Anyone using Coaxial Cable To Ethernet Converter?

Speed is very good.

What kind of comment you looking for? It is an “old” proven to work solution. Especially useful if you do not have ethernet patch panel in your home. Check out the long discussion thread at internet and networking section.​

At DB:

DB setup: Green arrow (data in), Red arrow (data out). Disconnected the main coming in and install the 75ohm termination caps (on unused ports) to reduce noise:

it is useful if you want to re-use your existing coaxial infra. I was using powerline for many years (only 200Mbps speed) and was considering whether to go with Coaxial to Ethernet or Wifi6 mesh.

I ended up with Wifi6 (wireless backhaul) which gave me 4.8Gbps speed at close range and weaker 1.6Gbps as I extend the distance between the 2 nodes.

First video where he only got 1 ethernet port. It would have been cheaper and a long term solution to buy a ethernet switch, which is easily scalable if he needs more ports.

I have unused coax points in my living room and bed room, is it simply just plug the adapters at both points and it will work?

I quote from the MoCa thread,

In order for MoCA to work, a 'Point Of Entry Filter' needs to be installed into the main coax TV cable. This can either be done at the cable entry point into your premises (such as a riser cabinet) or within your flat in a cable distribution box where the coax splitter is.

I am unsure of the implications and I scare that the MoCa setup didn't work well in my favour/condition, so I decided to go for Wifi6 instead... at least I can replace my older routers and expand more Ethernet and USB ports rather than ending up with old tech e-wastes (hard to resell off). Powerline adapters served me well, I use them as backup wired backhaul in case wireless fail.
