My neighbor got this set for his 3000 sq ft colonial. He has his main one in the basement and only deployed one of the units and he has good coverage all through the house. Recommend setting the 5ghz band to 80mhz channel width from 160mhz to not hog the band and get a little further range.

Trace all of your coax and see it it all comes together with splitters so that you can add 2 adpaters and they can talk to each other.

Here are some diagrams from GoCoax that show how to use it. It's been off line today, though.

Look at UniFi consoles and the UniFi line.

Read r/Ubiquiti subreddit.

Do you have a DOCSIS 3.1 modem, and if so, do you have a PoE filter at the input like in the second diagram from GoCoax?

Short patch cable and 2 RJ45 couplers will work fine and is much simpler if you don't have the tools for punch downs.

Here are some diagrams from GoCoax that show how to use MoCA. Make sure your splitters are 5-1675mhz and pay attention to the location of PoE filters in the diagram that applies to you.

Better than Powerline adapter are MoCA adapters using coax it you happen to have that in place.

Here are some diagrams from GoCoax that show how to use it.

Is this internet only without TV cable services? If so you're golden with fiber as others have already answered.

Fiber providers provide the TV services in different manners. Verizon Fios uses the coax to run the TV signal from the ONT to the STBs. Spectrum now provides a streaming app for their TV delivery.

Here are some diagrams from GoCoax that show how to use MoCA. Be sure that your splitters are 5-1675mhz to support the MoCA frequencies.

Hope this gives you a visual of how this all works.

I have actually looked at the Omada interface and it is similar to the UniFi one, but I like the UniFi setup much better. It's not really that hard to learn if you're willing to start slowly to understand what each component does. The initial setup is fairy simple out of the box. Additional features is where the learning curve is.
