My house only has an Ethernet outlet but no coax outlet and the new internet I got requires a coax, is there something I can do? I’ve ordered a Ethernet to coax adapter but I honestly want to use it soon.

    Some things sound off to me. 1 The ISP wouldn’t send someone out since the previous tenant owes them money. That means that it had internet there before. This means you do have the connection from the ISP to your house. 2 Not all the ISPs have modem/routers that you have to plug into an Ethernet cable. Some have the COAX IN and Ethernet out. 3 where is the wire from your wall RJ45 terminated? Meaning - where does it go? Do you have a network closet that you haven’t seen yet? Some pictures would really help troubleshoot. Check your attic, closets, garage for a “ box” in the wall with some Ethernet cables, coax cables.
