They do not assign static ip's. The ip's will pretty much remain static, but they want to keep them unassigned just in case they have to administrate the numbers. I've had the same ip for a year... of course... this is Nashville and little changes very fast. But just thought I'd let you all know. The ip's aren't static, but within all estimations, they could be considered that until @home does something major. Later all, Ryan White Ps- Thanks sooo much for all the help. My AWE 64 works now, and tonight I am sure I'll have my internet going. 8' ))))))))))))))))) _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
