XG1v4 Interferes with MoCA 2.0 network
Thought I would share my solution to a problem with my recent upgrade to an XG1v4 DVR set top box. It appears the XG1v4 has some MoCA capability built-in, most likely to support secondary TV boxes. Unfortunately, it interferes with my existing MoCA 2.0 network running on ActionTec ECB6200 adapters. Since there is no way to turn off MoCA from within the XG1v4 settings, I went ahead and installed a POE MoCA filter on the coax input to the XG1v4. This prevents the errant MoCA signal from the XG1v4 to get out and interfere with my MoCA 2.0 network. Once I added the POE filter everything worked fine again - no more interference and signal dropping.

All X1 boxes use MoCA to talk to other X1 boxes, and in some cases, Comcast gateways.
