Unused ADSL account

[cj1]

I am not using aan accapped account and want a family member in another city use it. How do I go about doing this.

You may want to correct your post above, because it is unclear whether it is an uncapped or capped account that you are referring to.

Usually capped accounts allow up to 4 simultaneous connections, where as uncapped accounts allow only 1.

You can simply give you ADSL account's details to your other family member. I'm running 1 WebAfrica account on 2 separate ADSL lines without any issues.
The prerequisites are that your other family member has to have an active ADSL line + that your ADSL account has to allow 2 or more concurrent connections, UNLESS you're not even dialing that ISP account from your ADSL modem any more.

Pada, thank you for your response.

Please accept my apologies for the vageness in the original post. It is an uncapped account and I am not using it at the moment with the possibility of not using it in the next 3 months.

Then you can simply remove/disable that ISP account details on your ADSL modem and let your family member use it.

Usually ISPs lock your uncapped account to the first telephone number it was used on. You might have to check with your ISP that no such lock is in place or add the other number onto the white list.

IS uncapped accounts allow 2 concurrent connections
Mweb (uncapped) and most others only allow 1
