If I have comcast digital cable box in my living room set up and I want to hookup cable in a downstair bedroom by just hooking up a coax cable directly into the cable jack (bypassing the box). What would happen? Would I get standard cable?

Yes, you should get basic cable. That is as long as the cable in your downstair is connected to the main line.

No. in case you have cable hookup, then you truly could have a cable modem that the cable is plugged into. From the cable modem, you run a cable (CAT 5 cable, the type with a connector that appears like a telephone connector at each and each end) from the cable modem to the pc community adapter card. You pc gets onto the community from this cable. A telephone line isn't in contact.

I think that should work. We have MediaCom and that worked for us. As long as your cable line to your house is from comcast you shouldn't have a problem.
Let me clarify; you should get the same cable as you do with your box, you just won't have the remote control.

Nothing bad will happen , just use a splitter and you will get the standard unscambled stations on your bedroom TV . Mostly local stations and stations like Lifetime ,USA and even ESPN . Let your set scan for them after you've hooked it up.
