Hello all,
I currently have a MOCA connection set up and I am in the process of having half the house rewired with CAT6A. The other half of the house can not, at this point, get the CAT 6A (too cost prohibitive to make and repair the holes to run the wire). My intention is to have the internet connection switched over to the Ethernet cable from MOCA. My questions:
1) My understanding is that I need to call CS to make the switch from MOCA to Ethernet. Is there anything specifically I should say to the agent to make this process easier? I don't think this is a big deal, but I have read that some people have had difficulty in getting the CS rep to "flip" the appropriate switch for Ethernet to activate.
2) All of my current hard wired internet connections will be reached by Ethernet. Once I switch over to the Ethernet connection, my understanding is that MOCA will NOT work at all. Is that true? Said another way, while all of my existing wired connections will be addressed by a CAT6A wired connection, there is an area of the house that only has COAX that I would like to have a MOCA bridge set up for wireless. Once I turn on Ethernet, am I correct in that connection via COAX is no longer possible.
Thanks for any guidance.
