The diagram is incorrect, but still works. You want to run the cable from the jack to the moca adapter, then coax out from moca to modem. Aside from that it looks good , but like I said it will work either way just not as efficient. Although this post is out of date, it is still relevant aside from the hardware being much faster -- up to 1gig speeds.

I immediately picture the model car scene from Back To The Future

Nicely done! I have repurposed an old laptop LCD for a smart mirror the same way with the RPi ... what I am not understanding is why you would 'want' a RPi computer? You went from a slow laptop to a slow RPi essentially. What are the use cases for this thing?

I just so happened to have done this very same project in my kitchen! The only difference is that I do not have a touch screen monitor. Instead I chose a wireless "air mouse" / keyboard combo that has programmable buttons to turn on the monitor as well. It works flawlessly!**Something to be aware of** : I have a newer version of the intel compute stick (usb 3.0), and it does not have a "sleep" function. Apparently it has some feature built in to consume less power, but I am not a fan of how hot it always runs. I think there would be advantages to mounting a NUC on the back of the monitor even though it may be a bit more horsepower than you need. Works great streaming cable (xfinity/comcast) while cooking! Look up the air mouse!!!!Great post, thanks again.
