" ...  I created a MoCA network for my TiVo mini's on the second story of my home with the first adapter. ... Used the second adapter to create a wired network connection to my sons Playstation because it is at the far end of the house away from the WiFi, and had weak signal. ... BTW, I am using these with an Asus Onhub (Google WiFi) router and a TP-Link 8 port switch at the router end, and a BAMF 6 way coax splitter where the coax splits in the attic.  ...  "

" ...  Since the cable signal is coming into my home through the attic crawl space, and split up there to several of the coaxial locations in my home, I was able to order two MoCA to replace the echo boxes (which by the way are Actiontec WCB6200Q.)  ...  "
