Of course, by "static", does the ISP mean addresses permanently assigned to the customer, rather than just not likely to change? Those are 2 different things. As I mentioned, my address, though dhcp, is virtually static. A business user would like have a permanent address that will never change. I'd like to know what happens when he resolves the unstable ADSL modem issue.
Yes, virtually static would suffice for most people. We would have to use the equivalent to dyndns if we wanted to, say, give some one a link on our computers to a file or photo or whatever. Which means an extra step (an intermediary) anytime we want any IoT service. Most people, with our current Ipv4 connections, get a new IP the instant there is a glitch in the connection. Be it the wind moving the copper cables or the router being unplugged. This is not what was supposed to be internet when it was invented. Everyone was supposed to have a fixed IP, so that we could connect with anyone we sished for whatever reason we wanted. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
