Nope, the following link & watch the wrap on this one :-( Probably best to copy/paste the link into your browser ;-) http://www.dslreports.com/faq/bellsouth/2.51%20Static%20IP%20FastAccess% 20Info20Info The following info in particular; Q: What Static IP packages does BellSouth offer? How do I set it up? (#8415) A: BellSouth FastAccess offers a single static IP for residential service. BellSouth also offers single static or multi-static IPs for business class customers. Residential Single Static IP Service * Customers with residential service may get a single static IP address. It is an additional $14.95 per month on the Lite and Ultra packages. A single static IP is optionally included (dynamic IP is standard) at no extra charge on the Extreme package. * The WAN IP is not a true static IP. It is dynamically assigned through your username via PPP, however it is always the same IP. * Single static requires no special setup or configuration to the modem, router, or NIC. Use the standard FAQs and procedures to configure the equipment exactly the same way you would a dynamic PPP connection. * Customers must configure their routers, modems, or NICs to automatically obtain the IP address. Do not try to hard code your WAN IP! * The static IP is based on your username and the login format is username@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Kill me now.
