I need to connect two new coax runs to my cable access box outside and I don't
feel like paying for a service call to do it. I'm not sure if openinig the
cable box on the side of your house is illegal or simply against cable
providers' policies, but either way there is a (hefty?) fee if you get busted
doing it. I DO NOT want to access any channels or services illegally, I simply
want to replace a failed run and add a new one.
Does anyone have any advice to offer? I've looked at my box and it has a blue
plastic padlock looking thing with a simple wire latch. They've written the
date on it with a Sharpie pen. Can I buy a matching one and write the same
date on it? Or am I playing with fire?
I don't want splitters in my attic. Every outlet in my house is a straight run.
