I set up a pair of MoCA 2.5 adapters to connect my PC to my home server over coax, but the connection is only getting around 205 Mbps — slower than my Wi-Fi speeds.

My setup is:

• ISP feed goes into a PoE filter that then goes into 3-way splitter in the basement
• Splitter outputs go to:
  • two living room coax lines
  • one bedroom coax line
• In the living room:
  • modem is connected to one coax port
  • MoCA adapter is connected to the other coax port
• In the bedroom:
  • second MoCA adapter connects to the coax wall jack and then to my PC via Ethernet

The splitter is MoCA-rated, and the adapters link successfully, but performance is much lower than expected for MoCA 2.5. Wi-Fi to the server is actually faster.
