Just a reminder, check your Terms of Service before you do this.  Many
ISPs specify that residential service is for a single residence only
and/or prohibit connection sharing unless you purchase a business
connectivity package.  Whether or not you'll get caught is a risk you'll
have to consider (and an exercise left to the reader), but at least make
sure you go in with your eyes open.

Oh, and welcome!
