Same I had to do a mesh as well. My WiFi won’t even reach my office in the basement. My house is a raised ranch with an addition. Basically shake like and L on a hill. The modem is on one point of the L, first floor. My office (with pc), is basement on the the opposite point of the L. The eero mesh was the only way I can get WiFi to the basement. But by the time it reaches my computer the speeds are slower. Running a CMD ping test to google I was getting 90ms with spikes to 200ms. Playing games (which me and my son do) we get timed out and disconnected non stop. And games like Rust that’s really bad to have happen.

Yeah it did work pretty well. I’ve called the eero company and tried to work through the problems I’m having on getting a good signal with my desktop and nothing really worked. But yea basically we DC due to time outs in online games and am experiencing a bunch of packetloss. I’ve spent weeks calling ISP and Eero and testing stuff out and came seem to fix it which is why I game to the conclusion I want the modem downstairs with the pc’s.

Thank you

Ahh so is it’s probably better if I just keep my modem up stairs and find a better solution to getting internet in basement? I’m using eero right now but by the time the signal gets to my basement it’s weak, even though I’m hardwired to the euro. I get slower browser speeds and time out of online games.

Ok thanks I thought I had read some coax was tv only! I appreciate it

Is that a bad thing? This house is pretty old built 1969 although this picture is from an expansion on the house idk when that was built.

Thanks!

I’ll check this out. I’m using eero WiFi mesh. Unfortunately my pc is hardwired to an eero as far as it could possibly be from the gateway eero. So gaming I DC constantly and even browsing is slow.. maybe this will be a solution vs moving my router downstairs

Thanks, but if it’s tv signal, does that mean internet could work too?

That’s the thing, I haven’t seen any other coaxial cables in the house, so I would know what other end to test

Thanks it will be huge if I can move my modem to this room without running any cables

Ok thanks how would I go about tracing the cables without cutting into the wall?

I literally have no idea where this runs to or why it’s there, it’s in an addition on the house the previous owner did. Should I just hook the modem up to it and see if it works lol?
