can ISP "technically" recognize that a customer is sharing his ADSL with others ??

Thanks.

if you mean using a router to share your ADSL connection then the answer is no

all packets that pass from your LAN to the public WAN (Via a router running SUA NAT) have a field in their header changed that says the destination address is your public one and not your private one, (basically what NAT'ting is)

therefore all packets appear to come from the same location and thus your ISP will be none the wiser

thanks

Thank you eyeball for the info

do you mind me asking why you're asking?

yeah,

does your ISP mind that more than one pc is using the connection?

i was asking because they are thinking about prevent line sharing

Thanks.
