Actually, if you read the Terms & Conditions at the link John posted,
it is worded in a way that indicates that Mom can logon the computer
using username "family", and that later on Dad can logon using
username "family" as well.. that everyone in the household doesn't need
an individual username to use the internet. It doesn't say that Dad can
be on one computer, and networked to Mom's computer, so that they're
both on the connection with two computers. No, nuh-uh, no way.
Networking is NOT supported on Residential FastAccess - if you call
Tech Support, they'll ask you to take a machine off the network so they
can troubleshoot it. You'll also find that you'll usually be asked to
remove any network bindings (netBeui, IPX/SPX) that aren't used in
conjunction with Residential (read: single-user, not on a LAN)
accounts. If you wanna run a LAN, at home or whatever, you must have a
Small Business account.

Trust me. :)
