i think there may be a way to make the Joey wireless. there exists a MoCA to WiFi bridge. so... just put one at the Hopper and another at the Joey.

While it might be technically possible I dont believe it will ever be "officially" supported, just due to the QOS of a WIFI network. (Ask someone on UVERSE who has one... most have gone back to wired)![]()
wifi has to maney things that can affect it. weather for example.
Dish's implementation of Moca is only as open as they wish it to be. Don't count on this working if they don't want it to.
Moca devices have to "join" the network. If Dish wants a "closed" moca system, they don't let the the unknown device join. Even if they let it join there are enough low level MAC/PHY functions they could probably discern it wasn't a direct connection from Joey to Hopper.i would think the bridges just take what they are given and pass it along. they take the packet of data, wrap it in a different package, transmit it. receive it, unwrap it and output it.
MoCA is just a transport mechanism, so in theory this should work.

no worries about support calls from me.
Dish probably wouldn't want to support a "nightmare".
"ooh! a nipple!"I'm VERY forgiving of my tv viewing. when i was much younger, i used to watch scrambled adult tv (channel 20 in detroit) just for the challenge.
What are the ethernet ports on the HR34 and H24 used for?More crap being spewed I see.
MoCA is also what DIRECTV uses for its HR34.
Is it the best way? No. Is it good enough in many, if not most, home environments? Yes.yeah, it's a great idea to deliver across a clogged 2.4 ghz band or a shorter range 5.8 ghz band when you can't even control distance between the wireless radios nor the usable bandwidth.
That's a great way to move time sensitive data.
