Hi guys quick question, my gf lives about 10 minutes from my
Home within the same town, I took my v+hd box to hers and all the channels still work including premium..

Can I use this as a solution? Are they likely to cut the box off as it's in a different property?

Or does it go by a local exchange and as were in the same town it will be "safe" to use??

Thanks in advance for help
 
If they were looking they could tell what you are doing. I wouldn't worry about it though. If you were really paranoid about it you could stop the box talking to them with a 50db reverse path noise blocker. You would no be able to use on demand but no one would know what you were doing.
 
I thought as long as you were on the same gateway, virjin would be none the wiser. (unless you hook up the ethernet for catchup etc) ???
 
Virmin boxes do the return path through the catv. No need for an Ethernet cable. They can tel which master cab your connected to I believe . Not that I think it matters. I don't think they would monitor it.
 
Thanks for the help! I do have one more question

I need to add a channel tomorrow so I was just going to turn that box off and unplug it, will they be able to tell where it's been?

I've got 2 other boxes in my own home with my main one being TiVo so I'm hoping they will just send the signal to them ready

Thanks again for your help
 
Just leave it on mate. As said if they are even bothered , they already know.
