A permanent connection does not mean a fixed IP address. It can still change. My DSL connection has been up online for 21 days but the IP address was changed 4 hours ago.

I put a rather large file on my webserver once for a friend to download. When i checked the server logs it explained why she kept losing the connection with my server, her "snap" IP changed 4 times in one attempt which was supposed to have been a simple overnight download.
