Neither Be or Sky *force* you to use their CPE and only their CPE though. In Sky's case the modem is separate and you can use whatever router you want (granted, it's difficult to find a compatible one) and in Be's case, you can use whatever modem you want as well. In fact many users have succeeded in replacing the modem on Sky Fibre with their own as well.

Tivo boxes have built in cable modems, so in a way, Samsung already make cable modems for VM. They're just integrated into a TV box instead of a router.
