    The only way I can see that being possible is if you connected that computer directly to your broadnabd internet box (router/ONT/whatever that might be). You could buy a network switch so that you could have that computer connected directly, and then connect your router to one of the other ports of the network switch. But then, if your ISP sees that you're getting 2 IP addresses from them (via DHCP), then they might charge you extra. And I'm wondering if some ISPs also might not support that.
