    I honestly wouldn't worry.

    If you're not downloading huge files or spending all your time on iPlayer, the likelihood of data charges being put on the guy's account are slim to none. And chances are they're on unlimited.

    I would describe it as, say, if someone could park above your house. Floating in your air. Yes, if you have a freehold they're technically trespassing, but does it really matter?

    The 'nicest' thing to do would be to share net costs. Why have a connection each if you don't need to? Sod the T&C's.
    Said Aristippus, “If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.”
    Said Diogenes, “Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.”[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica][/FONT]

    I wouldn't want someone to park above my house. What a strange concept.
