And sure, I used a password to the router/modem, but it's written on the outside of the router. And I'm a resident of this house.
How does you being a resident or him having been careless with the passwords matter? You cite factor after factor that have nothing to do with the situation. No one accused you of breaking and entering or of beating him to get him to give up the password. Only that using someone else's equipment and getting the password off of it isn't legal.
Also, the argument you make here, implying that you are a resident and have rights to the router, undermines your previous excuses about how you are not liable to pay for separate service. You feel like you are owed access to the Verizon device. Yet you say you don't pay for service.
By his logic if I had an office in one of those shared office spaces like we have here (http://www.techpad.org/) then I would automatically be authorized to gain access to their router and all their networking infrastructure. because I would pay rent their and they would give me a network drop off of their fiber connection.

And now I am off to pack. Heading to Hutchinson, Kansas at 8am with the owner.
I'll be converting a couple servers from VMWare to Hyper-V, upgrading the drives, converting from RAID5 to RAID10, increasing the RAM, replacing the router, installing a Unifi AC, and probably something else I forgot.
The owner will be doing some software training with the users on our accounting package and keeping everyone away from me.

I'm liking Hyper-V more and more. I just wish they'd make a tool (the third party ones are bad that I've tried) to remotely control it easily without using domain credentials.

amen to that..
This one will be in an all windows 8.1 domain environment, so not really hard to remotely manage.

That is, I will have remote access via ScreenConnect to any device on the network to be able to manage the Hyper-V instance.

Well, all I have to say is whatever.
If you'd just admit what is going on and accept the risks, people wouldn't push the point. But attempting to justify things that can't be justified is where the problem comes from. Did you screw someone by changing the router? No, not at all. Does it make any actual difference? No. Could you spend ten years in jail for it? Absolutely. Those are the facts. Trying to justify that what you did is legal in the US, especially in NY where there is no state-level intervention to a judge's personal opinion, is where you keep running into these problems.
Did your landlord sell you Verizon service? Yes. Can he do that legally? No. Does it make sense that Verizon charges each user like that? Well it was good enough for him to agree to it, so yes, it is. Why do you try to justify his actions? It's not like you've made a case, you've only restated several times that he's a thief just with a lot of words. Why not just accept that he's stealing and reselling something?
When you say "whatever", it sounds like you knew you were wrong and want to attempt to walk away without admitting you were wrong. You are attempting to avoid admitting the obvious.

I know you aren't doing it to be rude, but I think you aren't stopping to think about the "voice" that you use when typing. Everyone's writing style has a voice. You need to be as conscious of it as possible.
