable box/tv coax pass through. I just had fiber installed in the basement, and ran out from the fiber router via ethernet to one of these, then plugged that into the coax that runs to my living room. I put the other MoCA adapter in the living room, plugged it into a 5 port switch which is connected to my SmartTV and PS4. Within 15 mins, I'm streaming 4K on my new tv, while having a rock solid connection speed on my PS4, and not noticing any load impact on my wireless network. Works like a charm. If you unplug ethernet devices, you may want to power cycle the receiving unit, in order to get a fresh IP.
