@h121589, there is more than one kind of broadband. ADSL with a PPPoE for example used the phone line.

u cant get disconnected
I beg to differ, any type of internet can be disconnected. Try not paying your bill and see what happens.

My first BB ISP used to be dynamic ip, it would reset at around midnight. everyday, it would disconnect and require you to log in again and assign a new ip. Suffice to say I switched it.

well i have dsl here in germany and my provider disconnects me every 24 hours but i got my settings set so that it reconnects automatically ( its still a bummer using emule though as emule gets better the longer its on so when i disconnect i have to get my place in the line again :( )
