My neighbor from behind me wants me to use a coaxial cable splitter to split the cables and then install a second router (the second router is his he already owns it) so that I guess he can share my internet connection. Apparently the people who lived in my apartment before let him do this.
My concern is I stream videos a lot because I got rid of my TV service and pretty much use a Chromecast and my internet connection to watch any/all TV. and I usually have the TV on as background noise while I'm going throughout my day. I know at night my neighbors place becomes a bit of a hangout and that they stream videos sometimes too.
I know if he had my password
and was hooked up to my internet that way, it would cause serious lag if we were both streaming at the same time. However, does him having his own router negate that?? Will him having his own router not cause any streaming lag for me or does that not matter??
Maybe because he has his own router he's not even all my internet connection?? I don't know a lot about this stuff!
Thanks for your help. I hope I made my question clear!
