Roamio Setup with MoCA for OTA

I'm currently in a house in LA, on TWC both internet and cable. The house is on a hill line of sight to the main transmitters on Mt. Wilson and my goal is to go OTA + streaming video off the internet.



The present set up is complicated. The cable enters the home in the basement and is split there (POE filter upstream of the split). The cable then runs under the house to the living room and also a back bedroom used as an office. The cable modem is in the office. There are TVs in both office and living room.



There is Wi-Fi network run off an Airport Extreme in the office. There is no Ethernet cabling and it would be VERY difficult to run it. My idea is to use MoCA over the existing cable, but I don't know how to set it up. For one thing, the cable modem is in the office, but I wanted the Roamio in the living room, with a Mini in the office. Also, my idea was to put an indoor antenna in the living room (although I suppose it could go in the office if that would work). Reception OTA is not a problem.



I'm assuming I would need two MoCA adapters, but I'm confused about how and where to combine the antenna signal with the MoCA signal. I was assuming I'd need a diplexer of some kind? If so, what MHz would I use? Or could the MoCA adapter sit between the antenna and a Mini in the office and create the network that way? (The modem is in the office and the Roamio would go in the living room.) At this point, I have to say, I'm confused.



Thanks in advance for any help.
