MoonDragn , sadly I gave up on these Powerline devices. I have 3 MOCA Adapters in the house and consistently get 900Mbps across the network.I keep the powerline devices for a convenience benefit, if there is a spot where I want CAT5/6 connection and there is no COAX port in that area.

R1200RT Yeah, unfortunately I am not getting the bonded moca speeds in the house. There probably is a splitter somewhere that needs to be replaced. I get only 530ish mbps through the coax. I was hoping the powerlines would give me a better performance but they are even worse.

MoonDragn , that 530Mbps is definitely good. Anything about 200Mbps is MOCA 2.0 and not MOCA 1.1. Bonded requires all MOCA adapters to be MOCA 2.0 and your splitters all need to support up to 2Ghz. I was fortunate enough that all my COAX terminated in the attic and that is where I installed an 8 port 2Ghz splitter. Yah, it's disappointing that the powerline stuff just has never really lived up to the promise of high speeds....I guess a lot of users find the convenience enough value.
