So here's the deal: My apartment complex only offers Spectrum as the internet provider, and after getting all the equipment sent, we discovered there's no coax cable available. The landlord said it should be on one of the walls, but when they remodeled, they cut the coax for the downstairs completely, leaving us with no connection. The landlord refused to let us run a cable from outside and wouldn't pay for installation either. Now, I've found some wall plug coax adapters on Amazon that could convert an outlet into a coax connection. My question is: do these adapters actually work for connecting to Spectrum internet? Or would it be a waste of money since coax cables are designed to function a certain way?

Yes, those wall coax adapters are designed to transmit internet signals over power lines. They can let you run internet from your modem through your walls to whatever device you need it to. Just make sure you check the product specs to confirm compatibility with Spectrum.
I think the real question is whether they can handle the coax connection specifically for the modem, not just from the modem to other devices. You might want to look for reviews on that!
