Cable modem should be able to assign the IP for the PC or support a static IP. For the multiroom DVR case, the DVR or STB assigns the IP through built in DHCP server.

Every device needs an IP, if I use the MoCA2Ethernet adapters on my PC, and another one on my cable modem. If the IP of PC assigned by the cable modem?

PCMoca adaptermoca adaptorcable modem
is physically equal to
PCcable modem
I think the all MoCa devices just behave like a multi-port hub.
Am I right?

As for the multi-room DVR case, who assign the IP to the DVR and the client STB?
thanks

If you have Verizon FioS, it uses MoCA. You should have a Broadband Home Router that has MoCA integrated. All of the outlets in your house should have MoCA connectivity. You could purchase a single MoCA adaptor, connect it to a coax outlet and plug it into your computer.

A normal MoCA installation would use a three-way splitter, and you don’t need to terminate the OUT connection, but it might improve the connection. However, since there’s nothing else on the coax, a two-way splitter should work fine as well.

Suppose I had 3 areas I wanted to communicate with each other. I would have 3 MoCA boxes, and all 3 coax cables meeting in a utility closet. How would I wire these together? Would I need a 3-way splitter and connect all 3 to OUT and terminate the IN, or would I use a 2-way splitter, with one IN and two OUT? Again, this would just be for an internal network. No CATV or external internet access.

]]> Comment on Setting up a MoCA Network in your Home by Jonathan http://mocablog.net/2009/04/09/setting-up-a-moca-network-in-your-home/#comment-1472 Thu, 16 Feb 2012 16:52:49 +0000 http://mocablog.net/?p=104#comment-1472 People on here seem way more knowledgeable than my local cable provider (RCN). please tell me if this is the right setup… We have the tivo elite with built in MoCa in our living room and it is about 20 feet from our modem/router. We have an ethernet wire already ran from the router to the tivo box so it is connected directly…am i right to assume that since the tivo elite is hardwired via ethernet that we do not need the MoCa bridge? We have 2 of the satellite boxes which are only connected with coax cable and they are able to connect with the elite and stream so technically the mocha network is working.. but ever since the new boxes were set up our internet has become extremley slow.. the speedtest shows it…i can notice it while browing the internet and i can also notice it while watching netflix from my xbox (which is also hardwired via ethernet)…actually its so slow that the netflix wont even load HD now and it looks like crap…i have been reading about the POE filter and the tech that came here did not install one…i understand that it stops that signal on the coax from leaving the house but my question is…would not having the POE filter only affect the MoCa signal and the streaming speed between the boxes etc.. or could it have an effect on the actual internet speed for everything in the house? thanks
