      Don’t pull up that coax man. If it’s good, you can use MoCA. Some cable modems even have a MoCA bridge built-in.

          By right, to get the most out of MoCA, anybody wanting to use it should do themselves a favor and spend 10 minutes reading about where to place the filters and why some of the decades-old coax splitters in their house should be replaced first. And maybe try to map out how the coax is already running, if they can see it.

      I had one room in my old house where the line wasnt stapled to the framing and was able to bind them together and pull it through at the other end. the rest were stapled

      current house I can run them through the attic and down the inside of the walls but the attic is full of rat shit and I can’t motivate myself even with hazmat suit.
