Your desciption wasn't very clear.Are you trying to use a coaxial run as a ethernet run?&nbsp; If so, you could look into moca adapters. (ethernet over coax)&nbsp;

&gt; Model: CM400|DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; You have one of those?&nbsp;&gt; Is there available any kind of adapter that could convert the coaxial&gt; to an cat5 connection?&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; What, exactly, are you trying to do?&nbsp;&gt; the place that we are in use only cat5 connection, the internet&gt; provider can't help, so the only way is to get adapters in any are.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "the place that we are in"?&nbsp; Do you mean that you are in a buildingwhich provides Ethernet connections for your Internet service?&nbsp; If so,then a cable modem like a CM400 woud be generally useless to you, withor without any kind of adapters.&nbsp;&nbsp; "the internet provider"?&nbsp; Care to elaborate?&nbsp;&gt; Your desciption wasn't very clear.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; _That_ is true.&nbsp;&gt; Found them, yes, that was what I meant.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I doubt it, but from your description of your situation, it's hard tobe sure.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; MoCA adapters are useful in a situation where you have a co-axialcable run, but you wish that you had an Ethernet cable run between thesame points.&nbsp; If you do _not_ have a co-axial cable run, and your onlyco-axial thing is the CM400, then you don't want MoCA adapters.

Hello, to you all,&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Let me try to detail this out, and perhaps there will be better resolution,&nbsp;I work for the AAFES,&nbsp; on a military&nbsp; base, the internet provider that supports all of the base have ethernet connection for the room only, the Netgear routers have coaxial connection only ( three or four models) that we have set on POG, and so we can't sell&nbsp; them as they would need some kind of adapter that will convert the coaxial to ethernet connection thru cat5 cable.Is that possible? is there aby adapter available.&nbsp;
