Most ISPs will not allow concurrent logins...yes their authentications servers will easily see you logged in multiple times. In a short period of time, you're account will most likely be shut off. When you activated DSL at that second location..you were given a PPPoE user/pass to use for that account/location. You'd want to use that one.
