| 1385895 | 2014-10-08 04:09:00 | To run two computers in different cities on the same internet provider account? If it is would would I need? | ruup (1827) | ||
| 1385896 | 2014-10-08 04:28:00 | I don't see why not if your account is set up for sub-users or with a 'child account'. My wife and I can log in together on basically the same Orcon account, she has a child account tacked onto mine. Way back in the day when I ran Internet in a Box (Mosaic) and when IBM was an ISP and there was ibm.net, I used to login as a sub user on my son's Canadian account, they used to allow up to 6 sub users. After about 2 years or so IBM wised up to such things, and they no longer allowed such cross border arrangements :) |

| 1385897 | 2014-10-08 04:34:00 | As terry said, you would need a child or second account. DSL doesn't allow multi connections. Basically you should be able to get another account "tacked on" to the original, But you'll be paying an additional fee. | wainuitech (129) | ||
