Your cart is empty.The ASUS MA-25 Coax to Ethernet Adapter (MoCA adapter) leverages the existing coaxial cable wiring used in your home for TC and internet services to create a MoCa network and extend your WiFi coverage and bandwidth. With MoCA, you can get up to 2.5Gbps wired backhaul connection speeds, with the added convenience of being able to place your mesh router near any active coax to establish a dead-zone-free mesh WiFi Network. Disclaimer: Actual data throughput and WiFi coverage will vary from network conditions and environmental factors, including the volume of network traffic, building material and construction, and network overhead, result in lower actual data throughput and wireless coverage.

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.

Bought a house made in the early 2000s, and there is no internal wiring for LAN cables. However - there are old tv aerial sockets everywhere! Bought three of these to send the signal throughout the house to networked devices and as a wired backhaul for mesh wifi. There has been no data drops or needs to reset any of the devices. The only downside is there is no way to log into them to change any settings. Shame they are just not as well used in the uk as they are in the USA.

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?

There are many other products that are certified to do the same. However, this model has a button to replace an tiny adapter in case you use cable Internet. I also use the coax angle bracket that is provided with it.

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.

It could be that I needed a MoCA connection (2 adapters instead of one) for my fiber internet to actually work but I'll never know. When I plugged in the Verizon adapter it worked fine, but ASUS's didn't. If I actually needed both of them, please disregard this review but at least now you know and won't make the same mistake as I did.
