ASUS 2.5Gbps Ethernet Over Coax Adapter (MA-25 1 Pack), MoCA 2.5, High Speed Internet, Mesh backhaul, TV Streaming, MPS Security, Wall-mountable

Easy setup and works perfectly.

Works like a charm, very easy to set up. Basically just plug and play. I have 3 of these set up around my place and they all auto negotiate.

i don't know if it's just my luck or what, but I bought it twice, thinking it may be just that one bad one. Both not working. The two bundle kit one work flawlessly, but I want to add one more to another room. Both turn one for like a second or two them completely off, plug in ethnet cable, only ethnet light stays on. I plugged in the one came with the kit, same cable, same everything, just works with no problem at all.I called the tech support, no one picks up. Why put a "STOP" label to contact support if there is no support?

I'm a big fan of Asus but this experience was aggravating...I ordered the Asus XC5 and two of these adapters solely because it's one of the routers with MoCA built-in. Originally I ordered two Hitron MoCA adapters ($20 cheaper per pair thinking MoCA was standardized) but those were not compatible due to the Asus MPS security so I ordered 2x MA-25 adapters next. I plugged in included coax cable to the router and the MA-25 and powered it up but the 3x led's would illuminate briefly then turn off. I pressed the MPS pairing on the router, pressed the pair button on the MA-25 but nothing. I cycled the power, pressed the pair buttons again, nothing. Rebooted the router, same thing. I tried multiple times and then called Asus support but they had NO idea what MoCA was nor what this device did. They wanted me to add it to the router as a node. After 10 minutes of explaining their product to them they said 'sounds like it's defective' so I returned and re-ordered.Next order, same thing! What did I miss? I HAD TO PLUG IN AN ETHERNET DEVICE FOR IT TO PAIR.1-Plug in the coax cable to both devices2-Plug an ethernet device (laptop, PC, etc) to the adapter3-Power up the adapter and wait for the middle led to remain steady4-Press the pair button on the router (I assume the 2nd MoCA device if you're using these end to end)5-Enjoy ethernet backhaul speeds and reliability (at least I hope long term)I don't know why this is necessary nor why it's not specified in the instructions. This was so frustrating that this simple detail would've saved me so much time.

Recently, we had fiber to the home service installed and needed a way to connect the fiber modem/router to the existing coax line running to our home office (previously used for cable internet). This Asus ethernet to coax adapter met that requirement. In this configuration, you'll need two (2) units - one connected to the fiber modem/router and another connected to your wireless router/switch in your chosen room, as shown in the pictures. Simple install - made all connections, connected power supplies, it started up and transmitted our internet flawlessly.

I’m sure this is a fine moca adapter for a lot of networks but it does NOT communicate at all with Fios 2.5 moca-capable Gigabit Routers in the CR1000 line. There is a frequency mismatch between the coax signal output by the Fios router and the signal that would be transmissible by the Asus MoCA 2.5 Adapter. An Actiontec MoCA adapter works because that’s what Verizon rebranded to sell themselves. Sadly, the Asus unit is useless if you have Verizon Fios.

Connected one adapter in my basement from my AT&T fiber gateway and another to my mesh router on my 2nd floor, worked perfectly with the full 500mbps connection

Works as expected and excellent
