Second Internet Connection
Does Telus need to run a secondary fiber line to provide 2 separate networks at a given address?
Generally they would run separate lines for each account. To my knowledge, they will not set up multiple accounts at a single residence.
If YOU want two separate networks (and IP addresses) you can place a switch between the ONT and routers, and obtain two network IP.
There isn't a technical reason blocking 2 internet connections at the same location. I suspect there is an accounting reason however. There can only be 1 account for each address because address is one of the business keys for uniqueness to ensure accounts are not crossed. So if you have 2 addresses (i.e. Unit 1 and Unit 2) at the same location then you should be able to get 2 accounts.
