Unable to set up MOCA decives with my CM600 modem and Nighthawk router
I just installed both of these to replace my old comcast modem/router combo. Before i bought this i was told that it was MoCa enabled and compatable with my device. I just wanted to know what I am doing wrong here. Internet provider is comcast and my MoCa device is the Actiontec Single Dual-Band Wireless Network Extender and Ethernet Over Coax Adapter.

Re: Unable to set up MOCA decives with my CM600 modem and Nighthawk router
The CM600 is a DOCSIS modem. It doesn't support MoCA. MoCA can coexist with DOCSIS on the same coax cable, but you will need a second MoCA adapter. Here is one way to set up things:
[coax from street]+--+[PoE filter]+--+[splitter]+--+[CM600+--+[R7000] + + + | | | | | + [ActionTec]+-----+ +------------+[MoCA Adapter]
Alternatively:
[coax from street]+--+[PoE filter]+--+[splitter]+--+[CM600+--+[R7000] + | + [ActionTec]+----------------------+[MoCA Adapter]

Re: Unable to set up MOCA decives with my CM600 modem and Nighthawk router
did you buy right kind of splitter? for MoCA splitters need to support upto 2GHz (standard splitters have cutoff at 1 GHz).
Btw, Nice ASCII Art typing. Do you do it by hand or you have a tool to do it?
