As I understand the situation you have a coax cable from Virgin which then goes into a signal booster box (this must be mains powered by its own plug and plugged into a mains socket). From this two coax cables MUST come out, one for the cable modem/superhub ( depending on what you have and one for the Tivo. There is no way you should need to have your computer on unless its feeding power to the booster(which doesnt make sense).

Is this correct or are you confusing the cable modem with the computer?
