Shirley, you jest... how else could an equipment identify itself when turned on... I pressed COX CABLE after PURCASING DYNAMIC BUSINESS CABLE connection, only to find that they identified your EQUIPMENT before assigning a DYNAMIC IP from the pool... but already HAD a PERMANENT EQUIPMENT IP. They gave me that one, and for the past year I have enjoyed STATIC IP of 68.99.64.11
Try it!

What??? I've never heard this. And I worked at ISP's for 5 years, and
worked WITH ISP's for 10. I'm not sure what you're thinking of, but
that certainly isn't the case at any ISP I've ever worked for, with
or dealt with. Maybe on a point to point, but residential DSL or cable? No.
