NFL goes OTT on PS3
DIRECTV and PlayStation Bring NFL Sunday Ticket to PS3 – PlayStation Blog.
Once upon a time, if you were a lowly cable subscriber you had to suffer through the NFL season watching your local team and some other random game on Sundays. Now through the miracle of OTT Internet video, relief is finally here (Oakland/SF Bay Area fans rejoice!), NFL Sunday Ticket is available via any broadband connected PS3 (for a small fee of course). DirecTV is allowing non-DirecTV subscribers to sign up for 17 weeks of out-of-market NFL games, the Redzone channel, and mobile access for $340 for the entire season. That’s just $20 / week, about the price of 2 movie tickets, for an all-you-can-eat NFL buffet.
This just happens to coincide with the recent PS3 price drop to $250 for the basic console. And since every game is streamed over the Internet at full HD quality, it’s a no brainer to use MoCA Coax Networking to ensure a HDTV quality picture every Sunday and beyond. In addition, networking your PS3 with MoCA gives you stutter free online gaming with no interference versus a wireless connection.

Not that it’s a difficult install, but here’s a good article on connecting a PS3 to the Actiontec MoCA adapters. There’s also one on connecting a Nintendo Wii which is basically the same steps. In fact, you could apply the same procedure to hooking up your Xbox 360, PC, networked PC, Bluray Player, etc….
One thing not mentioned is that if you have multiple devices in your living room, you can connect a 5-port switch to the MoCA adapter and add another 4-ports to connect your living room devices. Now all your devices can have access to the 170Mbps throughput via MoCA.
