The reason i ask is because I live in an apartment block and there are 6 flats within the block. Theres an old gentlemen living downstairs who cancelled his services over a year ago. Today he knocks on my door asking about my virginmedia remote and what type I have. Then I say what you decided to go back to virgin. He says that he has a chipped box and got a mate to put it in. I go downstairs and true enough he has a fully working box with all channels. Im confused about where he is getting his bandwidth from and whether hes stealing from my line.

If his line is not working then how is the chipped box being supplied with content.
