some of you might still remember what my brother and I are currently building. It is a duplex with a total of 4 residential units.
We are currently considering having just one internet connection for all the units (which will be rented out fully furnished and inclusive) and sharing it among them. From a technical standpoint, separating the connections properly is no problem at all (I will set up an appropriate router/firewall myself), but I am unsure about the legal aspects and how this can be arranged.
I’m not overly worried about it, but the “devil is in the details.”
For my customers, I usually recommend “legally safe” guest Wi-Fi solutions like “Freifunk routers.” However, these limit the bandwidth too much.
That’s why I would prefer, if possible, another solution here. Fortunately, the available bandwidth is 500 Mbit/s (gigabit fiber from Vodafone).
If this is allowed, I would order the connection as a business line since I need a fixed IPv4 address anyway and then share it with the other units.

Hello,
I wouldn’t recommend it.
We once had a shared house (a terraced house with 4 residents in Krefeld), and there was often conflict because one roommate was constantly downloading movies heavily.
This caused the internet speed for the others to drop, I don’t remember the exact connection speed.
The question is also: What happens if illegal content is downloaded?
Regards, Olli

Why not rent out warm accommodation without internet? I wouldn’t put myself through that hassle.By now, almost everyone has a mobile phone with data. If they really want more, they can order (and pay for) their own connection. Olli
