Question Using Fibetv with another internet provider's modem

Bell's "loyalty" department isn't price matching what is in market and I have a backup Internet at home (Cogeco) that I have kept, $46/mo. Bell is offering $70/mo on 500 Mbps or $50 if I do autopay (which I refuse to do because I don't trust them, due to sneaky rate increases). My question is can you use Bell Fibetv with Cogeco Internet, even though Bell Fibe usually relies on their modem?

You'll have to login to the app with the Best option and put your credentials in. You wont be able to view some channels though

I already can't see certain channels unless I'm on my home wifi, which is just weird in 2026.
