Best Answer

The cable box reference could mean a couple of things. Most commonly, a `cable box' is what's referred to as a `set top box' which usually sits on a shelf or on top of your TV. It's usually smaller than a VCR, which is able to 'see' the commands from your handheld remote control ( it uses infrared light) as also will have a display to tell you what channel number you're viewing. The 'other' cable box could be the junction box to which the cable from the company is attached to the wiring in your home. That's usually outside where the cable feed is located, if the company even uses 'em. Generally, it's just a double ended connector assembly with a way to attach a ground wire to your house's electrical ground or a grounding rod for lightning protection.

Your freeview box should connect to the TV Ariel on the top of your house. The Sky + cables connect to the Sky dish on the side of your house and will not work with your freeview box. If you have Sky there is nothing on freeview that you can not already get on Sky (even if you do not have a sky card).

How can the cable company tell if you are stealing cable service?

AnswerThe trained cable TV installer from the cable company checks at the outside box, where it comes into your house or apartment building. They open the dome, panel, or box and visually check if the coax cable that feeds internet/televison signals in to a dwelling is physically connected to your house, and if so if you are paying for the service.Even though the cable may be connected to your house, there might be a filter or blocker inline with the cable, either filtering out TV if you only pay for Internet or blocking the signal completely.They can also use special equipment to see if you are thwarting the service.Selvolhttp://mugfind.com
