OK,
I just got off the phone to NTL. They have confirmed that you can only have one modem per house - it's not an account thing, apparently its technical and is related to signal strength etc. - the girl I spoke to couldn't offer more information than that. The only option she could suggest (apart from networking or me switching to BT) was for me to keep the STB and use it as a modem only. This is perfectly reasonable except for the fact that I don't physically have the room for the STB
plus the SKY+ box which will arrive if/when I do go to Sky.
The only other option is for me to go to AOL - a thing which fills me with dread as I used to work for Computeq technical support and am very aware of their shortcomings (Computeq and AOL are one and the same thing now FYI).
Looks like I'm stuck unless anyone else has any bright ideas!
