STATIC
I.P. ADDRESS - FAQ's
Just as each building on a street has an address, so does
each computer on the Internet. This "address scheme" allows
you to distinguish between every computer on the Internet.
For example, you may have come across a number in association
with Internet lingo such as "198.69.121.3"--or something
similar. This is an Internet Protocol (IP) address.

Additional Notes of Importance
When
I Dial Up to Stealth Access via Modem, do I have an IP Address?
Yes,
You do. However, what is important to note here is that,
unless you have purchased what's called a "Static IP Address,"
your IP address is DIFFERENT every time you call one of
our access numbers. Your IP address is assigned to you when
you connect for that session, and then will change the next
time you connect to your ISP.
What
Will a Static IP Address do for me?
The
only reason you would need a Static IP Address is if you
wish to turn your computer into some sort of server, or
if you want the convenience of knowing that every time you
connect to your ISP, you're going to use the same IP address.
A Static IP Address would allow you to give out one address
to everyone, and they could then use that address to connect
to your server while you were connected to your ISP. Other
examples of uses include using a Static IP Address in conjunction
with an email server, a WWW server, playing a multiuser
game with others on the Internet, or having a permanent
address for using your WebCam.
I'm
Interested! What are the fees and what is included?
Since
there are many more users than there are Static IP Addresses
available, there an initial Setup Fee of $50 and an additional
$12 per month for this service. No Annual Fee!
Additional
Notes of Importance:
A
static IP Address will work only while connected to our
ISP. it cannot be used with any other provider or account.
Your IP address will only be working when you connect to
the specific account for which you purchase the IP Address.
A Static IP Address will NOT change your email address.
