Hi guys
I recently moved into an apartment complex. It's internet and TV package is include in the high-cost rent.
The apartment already has a modem built in the wall somewhere. I don't know where the modem is and if I'm sharing this modem with my neighbors.
All I know is that when I plug in my router into the Ethernet port in the wall, it works. no activation needed.
What security concerns should I have? What right should I have in terms knowing the physical location and specs of this router? how is it protected? Should be concerned that I am sharing the same IP address with the previous owner? Is building a modem into apartment walls legal?
thanks
Steven
