    don't see why not. in theory he would need to register the mac address of the cable modem on a fake account and get a "friendly" in the office to send a hit to the cable modem. Don't know how long it would work for and their is the risk he may lose his job but it has to be possible on BY and NTL.
    Dunno about BT tho but probably could be done

    Not possible at all with ADSL for a few reasons:
    1. You need to get your line activated at the local exchange
    2. Your ISP user details need to be entered in to BT's RADIUS server database to enable you to be routed on to your ISP
    3. You need an account with an ISP that offers broadband access

    Yup

    I have a 1mbit Test modem (supplied by a m8 in ntl for free) and a 512 (uncapped to 1mbit) running on the same line

    Just need to put a splitter into the cable

    If ur running Windows XP it is possible to bridge the 2 conns and have 'em runing as one..
