Yesterday i plugged my old modem into my TV cable at the same time as having my new modem online.

I was stunned to find that both of the modems are working and I have two 20Meg lines!!!

Why is this? Do i need to phone virgin and tell that they have forgotten to de-authorize it or does it take a while for them to de-register the old one?

Thanks
Well ringing up is down to you as that modem should be inactive and unable to receive any signal.

But you would probably hit STM a lot quicker
