Yes. If you have a coax you can run them off this adapter.

Thanks OP! Bought one even though I'm clueless about this. The last tech I tried was Poweline and it was not as good as I had hoped.

Works way better than powerline for me, in fact I ran an extra coax line to my garage since it was easy. I have 4 adapters and get gigabit speeds to all nodes. It does seem to add a bit of latency (3ms or so).

Wouldn't it have been better to just run a cat6? Just wondering what made coax run easier?

To add, you prob won't even need to mesh if you have backhaul. You can prob set the Aps to do hand off. I guess it just depends on your APs

If you already have coax, you can leverage that instead of running new cabling.

Seems like this has only 1gb port even though it says supports moca speeds of 2.5gb speeds. Bit deceiving? Looks like 7250 model gets you the 2.5gb Ethernet port.

Seemed like (first read) the guy said he ran a coax line instead of cat5/6, now I get that they prob many they had an unused coax line already wired up...

This model linked only has 1 GB ethenet. The model with 2,5GB ethernet is $135. You would want that one, It doesnt help to have 2.5GB over MOCA if it is throttled down to 1GB. Since 2.5GB is the new relatively inexpensive top ethernet speed these days (switches, USB to 2.5GBE adapters for computers) and 2.5 can be run over cat5e or cat6 wires, you should be thinking about moving over to this new standard

Exactly. Interestingly I ordered the 7250 kit Amazon warehouse good version a few days back. Will be delivered today. I am going to test it the wired backhaul with my TP link mesh routers.

FWIW you can score a similar kit (Frontier FCA252) for ~$60 on eBay. Pretty much on your own for support though.

I would like to have at least 4 RJ-45 1Gb ports on the device. Are there any options? I don't want to add a separate networking switch with each adapter.
