on how M1 actually authenticates. The only danger that it could pose to spoof my friends MAC is that some M1 websites let you change your e-mail password and some e-mail settings, and they used (last time I checked) to authenticate by the cable modem you were on.
You might also be able to DOS your friend. If mediaone denies access to two identical MAC's, then using your friends MAC might prevent him from connecting. Also, any reports of misuse coming in might get traced back to your friend and not to you. Just a thought. Brian
