A rental agreement *does* change the perspective a bit.  Your agreement should cover what is acceptable and what is not.  You need the network resources of the school make the connection.  I still think the honest and straightforward thing to do is ask the network administrator about it.  

Yes, there may be ways to set it up without the administrator's knowledge, and even ways to actively get around what security they may have in place.  Would you want the school or your parents to catch you at it?

The administrator could say "No problem!" and set it up for you; or they could say "that would be okay, but I don't know how to set it up" and you could find someone knowledgeable to step in and help them; or they could flatly refuse, in which case you accept the fact that life does not always give us everything we want when we want it.

Two outta three ain't bad, IMO.
