Each NTL card has to be authenticated (married) to the designated installed box by NTL, otherwise, no good.

Haha how amusing, you realise you've just dealt in stolen good technically? The boxes are NTL's property and should be returned to NTL when the user's account has been terminated, they cannot be used by anybody else.

Can't you use the RF lead from the main (legal) box, via splitter system and feed the upstairs tv?

How about one of these, but check your box type first:
