[wellylug] DynDNs

[Mark Foster]

No, Xtra charge (and it's fairly expensive) for Static IP on DSL.

The TCL Cable point was a fair one.  Most providers tag a small charge for
Static IP service, and for the below DynDNS is adequate.

My Netgear has built in DynDNS (which I don't use - a friend does, and says
it's fine, though).

Most ISP's will give a static ISP for $10 per month.

I believe Xtra does this for free if you ask for it and your not on the
basic home user plan.  Have you asked them about the actual cost?

:D
