You would need some electronics at each end for such a setup to work , these are available in the US , but I dont see any available over here , probably something to do with possible interference with TV signals.

Anyway , they are not cheap , and there are other ways to get ethernet around the home for less money.
Have you considered homeplugs ?
Many thanks for your reply,
I have a pair of develo av 200 mbps compact homeplugs, they are rated at 200 mbps but in the real world I get around 60-84 mbps. As you probably know, homeplugs work by sending internet over the electrical circuit of your home. But in my home I have 2 different electrical circuits. So with a homeplug connected to the mains in the room where I have my computer and then the ethernet end is connected to my router through to my PC which is in this same room. Then I can use the other homeplug in some rooms upstairs and downstairs. But then the homeplug does not work in my TV room downstairs. As it seems the mains sockets are on another circuit. Now just outside this TV room in another room the homeplug works amazing. I wonder if you can tell me, can I plug another homeplug in the wall in this room and then plug the ethernet end of the homeplug into a 802.11n wireless router and use it as a bridge to send wifi signals to any wifi connected device in my TV room?
The second question, if we go back to the ethernet over coax, it was my understanding from what I read. That you buy just 1 ethernet to coax networking bridge and you connect that to your router where your PC is and then a coax cable into the bridge and into the TV wall plate. Then your entire houses coax cabling is converted into ethernet. Then all you need is a coax to ethernet cable for each room where you want to connect a computer to the TV socket. Then from what I read now it seems that you need another ethernet to coax network bridge for each room that you want to use your computer with the coax TV socket. Is that correct? If this is, then it's going to be very expensive to do as pretty much the same as using homeplugs. Well the only thing about ethernet over coax is that you can get speeds of using an ethernet cable. Not 1GBPS speeds with a gigabit router as the coax cabling in your home doesn't have enough bandwidth like ethernet. But you will get at least a minimum of 100 mbps sustained over coax which is much better than the real world speeds of homeplugs. And especially useful for streaming around the house 1080p videos.
a quick last question, as the homeplug does not work in my TV room because it's on another electrical circuit. Is there a chance that the ethernet over coax will carry from the networking bridge in the room where my PC/router is and so it does not matter whether my TV room is not on the same electrical circuit. Is there a chance that the coax cabling is all inter connected unlike the electrical circuit in my house, and so it should work right?
If you can offer me some answers to my questions that would be really useful.
Any help much appreciated
Many thanks in advance
