I had my internet upgraded from 75/75 to gigabit a few days ago. The installer ran an ethernet cable from the ONT to the new gigabit router. He also connected the old coax cable. I asked him why there was 2 cables for the new router and he responded by saying the TV's On Demand feature needed the coax. I still don't understand since the DVR is fed by it's own coax cable. Why does the new gigabit router need both cables ?
