They aren't exactly cheap though. For me to get a static IP from my current ISP would cost me $300+ a MONTH.
Then by god get a new ISP.
Not always possible I guess.
FWIW, 8 static IPs on my DSL service cost $100 a YEAR!
Damn
It is worth shopping around.
Not always possible. Only have the cable company, Co-op telco (Baby Bell called Ben Lomand Rural Telephone Co-Op (although they now also operate in the city (to compete with Citizens/Frontier I imagine))), and Frontier (a Citizens Communications Company). From BLomand, a DSL line (from which I can run servers from my box all I want, although I'm not sure if they assign dynamic or static IP's) is $30 more a month then what we (me and my parents) are currently playing (as soon as I find some work though we ARE switching), and Frontier is at LEAST 460/month more AND we'd have to switch to their telephone service (sorry, EXTREMELY happy with BLomand which is cheaper all around then Frontier).
