Do you have any insight into how to get MOCA working when you have Comcast 
modems and digital boxes? Rumor has it that Comcast uses MOCA to connect 
their digital streaming extension boxes to the main DVR, and that multiple 
MOCA networks won't run on the same wire.

I'd love to be able to configure a MOCA device to talk directly to the 
Comcast modem to extend the IP network to another floor, or use them in a 
pair like powerline adapters.

Then again, it might be cheaper to have my cable guy pull a Cat 6 between 
the two spaces. Seeing as I'll be working from home for a good part of 2021, 
it might be worth it.
