Got an Older Home and Slow WiFi? Here’s How to Fix It

July 26, 2021

Older homes, while beautiful, are not often the best homes for fast, reliable WiFi. Built with thick, brick or concrete walls and sturdy metal beams, older homes have a plethora of things that could cause WiFi signal interference and slow WiFi speeds. While completely eliminating WiFi signal interferences aren’t possible, you can boost and fix your WiFi by creating a wired network backbone using your existing coax cable TV wiring (also called Ethernet over coax) in your older home.

MoCA Adapters convert your older home’s coax wiring into an Ethernet connection and creates a reliable network backbone that is capable to delivering speeds up to 1 Gbps to all of your connected devices.  This MoCA network can work with your existing Ethernet network to extend your home network coverage without running wires or drilling any holes.  MoCA Adapters are literally plug and play, which means you free up your time to enjoy your weekend.

MoCA adapters help to improve your overall Internet connectivity and WiFi performance, giving you pristine HD streaming, faster online gaming, smoother video conferencing and more. Connect any Ethernet device to your MoCA network, such as an Access Point or Router, and give your entire household the WiFi connection they need without the hassle of running wires.

Hitron’s MoCA Adapters are available on Amazon.  Find more information about MoCA adapters and MoCA technology on Hitron’s Learn page or read our Blog.
