You're facing a common challenge: connecting devices without direct Ethernet cabling. Here are your possibilities—consider what you can do next:

- You could try setting up two modems and routers side by side, possibly using a bridge or extension cable to link them together.
- If you have access to a coaxial line, it might work as a backup or alternative connection.
- Another option is to explore wireless solutions like Wi-Fi extenders or mesh networks if available.
- Check if your current power-over-Ethernet setup can be upgraded or if a different wired method is needed.

Think about your budget and technical comfort when deciding the best path forward. Let me know if you want help planning the setup!

Sure, just relocate the modem to your room and connect it with a brief Ethernet connection.

Find an Ethernet cable in the wall near the coaxial connection. Yes, you can set up Ethernet over coax, though it may be a bit costly.

These power line adapters often cause issues. You might try using any available 5GHz Wi-Fi connection from your router. If the router isn’t working well, the owner could consider upgrading it. Also, check if your games support Wi-Fi connectivity.
