If I disable the WiFi on the 5268AC on passthrough mode does that leave our wireless receiver hanging or is that on a separate connection via the 5268?Īny help or advice anyone has on this would be greatly appreciated.
#ATT UVERSE MOCA ETHERNET TV#
The other thing I'm worried about is that we have a wireless U-Verse receiver for our TV in the bedroom. If I were to get a mesh system, would I then connect those Powerline adapters to the mesh router? Or would those remain unaffected even after I would put the 5268AC in passthrough mode? I've been looking into a Mesh router system, but I'm worried that it might mess up some of the other wired connections we have throughout the house.įor example, I have our 5268AC hooked up to a couple of tpLink Powerline adapters that run ethernet to our smart TV and Xbox on the second floor and a computer and Xbox on the bottom floor. Connecting to the 5gHz band helps dramatically with speed, but the signal is so weak it really only works if you're on the same floor or on the floor immediately below the router. Within the past 2 months the 2.4 gHz band (with extender) is providing a fraction of the 500mbps we're paying for and it's dreadfully slow when you drop down a floor or 2. I have the 5268AC gateway up on a third floor data closet in a 3-level condo.
Actually, that works really well and is rock solid.I have a similar question to the ones on this thread. However, just to review, everything will work coax and HPNA with the BGW210 as long you connect the TPA311 to the RG and then hang the STB/DVRs off of it via a splitter.
I can't explain it either, but that's the result of my test. If you want to use ethernet as the source of the IPTV packets then you must not have a coax cable connected. The DVR just says "no signal", but if you disconnect the coax it will link up just fine. Use these steps if you have a red and white Ethernet cable.

#ATT UVERSE MOCA ETHERNET HOW TO#
In fact, it's so bad that if you have the DVR's ethernet port connected directly to the RG and have a coax cable connected at the same time that won't even work. Heres how to use that info to fix network problems. No amount of reboots of the DVR and STBs will jump start anything. It refuses to work no matter what I tweak. In other words, you cannot use the IPH8005 as an ethernet-to-coax bridge and hope to run your STBs from coax. The Pace IPH8005 DVR happily bridges coax-to-ethernet, but it will refuse to go the other way ethernet-to-coax. Well, I had some time to really play around with this and I have some bad news. I'll let it run like this for a few weeks and report back. I expect this setup to be as reliable as ethernet. I suspect if you do decide to go the HPNA route you'll want a high quality HPNA compatible splitter, RG6 cable, and compression fittings all around. I will say that I did the wiring of the house myself and I opted for the more expensive Belden RG6 cable and the compression fittings. I use Actiontech MoCa 2.0 adapters (works fine with cable tv and works fine over the top of the HPNA that AT&T uses for coax installs). It all works flawlessly with no pixelation or loss of speed on the internet speed test. As long as he/she doesnt have satellite, MoCa is also an option. I've had multiple streams going while simultaneously doing a speed test from my laptop piggy backed on the ethernet port of one of the Cisco STBs. I connected an ethernet cable from the BGW210 to the TPA311 and then hung the 3-way Holland GHPNA splitter off it and hooked up the STBs/DVR to the splitter. The Cisco/Pace STBs/DVR already have coax connectors and the HPNA bridge builtin. Trendnet TPA311 HPNA Bridge ($40 - » a.co/7kN4nU3) Holland GHPNA 3-way Splitter 5-1500 Mhz ($5 - » a.co/bdriYOp) Again, I'm just experimenting with HPNA right now. When I got UVerse installed the tech and I hooked everything up via CAT6 going through a Linksys LGS308 switch. My home is wired with 2xCAT6 and 2xRG6 to each room. Together, they create a mesh network that extends your Wi-Fi signal to more areas in your home or business. Why? Because I wanted to see for myself how it works out. INSTRUCTIONS & INFO How extenders work Tired of Wi-Fi dead zones Wi-Fi extenders and All-Fi Boosters connect to your existing Wi-Fi gateway or All-Fi Hub.
So I recently (today) switched my setup from ethernet to coax via HPNA.
