    How is my neighbor accessing my modem (internet /phone) and listening in on phone calls? When my phone rings (very low) I hear him run downstairs and creep around outside my door, then he matches me step for step wherever I go in my house. I decided to reset my modem, and whenever I do I hear him scramble, run near my door, I hear soft clicking noises, then he goes out back on the porch and does something. I noticed that the circuit box (I assume) door for his unit is open when it is normally closed. What is he doing, how, and what can I do to stop it. ISP is no help at all.

    I think you are being paranoid.

    Sounds like a troll to me.

    Assuming for a moment this is a real request, is your interenet service provided through the phone line (DSL)? I ask this because mine is, and I discovered totally by accident that it came standard with a totally unsecured, automatically enabled "guest" account. Anybody close enough to my house could access my wireless network. I don't think, however, that this would enable somebody to listen to my phone calls.
