Dave,

Here's Comcast@Home's position regarding home networking. I don't
know if @Home's other partners have the same policy.

Signing Up for Multiple Computer Access

If you have a network of computers in your home, you may
want to obtain one or more additional network addresses, so
that other computers on your network can access the @Home
service simultaneously.

Adding additional computers and setting up a home network is
recommended only for expert users. Adding additional
computers introduces significant complexity to your computer
environment, for which @Home does not provide either
telephone or email support.

To obtain an additional network address, you need to sign up
through the Member Services area within @Home. There is an
additional fee for each additional network address you request.
Note that if your account has multiple user names, only the
primary account holder can add a network address.

A question: can you (or other cable modem users) dynamically
connect more than one machine to your cable modem via an ethernet
hub? I can't seem to get a clear answer on this. This was a very
happy unexpected benefit of using US West as an ISP with my DSL
hookup.


Regards,
Nick
