ScreenBeam Bonded MoCA 2.5 Network Adapter True 2.5 Gbps Ethernet Port for Ethernet Over Coax (1 Pack) – Fast Streaming, Gaming, Work/Learn from Home (Model: ECB7250S02)

Coax cable was stuck in conduits for a 20 year old brickwork house in Portugal and I needed to get WiFi upstairs. I originally wanted to pull through Ethernet cable but was stuck with the coax. Researched the screenbeam moca and installed with no problems, hooking up to second access point. Working great now have WiFi working on both floors

I have used many Ethernet over Powerline adapters over the years and even though they worked, speeds were never even close to the advertised ones. This week I decided to get one of these Ethernet over Coaxial cable adapters (it plugs where you normally plugin a TV box that uses the coaxial cable) to test it in a room where I get some spotty WiFi coverage (even though I do have three access points - all Ubiquiti gear). Not sure if it is just because I no longer use Cable TV services (what means I have nothing plugged in to the coaxial ports at home any longer) but Jesus Lord, this thing solved ALL the performance issues. It is maxing out the Gigabit card on my son's PC so now when I try to copy large files from my network storage devices (a QNAP and a Synology) I am hitting 112 Mbytes per second (what is 996 MBits), the maximum speed on the switch where I plugged this in (and also the maximum speed on my son's PC Ethernet port). Massive improvement and took me like five minutes to install. Again, I am not sure if it is working great for me due to not using the coaxial cables in the house any longer for anything. Also I am not sure yet if performance degrades with multiple adapters but I would expect it to be the case as a single adapter goes to the switch so if I have multiple adapters on the other end (i.e., the PCs in the rooms) all of these adapters will got to the switch through that single adapter in the switch room. Regardless, still massive improvement as I am sure not all machines will be on at the SAME time AND doing massive transfers at the same time either. Fantastic product.

I bought a pair of these to cure my network issues in a 17yo double storey house. I was concerned I might have to find and replace incompatible splitters in my roof, etc. but no - it was plug and play, gigabit network 30 seconds after plugging them both in. No interference to aerial TV reception. Saved me a lot of nuisance and expense vs. having to get ethernet installed. Time will tell how reliable they prove to be. Australians retrofitting these to older homes will likely have PAL-type female sockets at the wall. You will need to buy an additional PAL male to F-type male cable to connect each of these units - Amazon sells them. If you will be connecting a TV at the same socket, you will need two of them in addition to the included F-type to F-type cable and splitter. The included power supplies (at least the ones I received) will accept 220V but have US pins, so you will also need two US>AU travel plug adaptors (or replacement Australian power supplies).

UPDATE: If you bought WCB6200Q one of the first things you should do after the WPS step is to update your firmware from 1.1.10.20 to the latest 1.1.10.20a.t. Search "WCB6200Q Firmware Upgrade" and you will find the instructions and file to update your extender. Also one thing I forgot to mention was to make sure you check your incoming splitter that is outside located after your fios box. You need to change it out to a MOCA-Compliant splitter from the regular one for this to work. Can confirm the "The Holland Electronics" splitter with the blue label works well Review: Was using cheap plugin wifi extenders to fill in dead areas around my house. Was always resetting these plugin extenders because they kept disconnecting so I looked for a better solution and found the Actiontec Wifi Extender WCB6200Q. Some of the things I was looking for was a consistent reliable wired connection, Ethernet capable, easy setup/plug and play situation and lastly an extender that would be totally compatible with Frontier Fios Easy Setup Super easy using the instructions that came with the box. First plugged the new extender into my G1100 router using an Ethernet cable then plugged the extender into my computer using another Ethernet cable then plugged in the power cord. I then waited till the extender light turned green on top..at that point I pressed the WPS green light on the extender for 10 seconds till it turned red and started blinking then i pressed the WPS button on the G1100 router for 3 seconds and started blinking. In less than 10 seconds the extender found my router and connected. Another thing the WPS process does is change the extenders name and password to match the routers name and password but adds and "ext" on the end of the name to differentiate it. Finally after getting setup I updated the firmware which can be found on the actiontec website. Results I now have a solid wifi extender that is reliable and bulletproof that works in the dead areas of my house. WIFI speeds are almost consistent with my wired speeds. 50/50 but the thing I like most is I haven't had to reset anything. Everythings working as it should out the box and I dont have to deal those terrible cheap wifi extenders anymore.

I cannot recommend this enough. We have a 250 mbps internet service in our house. Unfortunately, the wifi router is in one corner of the house. On the other side of the house, internet access was abysmal. I purchased this in conjunction with the Actiontec Bonded MoCA 2.0 Ethernet to Coax Adapter (ECB6200S02). The result? AMAZING. Set up was simplicity in itself. The WPS function did not work for me, either, but it was easy to manually change the SSID/password to match the wifi router. We now get 230 mpbs on the far side of the house, and also, get about 180 mpbs in our garage, whereas previously, we got nothing. The manual for this unit is lacking somewhat, but overall, the results are phenomenal. Highly recommended!

Very reliable connectivity and bidirectional speeds, for those with coax in the house, it beats using powerline adapters by a mile.
