I've heard that some sattelite digital boxes like DreamBox (which runs on
Linux) can share their card over the Internet, when internet connection is
available (RJ45 LAN cable). Then the other DreamBox can use that shared card
to decrypt the premium channels. :-) So the cable operators started to offer
receivers very cheep. The boxes have custom firmware and will lock down if
not used on with that provider for 3 days. When the box plays a channel from
the provider, the timer gets reset and the box unlocked.

Reminds of me of using a hacked v3 card with the DirectTV boxes. Every week or sooner, someone's always publishing a new script to hack the card. I believe the v3 cards were 40 bit. They've changed the card since that time long ago to a 128bit encryption scheme, but I haven't kept up with that end of things so I don't know if they've been hacked (kind of doubt it).

You are right! That really makes sence! Finding other users' MACs is a very
hard task, I was able to accidently find 3 MACs a few months ago. Then I
learned that the static APR assignment must be on the both sides, otherwise
the GW still get's in the middle, but in one direction only. Packets with
others MACs almost never reach my computer. Even those from my room-mate's
PC that is connected to the same switch. Unless maby if I change mine's MAC
and IP to those of the GW and start heavy poisoning like them too. ;-)


Nah, we don't want to do that! :-)
