TiVo Roamio (T6) no MoCA what am I missing?

Hello all. I have searched and can't find the answer I am looking for. I have Atlantic Broadband (ABB) Cable and want to add TiVo T6. I currently own my Surfboard Modem non-MoCA. I called and wanted to get just the TiVo box and not rent their subpar MoCA Modem. They told me I can't I had to use their MoCA Modem. Here is the twist.



My boss has the ABB TiVo and connected straight to Ethernet Zero MoCA and has been running it 1.5 years this way zero issues and can broadcast to iPads and what not.



Another friend has the same setup Zero MoCA modem/Adapter and has been running the T6 this way for 6-8 months.



I have asked 7 different people in support and sales as to why I need MoCA and what am I missing. Each person gives different answer from Ethernet port is not soldiered in to ABB sends out a signal to kill non-MoCA connections to you can't use iPads with it if you don't use MoCA. Well so far we have proved all the answers wrong.



Is it just a sales pitch and they have to sell it as a package bundle? I just feel if you have run it with zero MoCA for over a year with zero issues then MoCA is not a must. So if it is not a must does it gain me anything.



Thanks for your help in advance!
