goCoax MoCA 2.5 Adapter with 2.5GbE Ethernet Port | MA2500D Ethernet Over Coax for Gaming & 4K Streaming | 2.5Gbps, Plug and Play | for Homes with Coaxial Cable Wiring - Requires 2+ Adapters (White)

The best device for those who needs wired connection but don't want to run separate cable. Why I like it ? -Very easy to set-up, just plug in and go. -Connection quality is amazing. My home office is connected through one of these adapters and gets 980+ Mbps on a 1Gbps connection. Practically no loss for reliable work, streaming, and gaming. I have bought 4 such devices and ordered one more because I have 4 bedrooms. 4 years of working without a glitch! .

I have an Xfinity XB8 gateway with MoCA built-in so I only needed one unit for my use. If your setup doesn't have native MoCA you need to buy 2 and some splitters. Simple plug and play set up just make sure you have MoCA enabled in your network admin settings. Boosted download speeds for my Xbox One X from sub-30Mbs to over 600Mbs, I'm sure individual results will vary, but it solved the problem of running ethernet from my office to downstairs. And it definitely works better than Wifi extenders or powerline adapters. It still won't replace a direct hardwire job to your gateway, but gets the job done if that's not an option.

Check to see if your router/modem has built-in MoCA before ordering a 2-pack of these! If it does, you might only need 1! I ordered 2 at first, set them both up, and they weren’t working. Then, while troubleshooting, I uninstalled only my modem-side MoCA adapter, and suddenly my computer was getting flawless, fast ethernet connection. Turns out I only needed 1, because my modem/router has built in MoCA, which I wasn’t aware of at first. With all that being said, this product works great, and does its job as intended.

Plug and play. Works great! Thought I was going to have to run Ethernet through the house. This is an easier and cheaper route.

I bought two of these for the new house I just moved into. I set it up identical to the diagram on their website and it says it is supposed to be plug and play, but it definitely is not. I have done every step to set it up but nothing has worked. All the lights indicate that they should be working. I have triple checked that all my coax cables are working but still is not converting the internet to ethernet. I have tried reaching out to their Customer Service team multiple times, but all they do is just reply with the same steps that are on their website. Asked if I could talk to someone on the phone to help me walk through what is going on and just replied with the same steps on their website. It is outside the return window, so I'm out $120 which is super fun.

Moved into a new spot where the Xfinity all in one router was a floor above and a lot of interference in between. My PC was getting 5mbps down, 1mbps up, and 72ms ping...horrendous. Hard wiring between floors was not an option so I went with a MoCA setup and I'm blown away. Setup was simple and now I'm getting 600mbps down, 120mbps up, and 14ms ping. Insane upgrade, I'm very happy with this purchase. If you have an Xfinity router with MoCA capabilities, don't overthink it, this is the move. You only need one of these after enabling MoCA in your router's admin tool. The only thing I'd recommend, but isn't necessary, is to swap out the ~3ft. coax cable they provide with a male to male coupler to make the setup at the outlet a bit more compact and less intrusive.

MoCA is the way to go for older homes that have coax instead of ethernet cables. We have a log home and there is no easy way to run ethernet cables, but the home was built in 2005 and has an abundance of coax throughout the home. We don't use cable TV but have converted the coax cables to connect our TV to the streaming services, run Sonos, NAS storage devices and wireless internet. The advantage has been no buffering of the TV, Sonos connects immediately, and we have better reception for the internet. We had everything connected in the basement behind concrete and log walls, but have been able to move all of those devices where the equipment is in the open.

Worked perfectly as a replacement for a Verizon FIOS WiFi Extender for which the WiFi capability was not being used and was costing $12 per month. Disconnected the Coax Cable from the FIOS Router, disconnected the CAT5 cable from my 4-port switch, and connected those cables (and power) to the goCoax MoCA 2.5 adapter and I was fully operational in under two minutes! Ran multiple speed tests--same as the Verizon Extender. Checked multiple devices on my network. Everything worked perfectly. It will pay for itself in less than 6 months.

These are an excellent alternative to Powerline Ethernet, which works reliably only 20% of the time. MoCA works a 100% of the time. Make sure that your coax splitters are capable of more than 1GHz. 3-way splitters often have one -3dB port and two -7dB ports. -7dB works better - it's higher attenuation, but wider band. Make sure you terminate unused ports with a 75Ohm terminators. Also keep in mind that they have a slightly higher latency - I'm seeing a 4ms ping round trip time on these.

Ich nutze den goCoax MoCA 2.5 Adapter zur Netzwerk-Erweiterung über bestehende Koaxialkabel im Haus – und ich bin positiv überrascht. Wer keine neuen Netzwerkkabel verlegen kann oder will, aber trotzdem hohe Netzwerkgeschwindigkeiten sucht, findet hier die perfekte Lösung. Was mich überzeugt hat: Volle Geschwindigkeit über Coax – Ich erreiche mit zwei Adaptern problemlos 2 Gbit/s brutto (real etwa 1,8 Gbit/s netto) – deutlich mehr als bei Powerline oder WLAN. Mein Coax-Kabel sind über 30 Jahre alt. Für Streaming, Gaming oder große Dateiübertragungen absolut zuverlässig und stabil. 2,5 GbE Ethernet-Port – Endlich ein MoCA-Adapter, der auch die volle Bandbreite weitergibt. In Kombination mit einem 2,5G-Switch oder NAS kann das Heimnetzwerk damit wirklich auf ein neues Level gehoben werden. Plug & Play – Adapter anschließen, einschalten, fertig. Die Geräte finden sich automatisch, keine komplizierte Konfiguration notwendig. Ideal auch für technisch weniger versierte. Nutzung vorhandener TV-Verkabelung – Ich verwende die vorhandene Koax-Verkabelung im Haus, ursprünglich nur für Kabelfernsehen, jetzt als Highspeed-Datenleitung. Perfekt für Häuser mit mehreren Etagen oder dicken Wänden. Stabiler Dauerbetrieb – Läuft bei mir seit Wochen im 24/7-Betrieb völlig unauffällig und ohne Hitzeprobleme oder Aussetzer. So muss das sein. Tipp: Wer Kabelfernsehen oder DVB-C parallel nutzen will, sollte auf ordentliche Splitter und ggf. einen MoCA-Filter am Hausanschluss achten – dann gibt’s auch keine Störungen. Fazit: Der goCoax MoCA 2.5 Adapter ist die ideale Lösung für alle, die echtes Gigabit-Netzwerk über vorhandene Coaxkabel wollen – schnell, stabil und ohne Kabelverlegeaufwand. Der 2,5G-Ethernet-Port macht ihn zukunftssicher und hebt ihn deutlich von anderen Adaptern ab. Klare Empfehlung von mir!

Top product! De oplossing voor mijn probleem met in de muur ingebouwde coax en toch overschakeling naar fiber zonder te kappen en te breken.

Easy to upgrade and works like a charm.

Premetto che utilizzo i powerline da anni e non ero nemmeno a conoscenza della tecnologia MoCA fino a pochi giorni fa. Mi sono documentato brevemente online e ho deciso di provare con questi goCoax poiché, tramite i powerline, riuscivo a portare soltanto 100 Mbps in down/up al mio pc fisso (che non posso connettere direttamente al modem) pur avendo la fibra da 2,5 Gbps a casa. Nel mio caso è andata anche meglio di quanto pensassi, lo speed test mi restituisce circa 950 Mbps in down e up (a causa della mobo sul fisso che supporta LAN fino a 1 Gbps) con 7 di ping. Se rimane stabile così anche nei prossimi giorni, sostituisco definitivamente i powerline. La configurazione è molto semplice, vi servono ALMENO due goCoax, uno lo connettete tramite LAN al modem e tramite cavo coassiale a una porta coassiale, così da fornire la connessione internet al cavo nel muro; l’altro goCoax lo connettete tramite LAN al dispositivo che volete (nel mio caso pc) e tramite cavo coassiale a un’altra uscita coassiale. In teoria andrebbe anche messo un filtro per le interferenze, che ho acquistato ma non ancora installato, se ne avrò la necessità lo farò. Nella confezione del goCoax trovate sia un cavo lan sia uno coassiale, ma quest’ultimo è abbastanza corto e vi consiglio di comprarne uno a parte. In definitiva, se avete la possibilità e il giusto impianto di cavi coassiali a casa vostra, vi consiglio sicuramente di sostituire i powerline con i MoCA
