The trouble is that Demon would probably have to write a special patch
to set up routeing for more than one IP address when you conect, so they
would probably be quite justified in charging you the hitch-up-a-network
rate.

If you can hangon for a while, either !TCPIP, or !TCPIP's functionality
will be able to run directly off sockets anyway, as now that FreeNet is
operational, I have started replacing the protocol stack in !TCPIP with
access to a Sockets module.
