Most mesh or repeater configurations limit your total bandwidth to half or more since they reuse the same radio for both device communication and network linking. The MikroTik Audience offers an alternative by allowing full 5GHz performance through a second radio operating on a different frequency, effectively merging devices without bandwidth loss. You may want to explore this option.

It shouldn't be a problem since unless Google employs a Moca router like Verizon does, it won't cause any issues. Most likely, Google is converting the fiber connection to Ethernet at home. What @sazrocks is pointing out is that you separate the coax cables both adapters use, so they don't pick up the DirectTV signal. The main concern would be if you also want TV through the coax; then the Moca adapters wouldn't function properly. Technically, you'd splice the two coax cables together using a barrel connector, effectively creating a longer coax line with Moca connectors at each end.

This technique won't function if you still want TV signals from your wall plates for MoCA, since those will be disconnected. Most households have satellite receivers in only a few rooms, making it reasonable to assume you can still apply this approach. Coax cables resemble Ethernet cables but contain just one wire and connect directly. One end goes into the wall with a coax plate, while the other ends into a cable box inside your home, along with other cables. You should locate the cables marked for the rooms you wish to link—ideally labeled, otherwise you'll need to try different connections or use a probe to identify them—and then unscrew them from the splitter. After that, attach them using a coupler, and MoCA should work between the two rooms.

This behavior is typical for devices such as the Google WiFi, which share the same radio for connecting to other devices and also use it to link with clients. The MikroTik Audience addresses this by employing a distinct 5GHz radio for interlinking.
