| 443399 | 2006-04-03 07:43:00 | Hello members For a while I thought to have a static IP ,that's how it was looking in the setup of the D-Link 302G. Anyway it isn't and I found out that xtra wants $20.- more for that. Are there any other providers that are more modest on this charge? Would be nice to hear what's out there. :cool: Thanks Gion |

| 443400 | 2006-04-03 08:08:00 | Paradise provides static IP at no extra charge. I switched from Xtra 2 years ago because of that. |

| 443401 | 2006-04-03 08:35:00 | Pretty sure that Orcon does. | FoxyMX (5) | ||
| 443402 | 2006-04-03 08:40:00 | Pretty sure that Orcon does.That's how it was, whether you wanted it or not. However might be worth asking to see if it's still the same. | Greg (193) | ||
| 443403 | 2006-04-03 08:51:00 | Pretty sure that Orcon does. Orcon does. They used to provide good value for money AND a free static IP address. Now their plans are really only good value for money if you really need the static IP address. |

| 443405 | 2006-04-03 11:03:00 | How much? The more extreme Xtra plans include fixed IP if required at no extra charge. | PaulD (232) | ||
| 443406 | 2006-04-03 12:35:00 | Just use a free no-ip redirection (here (www.no-ip.com) ) and run the dynamic dns updater on the PC to keep the redirection current. Much easier to remember a word like myserver.no-ip.com than a bunch of numbers and if someone gets hold of your IP address reboot your router to refresh it. I've used a no-ip redirect for the past few years with no issues whatsoever, for things such as file access, vnc, game servers, voice servers, web cam streaming (when the dog was a pup it was our babysitting service - had all the family and friends logging in to take a look lol) etc |

| 443407 | 2006-04-03 13:31:00 | BUT you can't tunnel IPv6 packets using a dynamic DNS service. IP6 tunneling (e.g. tunnelbroker.net) requires a real IP address to work. | Erayd (23) | ||
| 443408 | 2006-04-03 18:38:00 | Jester Thanks that sounds very interesting. So with using a no-ip redirection it is (virtualy)the same situation like having a fixed IP? My querry comes from the use of P2P, as that needs a fixed IP? So would it work in my case? Have you got any experience in that? Gion |
