Motorola Moca Adapter For Ethernet Xfinity

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.

MoCA is the way to go if you don't have an ethernet wired house. I've tried Powerline ethernet and although it was decent, it was not stable. Other connected appliances add noise to the electric signal. With MoCA, the signal is stable and FAST. One thing you have to get is a PoE filter. You need to add it to the coaxial coming into the house. I added it where it came in at the utility closet. Once on, the MoCA signal has been perfect.

This is by far the best non-Ethernet home networking solution on the market delivering near 1G Ethernet speeds.� There were some teething issues for me that I had to resolve, but since then my three adapters have been rock solid.� So much so I just bought 2 more. A few tech notes from the issues I had to resolve.� High frequency bandwidth is everything for these adapters.� Make sure you have RG6 wires, this should not be an issue if using cable wiring preinstalled in the last 30-40 years or more recently by the cable company.� In my case the in wall wiring was OK with RG6 cable.� However a previous owner had used cheap R59 jumpers (with cheap twist on terminations) between a rat's nest of cheap Radio Shack splitters that couldn't pass more than 1 GHz.� I bought a higher quality 6-way splitter rated up to 2 GHz.� I also found that having a filter designed to contain the MOCA signals within the house was an absolute necessity.� This filter is installed at the input to the splitter for me.� I think the filter either addressed a high frequency impedance issue or controlled signal reflections that were causing issues.�� As an aside to anyone who cares, these adapters do pass VLANs and probably any other Ethernet L2 items like jumbo frames and the like.� I believe all MOCA adapters do is to encapsulate Ethernet frames and seamlessly pass it over the MOCA network.

.After upgrading to Xfinity (Comcast) 1 Gig speed tier, I needed a new modem to take advantage. I originally purchased a Motorola MB8600. While the Motorola was indeed fast (spoiler alert: faster than the Arris S33), the Motorola was hugely unstable and unreliable on Xfinity/Comcast (Google it - you'll see its a huge problem). The Motorola was either locking up or losing Internet connection about 5-10 minutes every hour or two! Egads! It was horrible. So Motorola was returned. Enter the Arris SURFboard S33. It activated smoothly and has been rock solid for me on Xfinity/Comcast. It is also a very small modem. The box photos make it *look* large - but it is in fact only 6 x 6 x 2 thick. Quite compact and smaller than most DOCSIS 3.1 modems. It is fast...but, if to be honest it is slower than the MB8600 I had right before this one. My plan is rated at 1000 Mbps down and 40 Mbps up. The Motorola topped out at a very impressive 1014 Mbps down and 41.6 Mbps up. The S33 topped out at 933 Mbps down and 41.7 Mbps up. I ran tests on both modems probably 30 times at all different times of days and night. The above are my best scores. The S33 is consistently about 8-9% slower download speeds compared to the MB8600. But...reliability and stability are far more important than a marginal top-end speed difference. The only other (slight) negative is that the S33 runs a bit warmer than both my older SURFboard model and the Motorola MB8600. It's not hot per se, but does run warmer than maybe most modems. Just make sure to give it good ventilation and it should be fine.

Bought this to replace old Motorola SBG6580 Seems to be more stable and much less T3 timeouts on Xfinity. only on in 6 days so far. Also runs much cooler than Motorola. Very pleased so far.

Used to use Motorola for Xfinity but found the loss signal frequently, so traded it in buy this unit so far works well

Bought this to replace a Motorola router we ere using with Xfinity. Immediate upgrade in signal strength and channel bonding with over 24 devices. Love the Netgear GENIE software, too! Highly recommend!!

Not much to say, it's a USB to Ethernet adapter. Works exactly like you would want it to.

I purchased these to setup a MoCA network in my house for my Tivo Roamio 1Tb OTA and two Tivo Minis. I love the fact that I can use only one RG6 coax cable (ANT) coming out of the wall and one RG6 coax cable out of the Actiontech Adapter to the Tivo Roamio. With my setup, I only needed one since the Tivo Minis already have a MoCA Adapter built in.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Belkin USB-C to Ethernet + Charging adapter is amazing tool to have with you when you need an ethernet connection. The USB-C to Ethernet + Charging adapter charges your connected device while also providing an ethernet connection, so no need for multiple connectors. I have been using this on my Android phone and my laptop, both devices have a USB-C port and my Belkin adapter worked great on both devices. It provided an adequate charge and a stable internet connection without any issues. The adapter was immediately recognized by both devices and there was no need to install any software to make the adapter work. The adapter is also small and portable enough to carry with you anywhere you go. I would highly recommend this adapter to anyone looking for an ethernet + charging adapter.
