Can I Get Caught?

a friend of mine rents a house out and with this is a broadband feature with ntl/virgin,my friend does not have a pc/laptop so he never uses it!,so what i did was swap my old cable modem box model 250 for his one!,my broadband in my house has been disconnected for months btw,once i got my friends modem and connected it to the coxial cable,everything is working fine!,getting back to my old modem!,the sync light and ready light come on solid,and i can get into the modem!,network access says allowed etc....,but when i go to the event log,it says dhcp renewal failed!,which means no web pages,i can ping sites etc in dos no problem strangley enough but no web pages!,the thing that is concerning me is whenever say my friend moves out and a new tennent wants to use bb!,will the mac code on my old modem still be registered to my house address???,kinda freakin out by using this modem tbh

should i just forget it and give my friend the modem back?
