TV still comes out of the coax, if you have it. There's an ethernet
port on the ONT wall-box. You can ask them to turn this port on instead
of using the separate cable-modem/wifi/router they give you. The
installers are clueless, but if you ask them over the phone, they'll
switch it over.
Likewise, if you want a cablecard, you have to call them over the
phone. I had to get them to do full reset of my cablecard before it
would work - they were actually nice over the phone!
