Presumably the idea is that you would be sharing your broadband connection with your friend. That would be against the Ts & Cs of NTL's supply which is for a single dwelling only.

It is possible to bridge connections between two separate networks. Try looking on the linksys.com site. I'm sure I've seen some how to do its on there. Distance between the two properties will be a significant factor in performance. You want a good line of sight between the two network transmitter / receivers, and very little inthe way of building materials or other obstructions in the direct path. Even then performance might be quite poor.
