Let’s get started MoCA is a good way to connect a router or cable modem/router to a distant device by using your home’s coaxial (“coax”) cable. The device can be a computer, smart TV, video streaming device, game station, streaming media player, or other device that has an Ethernet LAN port for Internet access.

need to use the included coax cable between the MoCA adapter’s DEVICE coax and the device you disconnected. Next, connect the included Ethernet cable between the MoCA adapter’s Ethernet jack and the LAN Ethernet jack of the router or modem/router. Plug the power adapter into a live outlet, and make sure that the On/Off button is On.

You always connect a coax cable to the MoCA Adapter’s Network input and your coax network. Sometimes there’s an available coax network jack or cable, so you don’t need to disconnect anything. However, you may need to connect the Network coax connector to a coax cable that’s plugged into a nearby set-top box, router, or other device.

Installing a MoCA Adapter with a Verizon® set top box If you wish to use a MoCA adapter near a Verizon set top box, you must install a splitter. Verizon set top boxes use MoCA to communicate with the router. Connecting a Coax cable from the MM1025’s device port to the Verizon set top box will prevent features like on-demand and channel guide from working.

• Program all your MoCA devices with the same MoCA security key. In the unlikely event that you want to do this, please see www.motorolanetwork.com/MoCAsecurity For most people the PoE filter is easier and a better solution. The PoE filter doesn’t interfere with your TV and Internet but does prevent your MoCA signals from traveling to your neighbors.
Troubleshooting tips If you have a problem, re-read this Quick Start. Did you connect your MoCA Adapter(s) correctly? Are all MoCA Adapters powered on? Is the Link light on for any MoCA Adapter, as it should be? If both Link lights are not lit, try power-cycling any MoCA Adapter you installed.

Check to see whether there is a coax splitter near your router and/or the device that you want to connect to the router using MoCA. If you find a splitter, its frequency range should be shown on its label. Make sure that the upper frequency is at least 1,000 MHz (also called 1 GHz).
