1·1 year agoI’m a multi-year MOCA user, your use case seems appropriate. I actually have two sets of adapters in use in my home network in rooms with (inexplicably) only coax lines run. I’ve had great luck with mine, they are as fast as I need them to be for gaming, video etc. and have been extremely reliable.
I think your description makes sense on setup, I don’t have cable modem so I didn’t have that, but it should basically be:
- Ethernet from router to MOCA adapter A
- Coax connection from MOCA A to destination room
- Wall coax to a splitter - it should be MOCA compatible (assuming you need tv and internet) 3a. Coax from splitter to TV (assuming you need it) 3b. Coax from splitter to MOCA adapter B
- Ethernet from MOCA B to device. I actually got a small 4-port dumb switch as an Ethernet splitter just in case I wanted to plug in multiple devices.
I’d recommend getting MOCA working without the splitter first and then once you confirm, then add the splitter, it will be easier to troubleshoot if something is working. Good luck!
That’s interesting, as a late comer to the Apple ecosystem I will admit I was just speculating. Thanks for sharing that!
If I understood correctly the Sunbird solution is basically setting up an account on a virtual computer and then relaying imessages? That has all kinds of red flags associated if true.
The obsession with blue bubbles is really silly from all sides of it. Ironically I think Apple intended it to allow people to understand when a message was secure or not, I don’t think they thought it would become a social status marker. Don’t get me wrong, they could have put effort in to better integrate once this all started and clearly they’re leveraging the situation to retain customers - I’m one of them, I gave up and went to iOS because 99% of my family is there and I can’t convince them to adopt Signal, etc.
Having said all of that, trying to build third party middleware at the expense of user security just to fake having an iPhone app is equally silly.
Great song… there’s also a live version from Later with Jools Holland on YT that is excellent.
I’m skeptical that a FF with a majority market share would continue to be as user-centric as it is now. Honestly I sort of hope that a third option comes out, but FF is my go to option for now.
I’ve lost faith in Google (nod to your username) for sure - in general I miss disruption, everyone used to believe they could do it better so no one shied away from the idea of building a better browser engine or any other technology for that matter.
Google stopped making decisions in the best interest of anyone other than their shareholders a long time ago.
I was very fortunate to see this performed live in its entirety on the FOABP tour. My ears are still ringing. 😀 Excellent song!
Every part of this song is just epic… bass line, guitar, and of course those vocals. It was like hearing something out of another dimension.
My first choice ended up in my top played albums for two years straight, these are all frequent/recent favorites…
Nice! I preordered this live album:
FACS - Maggot Brain 020324
I always try to do a purchase or two on BCF as well.
