Coax has a better security protection because it's usually shielded. Also range for Coax is for thinnet about 175 meters for thicknet about 400 meters.
Depends on the coax type - thinnet coax is 185 meters per segment, thicknet is 500 meters
It's the coax cable used for Thick Ethernet.

Coax cable is OK for R.F. up to several gigahertz, over medium to short runs. For data, we went to twisted-pair with 100 megabit Ethernet, and twisted-pair is now used in 10 gigabit Ethernet. So... using Nyquist, you can probably use coax cable up to gigabit speeds over medium-short distances, but I'm not aware of anyone doing it. Maybe try a google search.
To test a coax cable without using a multimeter, you can use a cable tester specifically designed for coax cables. These testers can check for continuity and signal strength without the need for a multimeter.

To test the signal of a coax cable, you can use a cable tester or a multimeter. Connect the tester to both ends of the coax cable and check for continuity and signal strength. Look for any breaks or interference in the signal to determine if the cable is functioning properly.
You will need to use an Ethernet connection in this case. Ethernet is a lot faster than a phone line. You will need a coax jack and a modem in order to have an Ethernet connection. For more convenience, you can just get an Ethernet wall jack installed if you don't have one yet, and you can just get an Ethernet cable to connect from the Ethernet wall jack to your computer, giving you a high speed internet privledge.
To check the coax signal strength and quality in your cable connection, you can use a signal strength meter or a cable modem diagnostic page. Connect the meter to the cable outlet and check the signal levels for both strength (measured in dBmV) and quality (measured in SNR or MER). On the cable modem diagnostic page, look for signal levels and error rates to assess the quality of the connection.
Using coax, you just do one long cable run, rather than with twisted pair where you do an individual run for each computer/terminal. Problem? coax's max is 10 Mbit/s, and every computer has to take turns accessing the coax. Using 10 Mbit/s twisted-pair, each computer has its own, dedicated connection to the hub/switch/router, so you're not slowed down when more than one comptuer wants access.
