Hi,

I would like to know it is possible to have access to a computer on a shared
connection via a ADSL modem router. FYI no work group has been set.

I am sharing my connection with a neighbour and I want to make sure they
can't have access to my pc, that's all.

All I can say is -- Don't!

You are responsible for their actions.

Try to be more specific. I need to share because the cost is high.

Pay for it or don't access the Internet. There are too many risks sharing Internet with
non-family members.

I think what he's trying to say is that if anyone is doing anything illegal
over the connection, the one responsible for the connection may be held
responsible.

I don't really see how the "family member" qualifier changes anything of
that -- if it is about that. IMO the risk is about the same for family
members and non-family members (at least without knowing details about the
specific persons involved).

I appreciate your explanation.

But my question was not about what the neighbour can do on the internet. It
was whether they could access my own computer.

Actually you find this as a clause on most if not all ISP ToS/AUP's.

I have done this.
I had a router at each house and set internal network set for two
different ranges.
