Home Network Overhaul Episode II: Attack of the Noise

Okay, I gave up on powerline…

It's been about a year and a half since my last post, and I bit the bullet yesterday and swapped out my powerline-based network and replaced it with coax due to an increasing amount of issues that I think were caused by noise.

No one who follows me here cares about any of this type of stuff, but I'm going to talk about it anyway!

Summary

Yesterday, I replaced my pair of HomePlug powerline network bridges (from TP-Link) with a pair of MoCA coax bridges (from TRENDnet). My network speed to my bedroom (which is where I was using this) increased by literally a factor of 100. Wow!

The Issues

At some point in the past year, I noticed an abrupt drop in the speed of my HomePlug setup. At the same time, random dropouts started happening of a few minutes at a time, at least a time or two per day. The bridges don't give an indication of an issue via the LEDs when this happens, but I troubleshooted enough to identify that the link between the devices was where the issue was happening (as opposed to my switch).

I'm guessing there was a change somewhere in my building that introduced a lot of noise into the power lines, which my poor HomePlug network just couldn't handle.

What About Ethernet?

My original plan was to run Cat6 cabling through my ceiling from my living room (where the ONT is) to my bedroom. But the more I learned about my apartment, the more I realized this would be impractical. The coaxial cable that goes to my room is fastened inside the wall, so I can't fish any cable with it; plus, the walls have firestops so that makes it even more difficult.

My compromise was going to be putting a surface mount jack near the ceiling, but A) that would be so ugly, and B) I don't even think there's a straight shot for me to do that run above the ceiling without crawling through the ceiling, which I REALLY want to avoid (there's probably so many spiders and house centipedes up there!).

Eventually, even after buying all the cabling and supplies, I decided to abandon that approach.

Setting up MoCA

This process couldn't've been easier. The coax cables in the ceiling aren't connected to a source or anything, and I actually already had the line from the living room connected directly to the line going to my bedroom for some other stuff, so it was as simple as plugging in the bridges and waiting a minute for the connection to establish. I believe there's a way to encrypt the connection just like with HomePlug, but since I don't share the cabling with any other units, I'm probably not going to bother.

Conclusion

I'm enjoying MoCA! It's fast and so far reliable. I'd highly recommend going this route over something like HomePlug if you need a wired connection and happen to have coax wired in your place.

Yesterday when I was making the fries I was kinda worried because small amounts of oil were flying out of my pan and making a big mess on the stovetop. I was worried about it getting all over the burner and starting a fire.

Today while cleaning up the kitchen I found that at some point my maintenance guy installed an automatic fire extinguisher under the vent hood. This is really neat. It has a little fuse. If a fire gets big enough the flames light a fuse setting off a firecracker inside immediately dumping dry chem powder straight down onto the fire to smother the flames.

Onsite Chamber Test: Ensuring Airtight Fire Safety and Smoke Control in Buildings

An Onsite Chamber Test is a critical evaluation process used in construction and building maintenance to verify the integrity of fire-rated barriers, smoke seals, and passive fire protection systems. This test plays an essential role in ensuring buildings are compliant with fire safety codes and regulations. With increasing emphasis on life safety and risk mitigation in modern infrastructure, onsite chamber testing has become a fundamental part of MEP and fire protection services.

The Onsite Chamber Test involves pressurizing a dedicated test chamber with air and measuring pressure drop over a specified period to assess the air-tightness of joints, firestop systems, or smoke seals. If there's leakage, it indicates failure in the barrier or sealant, which must be addressed before a building can pass safety inspections or obtain occupancy certification.

This procedure is particularly important in critical areas such as riser shafts, cable penetrations, wall joints, and slab edges, where fire and smoke could spread rapidly if seals are not properly installed. By performing an Onsite Chamber Test, developers and contractors can ensure their firestop and smoke containment systems are effectively implemented.

Onsite chamber testing is usually conducted during the final stages of construction or renovation and is often mandated by local civil defense authorities or international safety standards like NFPA and UL. Accurate documentation and pass/fail criteria are recorded as part of the inspection process. The test is not only a quality assurance step but also a legal requirement in many jurisdictions.

Specialized technicians perform the test using calibrated tools, sensors, and software to measure and record air pressure behavior. Based on results, project managers can determine whether additional sealing, repair, or retesting is required. By identifying gaps and weaknesses early, costly reworks or safety hazards can be avoided.

In high-rise buildings, hospitals, data centers, and industrial complexes, the importance of Onsite Chamber Testing cannot be overstated. These facilities often contain complex mechanical systems, hazardous materials, and sensitive equipment—making fire containment and air sealing vital to operational safety.

In addition to fire protection, chamber tests can also improve energy efficiency by identifying leaks that contribute to HVAC loss. Sealing these gaps helps maintain controlled environments, reduce energy costs, and support green building certifications such as LEED or Estidama.

For engineers, consultants, and construction managers, incorporating an Onsite Chamber Test into their project workflow demonstrates commitment to quality, compliance, and end-user safety. It's a smart investment in the building’s longevity, performance, and reputation.

Whether you are working on a new build or a retrofit, scheduling an Onsite Chamber Test is a proactive approach to verifying the fire safety readiness of your structure. It gives peace of mind to stakeholders, from regulators to building owners and occupants.
