Also the point about "will this slow down your connection" is dubious. If you are on an over utilised segment there is no guarentee that the people "lodging" on your conenction will be also on the same segment.[COLOR="Silver"]

[/COLOR]Out of interest, is there a sensible solution where you might want to opt in and use the new service but still want to retain your (better) router and all the features that come with it?
I'm not sure I completely understand the highlighted sentence but I know what you mean (I think).

A "lodger" MUST be on the same segment as you simply because it has to go back to the same line card via the same optics as your private traffic.
