And to attempt to further clarify the point, we would be using your login
to your ISP for the ISP charges, and my Jetstream Line. I am
more than clear about that. Presuming the ISP authenticated us. The
interesting part is if the ISP is billing for its bandwidth will you
be charged as well.

If the ISP is being chargted for the bandwidth on jetstart I hope that
they get enough data to distinguish customer line types.
