TiVo happens to be a device with USB ports and an Ethernet port, making it capable to communicate back to the cable headend.
The "tuner resolver" will connect to both the cable and the USB port, and will communicate with the head end over the cable. No ethernet port is required. If a cablecard TV has a USB port and the ability to update its firmware, it potentially could be upgraded to handle SDV.

Re: oh, so I see how it works...

I never said it communicated with the headend over the Ethernet, I know how cable devices communicate with the headend, obviously, it's over the coax.

My point was, that the TiVo has USB ports and Ethernet, while his TV doesn't, which makes it incapable of having a dongle of any kind to allow SDV with CableCard. And somehow he was blaming TiVo for the make of his TV.
