It's most likely listed as a "no-no" in Comcast's terms of service you signed.
Exactly!
Think of it this way - since it's your connection, and unless you're really geeky and have just about every bell and whistle turned off to filter content and connections on your own router, what's keeping a neighbor from Bitorrenting movie and music files all day long?
Guess who gets the copyright infringement letter from their ISP?
I wouldn't do it.
Now, having said all that, does anybody know if Comcast has a level of service that let's you resell the connection to subscribers of some type? There's gotta be businesses out there that are using Comcast as their provider, and are doing something like this, no?
