Ah yes, I now remember reading that. So, you really want the Shaw Motorola/Arris/etc DCX-3510-M TV box, and possibly the Hitron CGNM-2250 Internet modem, which both use the incoming coax RG-6 directly. It's the classic Shaw architecture of the past (and still currently available), and I am a happy user of this arrangement.
Are you resisting this solution? Why? All it requires is pushing through the major resistance the Shaw rep will give you. :)

Might the TV player be able to use your own router's Wi-Fi in this case?
No. I covered that point in the information dump. The TV player makes use of special frequencies from the gateway device. When the device is put into bridged mode, all those frequencies are disabled and the TV player can no longer communicate. Hence the need to get a TV device that uses coax instead of WiFi,
