Gold Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 5764 Registered: Oct-07 | its good for people who don't have iks reciever and wanna watch something, all u need is internet connection from same cable company that also provide internet connection c&p Drawing on old-school methods to splice cable TV lines for unauthorized use, hackers say they can buy a splitter at the local electronics store and easily run an additional line from the cable modem (news - web sites) line for the computer into the television. Without a set-top box, the result is free, basic, analog cable; with an illegal converter or set-top, hackers say they have access to premium channels such as HBO and Showtime. "I only get (basic) cable. I don't subscribe; it just comes to my house along with the cable modem signal," said Noah, who wished to keep his last name anonymous. He saves roughly $40 a month on cable but spends about $42 a month on Internet access. "Lots of people do this if all you want is analog cable," he said. "All cable services are run through the same line; they can't just cut power to analog cable and still give you a cable modem." Cable operators have battled this form of piracy for years, but it's taking on new urgency in the race to build high-speed Internet service. Broadband providers are struggling with costs, with AT&T just last week instituting a price increase for cable modem customers. } |

Ask the girl at Radio Shack. Don't let her tell you that they do not have them. They keep them in the back because they are illegal. |

Silver Member Username: Pannu16Post Number: 883 Registered: May-06 | It is BS... Plymouth is right.. they block it.. i have tried it before and only got CBC and omni2 ... There is a filter which only Rogers has access too.. if u r lucky u might get it coz tech forgot to put a filter but usually rogers dont make mistakes like that... |

Yes The number of channels you will receive will depend on the type of Internet Service you have. With a standard Internet Service you will receive a standard TV Service around (60) channels. All you need is a 2-way splitter 5-900 MHz. Try Radio Shack, Home Depot , Wal-mart, K-mart or a Hardware store, they all sale this splitter less then $5.00 watch TV.  |

Platinum Member Username: PlymouthCanada Post Number: 10070 Registered: Jan-08 | Doreen I don't think this Descrambler work on Cable with a filter. C/P from there: http://www.cabledescrambler.us/cableFAQ2.htm 20. What kinds of channel filtering are there? There are two types of filtering - positive and negative. Positive filtering is when a cable company injects cable noise or interference into a particular channel at the head end. This interference will cause this channel to appear snowy, may have flashing lines, and usually has beeping type noises. Sometimes positive filtered channels are almost viewable, sometimes they are very bad and not viewable at all. The solution to positive filtering is to get inline filters that screw into the cable. These filters remove the interference and clean the channel up so that it is viewable . Each channel that is being positively filtered requires a filter ( this means one filter per channel is required ). Negative filtering is when a cable company broadcast a certain movie channel unscrambled ( just like all the basic channels ). If a customer does not order this movie channel, then a filter is put inline outside at the pole or in the lock descrambler. This filter completely blocks out the channel from reaching the home. The only solution for negative filtering is to subscribe to channel (s) that are being filtered (or trapped out) and then the filter (s) will be removed-thus allowing the signal for these channels to reach the house. Negative filtered channels are usually completely snow -sometimes a very faint picture can be seen. Here in Quebec city, it is a Negative filter  |

Gold Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 5776 Registered: Oct-07 | don't even try descrambler i bought one when i didn't know about fta, after 2 months i got a bill of $ 200 for ppv's i ordered, its waste of money , |
|
Bronze Member Username: Babe_ruthlessPost Number: 61 Registered: Dec-08 | Yes,as posted Rogers cable puts a filter on the line to block out channels.You would have to remove the filter at the cable box to get any channels.I had a friend that did this and it only lasted 6 months because Rogers returned and put on another filter(routine check up I guess).He just received a reminder at his door that he needed to contact Rogers to resume his cable viewing(No accussation of it being tampered with).That's the low down folks. |

Gold Member Username: Donnie1973Post Number: 3191 Registered: May-06 | first u cant get cable tv with an at&t dsl internet connection. no ethernet to rg6 adaptor will help u. lol its not stealing cable. When u pay fo a cable internet connection, u are also paying for basic cable, it is just a hidden cost. 42 bucks a month is an awful lot for just internet. |

New member Username: ArtfuldodgerPost Number: 1 Registered: Jul-09 | Can a cable company detect if a filter has been tampered with? |
|
Silver Member Username: BernardmiPost Number: 540 Registered: Dec-07 | Yes they regularly roam in neighbourhoods and visually look at the splitter boxes in the posts. If you removed a trap and their sheet says you are not a subscriber, you are stealing telecommunications and go to jail. Some operators affix colored tags to cables to signal who gets what. Do not move tags around. You are dead otherwise !!!! You need a special tool to unscrew the filter. If neighbours see you playing around in a ladder near cables, they will call either the Police, the Cable Company, Electric Utilities or the Fire Department thinking you are about to commit suicide electrocuting yourself. |

Silver Member Username: BernardmiPost Number: 541 Registered: Dec-07 | I meant "and visually look at the splitter boxes up the poles" |
|
Gold Member Username: RiconissanPost Number: 1680 Registered: Feb-09 | Thank God you didn't mean that you "visually look up splitters at poles". |

Silver Member Username: BernardmiPost Number: 542 Registered: Dec-07 | LOL Amazing the fact that once posted, even if you re-read your text many times before posting, you notice so many errors.... If it is not your syntax, then the semantics is wrong and if both are correct, then someone find a double meaning or an overseen cultural note.... Well, that is the price to pay for not being a born English speaking person. |

Gold Member Username: Donnie1973Post Number: 3194 Registered: May-06 | u can unscrew them with pliers, its not a big deal. the thing u need to do is find a cable tv installer thats off work, get him to come to ur house and connect ur cable wire to the splitter on thepole. he would do this for a 1 time fee of around 50 bucks and he would put a green/ yellow tag on the wire at the pole saying it is legit. this is all they look fr when "roaming" the neighborhoods. or u can climb the pole urself and connect it. u wouldnt have the green tag, but it would last a long time if u live i a rural area. |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 15549 Registered: Jun-06 | What you are suggesting is downright illegal and probably criminal. You are talking about the actual wiring illigelly! |

Gold Member Username: Donnie1973Post Number: 3198 Registered: May-06 | oh, I never said it wasnt! Its as legal as PTA tho... |
|
Gold Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 5801 Registered: Oct-07 | agree with danten, definately lots of installer who lost their jobs from cable provider's, know all about that stuff and will do the job properly.. |
|
New member Username: ArtfuldodgerPost Number: 2 Registered: Jul-09 | Let me add something to my question. Does the filter (trap) send a pulse to the cable company to indicate what signal is getting through and what's not? |
|
Gold Member Username: Donnie1973Post Number: 3199 Registered: May-06 | no |
|
Silver Member Username: BernardmiPost Number: 547 Registered: Dec-07 | The trap is passive. No signal is sent back upstream. Cable companies have and will sue you if you get caught for theft of telecommunications. That is a $15,000 fine. Cable companies have done it frequently in the past. Think FTA (pure FTA) if you want to watch free TV for now. And rabbit ears (or an external decent Yagi antenna). You can't get caught using those. And all ON-THE-AIR stations will be broadcasting in digital mode (not necessarily HDTV) by 2011. A bright future lies ahead for rabbit ears and Yagi antenna manufacturers. |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 15554 Registered: Jun-06 | Yes. The penalties for obvious theft are well defined and the decisions are also well defined and repeated all the time. Long drawn out cases are all related to ill-defined areas of theft and issues bordering on theft and in conflict with basic rights. |
