UPC broadband at 2nd tv point

    This might be a daft question but....

    I'm thinking of switching to UPC and I have a PC near where the new UPC modem will be situated - this will be fine.

    I have a 2nd PC elsewhere in the house & the existing wireless connection to that PC isn't great so I am currently using a Belikin HomePlug to get that on the network - this mainly works ok but does drop off occasionally.

    Beside this 2nd PC is a tv port (currently dead) but does run back to near where the 1st PC will be.

    Is there any device I can use to run the network over this coaxial cable (in the same way as a HomePlug runs over the electrical cable)

    Something like a netgear moca perhaps?

    I think they would do the job.
    Can't find anywhere outside the US selling them but if I do need to get a set I'm sure I'll get them somewhere.

    Thanks.
