Whoa, careful!  This is very misleading.  First of all, I highly doubt they
run "sweeps" but if they did, they could NEVER see more than one MAC
address on a single IP.  This is not how NAT or TCP/IP works.  If you are
getting this info from a help desk rep (it has happened!) they are sadly
misinformed, or are purposefully spreading bad info.

Running multiple PPP sessions from one location is not supported but
currently they are not enforcing it.  If you attempt to run more than 3, it
will not allow you to connect, but your connection is NOT rendered
inoperative.  These policies could change in the future, however.
