You want to change ISP's, but keep IP's? Unless you have a "portable class C", such a thing is, well, highly unlikely, to say the least. Have you looked up your IP in ARIN, perhaps, and found out who owns that IP address (perhaps Aracnet/SpiritOne is leasing the address from somebody else)? -Ronabop _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
