Re: Chipped boxes

I'm sure ntl have all sorts of ways and means to reduce the effectiveness of chipped boxes. Perhaps the most obvious is that you have to be physically connected to ntl's cable system. I would have thought that chipping or otherwise that is bound to create some sort of signal into ntl's network that can be interrogated.

If your going to buy something that is chipped, surely a sky system would be a better option, as without the physical connection to a network, tracing the box must be much harder. All the chipped box would have to do is get round any changing scrambling codes.

Bottom line though using a chipped STB is theft, and cannot be condoned. Anyone caught using such a system deserves whatever they have coming to them.
