No, I did NOT use a router, they used internet when mine was switched off.

no they cant use ur ip now....but i think u should never share ur network with such people whose online habits u dont know about. next time u have lodgers at ur home tell them to get their own connection.........otherwise u may fall into serious trouble if they have illegal/offensive online habits.....
hope i helped.........
edit:
u cannot find out if they have done anything wrong or not....but if they have done and u are held under suspiscion tell the authority about the fact. the concerned authority would definitely check their computer hard drives and u dont have anything to worry. i mean if u have never done anything wrong u shouldnt worry... chances of such problems is really bleak.....but anyway u should never share ur connection with others.....just keep this in mind next time.... dont worry .... u really dont need to.....

No, they can't.
They would have to use your phone line and your computer to di that. EVeryone has their own unique ip address...
Don't worry.. everything is fine.

No, they can no longer use your IP address. It is yours alone and assigned to you as is your telephone number.
