Ordered the tivo for my mum through virgin she doesnt have broadband though question is do the catch up services work through the tivo box or does it require broadband a quick google seems to suggest the feed into the tivo has a 10mb connection as standard so should be fine.. just checking she will be able to watch netflix through it and catch up tv etc..
quick VM/Tivo question

TiVo has its own internet but all you need is the line and connect to vermin,but you can look at somthings on the net but not as much as you think.I have it I think its over rated.
YOU TUBE is good I like this on big screen but all you need is laptop and wire and does the same.
I have 2 boxes 1 v+ and 1 TiVo ,well the ones that work anyway lmao.
VM will sort out all the connections. The internet runs through the same connection that supplies TV signal. You can plug the TiVO box to a superhub via ethernet for extra functions.

In a single word, no. The connection is required for TV Anywhere service I believe.
Longer answer, it could but then VM couldn't sell you a Internet connection.
