If the connection is there plug it in. Although you will need to register the mac address of the modem with VM for it to work.

That said you are only allowed 1 modem in the house so if you have one elsewhere then this will not work after you register the other one.

In theory yes you could. But its a complicated process and cant be discussed on the forum.
