So what are the Speeds ? 10/100/ Gigabit ? this could be cool

I can see its 100mps from the picture ..

MoCa actually is rated up to over 220mbps. But it does say that the ethernet interface is 10/100, so I am not sure if that is a limiting factor.

But if you want to experiment with MoCa cheaper go to ebay and buy 2 motorola nim100s. Same principle, much cheaper (can be found on ebay for less than $50 each).

So do you use the Motorola boxes and/or these boxes as 'bridges'? Meaning your run the original cable into this box to get the 'feed' and then run the coax out to your 'normal' cable box but this allows you to use plug in a network device into this box and utilize cable internet (if you have cable internet)? If so, can you attach a switch to it to allow multiple devices to plug-in?

@Wryker

These boxes effectively work as bridges between 2 segments of an ethernet network. In my example I have an office with my Modem, Router, computers, laptops, etc. I have a nim100 connected to the network & coax there, then I have another nim100 in my entertainment center connected to a switch. I then have my TiVo, my PS2, my pch a100, & my wireless access point also connected to the switch. Everything works seemlessly together. You wouldn't need a switch if you only had one device to connect.

@scyber
do you need two boxes? i ask since i already have my cable network box upstairs and my computers etc connected to a router off the cable network box. downstairs we also have cable so could i get one of the nim100's and run that cable through it to get access to the network?
