| 544665 | 2007-04-27 02:49:00 | does anybody know if it possible to use the same broadband account in two locations. ie one at home and one at work to save setting up a second account at work - with all the phone line filters etc installed... thanks |

| 544672 | 2007-04-27 08:57:00 | just spoke with my provider (slingshot). they tell me that i can use my modem etc at another slingshot phone number, but not anither provider and NO the broadband account is linked to the phone number so it'll have to be a new account | globe (11482) | ||
| 544673 | 2007-04-29 10:01:00 | Correct. The ADSL is assigned to the line (number) and the line (number) is tied to the ISP. So if the line's ISP = your ISP then you can use your account on that line with your modem. | Cptn Hotshot (3904) | ||

And I'm off the main road (A couple a hundred metres) |
