Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • If you have coax, especially if it is not used for anything else, MoCA adapters can run 2.5Gbps half-duplex. You could easily download at 1.6Gbps.
  • There are adapters called MoCA that can use the coax to provide network, and I see a lot of people happy with the 2.5Gbps version.
  • If you have coax outlets, look into moca adapters.
  • You can consider MoCA adapters to run Ethernet over coax.
  • If you already have coax running to your room, look at MoCA adapters

Cons

  • MoCA adapters are expensive, so I decided I could just pull a coax cable out and thread the CAT6 Ethernet cable through in its place.

If so, you can buy a pair of MoCA adapters. You'll have a much better, stable connection for your business needs

Moca adapters if you have coax in your house. Basically ethernet to coax adapters.

If you have coaxial cables left over from cable, you can get MoCA adapters that can go 2500 (per-endpoint) - 3500 (per-network) Mbit (I get flat 1Gbit as I don't have any 2.5G capable devices).

Parent context: I recently did MOCA where we had some coax and the results have been even better then I expected but your solution is great. Reply: Ah y'all are making me start to regret not looking into MOCA more 😂
