[Gllug] Telewest T & C

[Chris Bell]

Hello,

   I have been asked by someone with an Apple Mac connected via Telewest 1G
cable whether two computers can be connected to the same feed. I gather that
the connection and setup was done by Telewest. The person is completely
non-technical, but has been told by Telewest that they would need a complete
duplicate installation and fee. The only paperwork they have is a form which
lists the MAC address of the cable termination box and the MAC address of a
NIC. I was considering installing a Linux firewall running masquerading and
proxy services for as many computers as they wish to connect, so I looked at
the Telewest/BlueYonder web site, but did not find any useful information on
their terms and conditions. Does anyone have any more information? Thanks.
