Uverse gave my client a line of BS that they couldn't run RG6 to one of the boxes and connected it via Ethernet to the router nearby. Wife is complaining of speed isues so I was going to disconnect the Ethernet and run an RG6 to the box.

I am assuming Internet speed will pick up and I don't need to keep Ethernet connected if I use RG6...

Found this in the receiver manual on AT&T's website.


Connecting to the In-Home Network
The following diagrams illustrate examples of the connections you can use to connect your receiver
to your in-home network. Contact your service provider for the recommended connection method for
your home.
Note: The in-home coaxial and phoneline wiring networks use HomePNA 3.1 technology.

no. It won't. Uverse is an internet streaming service. as noted above, the Coax is just a "Ethernet over Coax" solution they offer. Direct Network Connection is the best way.

Uverse is just slow.

Uverse has three different Internet plans. The basic plan that is like $30 a month is something crappy like 3 MB. I thunk the top tier plan is something like 24 MB.
