Question:

Multiple cable boxes in one house?

I have cox digital cable. They gave me one cable box to go with the service, but i have another one from an old house. Would i be able to use both boxes at the same time on different tvs to get my premium channels? (or even digital cable channelsanything beyond the basic or extended)

Answer:

Most likely not unless you are paying for both boxes. The cable boxes are individually coded and Cox has control of the activation/authentication codes. However, you can always plug it in and see if it works. Maybe by some luck, the box may still be active. If not, call Cox and have them activate the second box. Hope this helps!
