Is PPPoE account usable (roaming) everywhere?
Just wonder if pppoe account can be used if I travel to other countries
at which there's also an adsl line connection. For example, if my relatives at oversea have an adsl connection, can I still use my own pppoe account at his place instead of using his account. I ask this because I found that I could use my own pppoe account to logon at my friend's place (in the same city), but he's using another isp that is different from my isp. Thanks for any idea.
