Hello,

I want to build my own router because the current one I have is missing some features I require (like netboot for example). The only problem I have found so far is that I need some way to convert my incoming coax/cable signal to rj45 because I want to fully discard the old router as it is only taking up space. I know that MoCa exists, but as far as I know, that is only used to convert an existing rj45 to coax, or am I wrong?

The current setup is like this:
Incoming Cable --> Fritzbox 6660 Cable --> all other devices

and I want to change it to:

Incoming Cable --> some kind of converter --> my router --> all other devices

Any help is appreciated

    thanks,

    I did some further research and it turns out that Vodafone, my provider, seems to only allow bridge mode if you use their own modem/router combo for all available options / your own modem/router for a specific data tarif. Wich I do not have. I’m gonna have to call them and ask if I can even do that with my current fritzbox or If I’ll have to get another device from them or some other option
