A MoCA (Multimedia over Coax) "Point of Entry" filter is designed to keep MoCA signals concentrated in your home and may improve the performance of a MoCA home network. Install it in-line only at the point of entry of your cable line into your home. This Universal MoCA Point of Entry (PoE) filter is specially designed to work with all cable providers. Review: Must Have for TiVo w/ Mini! - I recently had a TiVo Premier XL4 that died. I had it as the MoCa "server" and have a 2nd generation Mini that was connected via MoCa and it worked great! I replaced the XL4 with the BOLT 1TB and couldn't get the Mini to connect via MoCa. It kept throwing an error when trying to connect with it. Ethernet worked fine but the throughput wasn't the best and at times the Mini would lag. After a little research (since TiVo support is always useless) I found that someone was having a very similar situation but with a Roamio and a Point of Entry (PoE) Filter solved their issue. I ordered this (at the time with Prime shipping) and installed it at the other end of the feed Charter had brought into my house that connected to their connection outside. The connection outside has a fancy rubber enclosure around their line from the outside and the line that runs into my house that I didn't want to destroy. Prior to installation I ran a speed test on my internet connection. Since I knew where the other end of the main feed was I installed it on the input/uplink port of the 8 port splitter/amp. To confirm I was correct about it being the feed, I disconnected that cable and verified that none of the bedrooms had service and that the Internet was down before doing so. Once the feed was connected again I confirmed everything was working and that my internet speeds were where they were previously. Next, I went to my Mini, unplugged the Ethernet cable and changed the network settings to MoCa and within seconds it asked how the system should get its IP address, which was further then I ever got before with the BOLT as the server. Once I finished the rest of the prompts I was up and operational. So far zero lag going with MoCa vs Ethernet! I'm very pleased with how this played out! It's very critical that this filter gets installed either outside between where the service comes to the house and goes into the house or how I did it. This should come with all TiVo Mini's by default! Super easy to install and not only did it fix my issue but it will also keep my MoCa traffic in my house and not all over my neighborhood. =] Review: Bad investment - Did not work at all!

Worked perfectly with my TiVo
Works exactly as it was supposed to for a small price. When I set up my new TiVo Bolt with 4 TiVo Mini units, it would not work properly, but his unit fixed all of that for a small price and with minimal effort.

Did not work
Unfortunately the filter did not work, when I installed it I no longer had any internet reception. After I removed it I once again had good reception. I am returning this POE filter.

What I needed
I live in an Apartment with multiple xfinity customers and This is exactly what I needed. I don’t have cable so I just put in right into the gateway and it cut out all the MoCa bleeding. They should’ve installed a PoE filter from the get go but this is a cheap and easy fix

Too much $$$ for 40 dB MoCA filter
A 40 dB filter offers too little protection given MoCA has an allowed 57 dB loss between nodes. The LPF-1002M6/SGM fails to prevent a MoCA connection in a simple direct-connect test between a pair of MoCA adapters, as shown in the attached image. Given MoCA filters with 70 dB stop-band attenuation are available for half the price of this unit, buyer be aware. NOTE: The attached pics only depict test scenarios for demonstrating the MoCA filter effect on MoCA connectivity. A MoCA filter wouldn't be used in this way in an actual setup.
