If there is no available cable connection in the room, then you must take the appropriate steps
to install a cable connection. This may include reconfiguring the internal home coaxial wiring or
adding external devices and cabling.
•
Install the first MoCA adapter and your Smart TV, set-top box, gaming devices, or other
Ethernet-enabled devices in the first qualified room.
• Install the second MoCA adapter and yourcomputer, cable modem/router, gateway, or other
network access device in the second qualified room.
•
Check the connections on both MoCA adapters. Make sure the Coax LEDs on both adapters
light SOLID within five minutes. This indicates that a coaxial link was established between the
two adapters.
Note
: If the Coax LEDs do not light SOLID within five minutes, you will have to disconnect the
power adapter on both MoCA adapters and then reconnect them. If the Coax LEDs still fail to
light SOLID, see
Troubleshooting Solutions for more information.
•
Set up Internet access on both MoCA adapters - must have access to a computer on the
network.
