I just installed the MOCA device, it ran for a while and then the MOCA lights dropped out and I lost the network connection completely. I was able to get them to restart by disconnecting and then reconnecting. My question is, when I look at the MOCA lights they are flashing, is that an indication the connection is unstable or is that normal for them to flash? I did the test of tying the two together and they linked ok.
Thank you!
I only need one MOCA device for my SmartTV, which is working now, so I'm calling it good at this point!
Thanks for your help!
Dennis, the MoCA Status shows you have three (3) MoCA devices instead of two on your coaxial network. The device 0 shows MoCA 2.0 version, not sure whether it is unbonded or bonded without the second bonding channel.
(I don't mean to put this in large font. The quoting feature apparently automatically makes this large font.)
Are you a Verizon Fios subscriber? Do you have a Verizon router? Those routers have built-in MoCA capabilities. Technically, you only need one goCoax 2.5 to extend the network to a different location.
Hi,
Here is the screen shot of the MOCA Link Rates, per your request. I look forward to your reply!
Thank you!
this thread helped me figure out my similar issue (x1 set top box, sb8200 modem, two gocoaxes that kept having the moca light turn off, and a rogue 2.0 moca device showing up in link rates.)
my theory that the STB or modem had moca and was interferring with gocoax. Switching on the secure communication option on all my gocoax seems to have stabilized my network.
Thanks for your help! Especially pointing out that the Comcast Modem had MOCA, which I am now using to solve this problem!
> Yes, Xfinity Xi TV boxes! Is there MOCA in that box as well?
Possibly, depending on the specific boxes you have. Can you list them?
Do you have an X1 DVR, to start? And then Xi client boxes that feed off the DVR? What are the Xi# numbers? Some are wireless, some require a coax/MoCA connection to the X1 DVR.
Yes, Xfinity Xi TV boxes! Is there MOCA in that box as well?
But, interesting! With the Xfinity MOCA enabled, it finally picked up the remote goCoax and now it works great! I give up, but not going to complain! If it works, I'm happy!
Well apparently enabling MOCA on the Xfinity Modem really causes a problem! When I enabled it with just one goCoax device on the other end it would never get a network connection.
As far as putting in tht PoE device, the Comcast outside box has a Lock on it so I can get in it to add the PoE device.
At this point I can't get anything to work MOCA, because the comcast box has it enabled and when I try to disable it, it never actually disables. As long as it is enabled I can't use the MOCA functionality anywhere!
Frustrated!!!!!
