In order to have 2 static IP's provided by an ISP, the user would have 2 seperate internet accounts. This is not very common, and very costly.

As long as the network is connected with at least a switch, bandwidth will not be consumed by a direct IP in of a networked client. This may be different with a hub, as hubs broadcast network traffic to ALL comps on the network, not just the comp the packets were meant for.
