That is not correct. You can purchase a static IP option in many (most?) Verzion DSL areas. There is a price premium, but it is very much possible. You can even host services (mail, web, etc.) on the service. We have customers doing this right now, and they have been doing so for over a year. Note that their sales/support/customer-service is still absolutely horrible. Indeed, simply finding a salesdroid that knows they offer a static IP address option is difficult. And they still don't offer any real SLA. But if all you're after is a cheap static IP address, and Verizon DSL is your only feasible option, it is possible. -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do | | not represent the views or policy of any other person or organization. | | All information is provided without warranty of any kind. | _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
