Right now my gaming PC is linked to Wi-Fi, but the connection isn't strong enough for competitive online play. Even though I rarely notice lag or errors, using Wi-Fi over Ethernet feels like a disadvantage. I've always used Ethernet, but moved in with my uncle and ended up relying on Wi-Fi at his place. Now I have the modem near my PC, connected to a router in the living room. Once I tried moving the modem to my room, my uncle lost his connection to his basement. I'm considering two options: buy a new modem and install it in my room, or explore other solutions. My gaming performance is dropping, which is really frustrating.
Unless you have a Cat5 powerline setup, it’s likely your only option. You can’t pair two modems together.
Only if you intend to purchase another internet service plan. Even then, having two modems connected to the same address usually doesn’t work reliably with most providers. I only consider it acceptable when one modem handles data and the other is reserved for digital voice only. This advice applies specifically to Cable Internet (Coax). If you have coax at both locations—where the router/modem sits and your PC—is there a chance you could use Moca, though those adapters tend to be costly.
Employs the upper sections of the coax cable that other brands don't use. Moca 2.0 Unbonded adapters support 400 Mbps while Bonded ones reach 800 Mbps but operate in half-duplex mode. The main limitations are: 1) These won't work with the same coax as Satellite TV services (DirecTV uses its own Moca adapters rated for 100 Mbps). 2) A Moca filter must be installed on the primary cable entering your home if you're using this coax with a cable company. Some providers may add one if you have a whole-home DVR. 3) You require high-quality coax such as RG6. For additional details visit: http://www.mocalliance.org/
It secures onto the coax, must be positioned ahead of the initial splitter on the cable entry point. On the exterior of the home, look for a demarcation box; if accessible, you can place the filter inside.
