Absolutely, unless the old cable was also being used on his TV which is what it sounded like since he said he had 2 TV boxes. There had to be a splitter there as well (into the splitter out to the TV & modem) which isn't quite as bad as the splitter at the dmarc which affect the entire house. Also, hopefully he has no ethernet connections at the router when/if he moves it or he would have to rewire those as well.
