Daughter is hooking up the splitter and cable i sent - she says she

installed a box that uses a remote that they need in the living rioom
- well duh, of course it's going to be the same channel if you are
picking up the signal at that point. i don't know what tv they have in
the living room - does the presense of the box mean it's not cable
ready or is this something comcast requires of all customer?
So the real question... do cable companies still get PO'd if you split
the signal to other TVs without paying a per TV fee? Will it work to
put the splitter behind the box? I have no idea what TV she has - but
assuming it's cable ready, will she need a box with it too, or only if
she wants certain channels?
I'm fairly sure she will get channels below 100 if it's cable-ready. OTOH,
they don't charge much for the 2nd box.
