OT: How secure is my connection

I live an appartment in a basement of a home. Now the landlord had cable outlets in the basement already. I called Rogers and got RHSI.

Ok can my landlord have a router/firewall box on their side of the house before my connection hits the outside to filter out the connection in anyway ? How secure is my transmissions through this connection ? Can he listen to my connection after it leaves my modem but the signal has to go through my landlord side of the house before it hits box outside ?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Care to explain what sort of adapter card is needed (maybe something along the lines of a TV Tuner) ? I mean how does one take a bare coaxial cable and start listening to the signals ?

a modem and a NIC in promiscous mode is enough if the modem is just a layer 1/2 device
