Hello! No, same house for both scenarios. Rogers is the ISP. The XB7 is inside the room next to the garage where the 2 way splitter is located and where the rogers coax terminates.

Why do you need a MoCA splitter, when all your equipment lives in the basement? Why even mess with MoCA unless there is some other connectivity that I am missing.

Currently everything is in the basement but the Wi-Fi reception on the second floor is poor and I am looking to place the router on that floor for better coverage.

Hope that clears the confusion.
