Configuring Your MoCA
Network
With the SBG6782-AC MoCA interface, you can create a reliable home network using your
existing coaxial wiring. MoCA provides Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity with your set-top
boxes, Smart TVs, and any other Ethernet-enabled electronic devices in your home. You can also
use MoCA adapters to further extend your MoCA home network to connect additional Smart
TVs, computers, gaming consoles, and other network devices.
You can enable or disable the SBG6782-AC MoCA interface. If the SBG6782-AC is not set up as
the MoCA Network Controller, it will not have any control over the other devices on the MoCA
network. If you disable the SBG6782-AC as the MoCA Network Controller, then you are allowing
another device to become the MoCA Network Controller.
