Just got into a new house, and Cox won't be coming for a few days.

Can you still just go into the box and pull the disrupter to get service? Have they found a new way to block access? I'd throw it back in before they show up.

If you know what you are doing, sure. I have heard that Cox will be going all digital this year also. This means you will have to have a box. So for the people getting free cable from just hooking up the coaxial cable, will be without after the switch.

Tampering with utilities is a federal offense.

They will either force you to let them run lines to those rooms or will have a wireless type of system.

Correct. You will need to have a box for the other rooms. Now, this is what I have been told by a few people.
