Depends on the ISP's setup, too. @Home before they died thier undeserved death by collusion, used to have it so you could only get DHCP leases if you had your dhcp-hostname set right, but you could set yourself static (it was mostly there so tech support could save time with idiots), and blocked out DHCP from being served past the cable modem. Unfortunately, most cable ISPs I've heard about don't have networks as well designed as @Home used to be. -- Baloo
