Feed Your WiFi with High-Bandwidth Coax Wiring

May 25, 2021

Bandwidth hungry devices starve your WiFi. These devices are the ones that demand a large portion of your WiFi network when in use. Things like gaming consoles, PCs, TVs, and more. To fix this, you need a network that can handle your bandwidth needs.

Your wireless network may be high performing today, but there will come a time when interferences and obstacles make your connection suffer. But you can get ahead of that by feeding your wireless network with a wired backbone made from the coax wiring that already exists in your walls.

 

How to Create an Ethernet Over Coax Network

If you live in a home or apartment that previously had cable TV services, then you have coax wiring to create a high-speed Ethernet over coax (MoCA technology) network. The only things that you need to successfully convert coax to Ethernet is the existing wiring and a pair of MoCA adapters.

Set up a MoCA network in minutes. Here’s two options for how it works:

  1. Coax wiring + two MoCA adapters:
    1. Connect one MoCA adapter to a coax jack and also into your router.
    2. Then, connect the second MoCA adapter into the device you are using to connect to the Internet with the Ethernet cable.
  2. Coax wiring + one MoCA adapter + a MoCA-enabled router:
    1. Enabled MoCA on your MoCA-ready router.
    2. Then, connect the one MoCA adapter into the device you are using to connect to the Internet with the Ethernet cable. Make sure they pair.

That’s it. For more information about coax, Ethernet and MoCA technology, check out Hitron’s Learn Page. By simply using HT-EM4 MoCA adapters, you can enhance your boost WiFi connection and increase the performance of your WiFi to every corner of your home.
