My apartment has coax going to each room but no cat5/cat6, tried powerline... complete s***

 

Any suggestions would be much appreciated

Why not WiFi ?
The trouble I can see with the coax is it runs back to a central splitter that may not be in your condo. Not guaranteed there is a path room to room.

Walls too thick, too much rf interference.

I've tried wireless uplink and powerline, coax is the best and it all runs back to the back of my unit beside the router.

 

I ordered one set of these adapters and its working great thus far (just received it today), I just need another set or two... unfortunately the place I ordered from only had one set of the units available.

 

Ethernet over coax is quite efficient when you don't have cat/cat6 cabling but have coax, both tv and ethernet go over it.

Lazada have them. Shipping from abroad though.

Or just order directly from China. That would be my choice - but have to be prepared to wait 2-3 weeks.
