AMAZING PRODUT *** AWSOME RESULTS ** LOT OF $$$ SAVINGS

AWESOME Outcome of Saturday morning, want to share if anybody wants to implement this in their homeAs we all know, Verizon and Comast put the modem in the basement. They claim that today's routers are powerful enough to give speedy internet throughout the home. I had issues with the internet towards the far end of the house. After doing a lot of research and trying at least 2 products finally got this to work.Purchased a product name "CComtrend GCA-6000 kit," it is Ethernet over the COAX Adapter kit. This device allows an Ethernet signal to transfer over the current TV Cable. You plug in one device to your basement router and another device to the other end of the TV wall outlet. if you hardwire the device, it gets "full speed". I connected another Linksys router on the other end, and that area is now blazing fast. I have a 1GB connection and now using this device I get full 1GB(Hard wired) on the other end. There are two speeds one from the Verizon router to the Verizon Hub and then your device to the Verizon Router. I got great speeds on both levels.**SAVING ON VERIZON EXTENDER FEE FOR EVERY MONTH from now on **The only limitation is that the COAX cable should not have any other traffic, which means current cable should not be used for TV transmission, which most of the homes switched to Wifi based devices anyway.Anybody have the same problem can look into this option here is a link for the device.Highly recommend thisi product, installation was extremely easy(it took me more time to find out which COAX I need to connect as I have 7 COAX outlets :-)https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MRV4WA1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

1200 Mbps is impossible! But great for 1000 Mbps.

1+ year update...These units seem to be capable of delivering max around 500 Mbps in data thruput, in a point-to-point (read best case) scenario. Works fine for my use case, but YMMV.1200 Mbps advertized is total thruput, i.e. if you deploy these units (at least 4 units) within your home coax infrastructure then you have theoretical potential of achieving 1200 Mbps thruputs simultaneously across multiple units. However thats raw thruput in an ideal environment, so practically you will see a lot lower. I do not have 4 units deployed as such so I cannot confirm the actual thruput in that scenario. I would hope the actual total thruput in that scenario would be 600+ Mbps.Original review below...This has worked out quite well for my use case. Existing isolated coax cable run (as part of a previous dish setup that I do not use), to supply data at 1Gbps from one to the other end of the house. I haven't tested thruput but I can confirm I am able to get 100+ Mbps. Hooked on to an unmanaged switch feeding a WAP, I was able to run multiple lag-free HD streams simultaneously while getting 200+ Mbps reading from a phone connected to the WAP.For my use case, installation was too easy, simple plug and play. In my case, I tested out the system with a shorter coax cable confined to my desk to make sure the units worked and weren't DoA.The units seemed to come with default hard coded IP of 192.168.0.5, which seems to not matter in my 192.168.1.x subnet. So, in other specific cases I cannot say what will happen:1. If you're running these in a 192.168.0.x subnet. If theres IP conflict you will have to resolve it somehow.2. If you utilize your house's built-in "coax network", YMMV. It will all depend on the complexity and quality of the network, types, qualities and counts of splitters and filters used throughout etc. Do keep in mind, you can only use these if you're not getting your internet via cable, and/or you're not subscribing to cable TV. More technically speaking, you need to ensure the frequencies currently utilized within your coax network does not fall within the frequency range used by G.hn ethernet over coax specs.So, I could've also gotten and used MoCA for my use case, which seems to be more future friendly and expandable option (i.e. I could later move it over to my coax network to coexist with cable internet). I chose this to try out G.hn technology and also save about $30 compared to the cheapest MoCA bonded 2.0 pair I could find (motorola).One annoyance I would like to mention (but not deduct a star for), is the claim of 1200 Mbps. This is impossible, as the units have built-in 1000 Mbps or Gigabit Ethernet port. No switch I know will be able to supply it anything higher than 1000 Mbps. Although it may be possible for the two modules to speed up transmission of data once in the unit to send to the other unit. However the other end connecting to a switch will again be negotiated down to 1000 Mbps max. So yeah 1200 Mbps is impossible, even in theory!

Initial review is good - Updated review after 1yr

I'm getting 497mbps up and down within my network between these. Setup wasn't too bad. I reconfigured my coax spaghetti in the basement to be basically a straight shot from one of these to the other. Nothing else on the coax but these things. Happy this worked out because I didn't want to run Cat6 through my apartment and deal with redoing drywall and all that. I'm happy with 500. It's a good amount of speed for the compromise of not dealing with running wires. I'll update this review in a while if something changes, but for now - Good stuff. Engineer approved.Update - After 1 year I can tell you these things have worked quite well. No instability, no dropped packets. I even did some additional rewiring to shorten the distance and splitters between the two, as well as an upgrade to the switch it's connecting to. I broke 500 and I'm in the upper threshold for speed, sometimes at around 540, which is wonderful. Remember 1200mbps is a theoretical limitation for the technology, with all things being perfect. Expect more like 300-600mbps. 1200mbps might be possible for dual band, which these are not. They're also half the price.My biggest need was in latency reduction and consistent/reliable packet delivery, not perfect gigabit speeds, because I do Steam streaming from my gaming desktop to other parts of my house, either wired to the Steam link, or through AC WiFi. For this it works flawlessly.
