Re: Static IP = 3 times my current cost?

said by phirephoto See Profile :

I'm currently on the $17.95 a month plan for 1.5 mbps down with DHCP.

I'd like to have a static IP. Just one. I don't need 5.

DSL Extreme says the lowest priced plan with static IP's is $44.95 a month. Nearly 3 times the cost.

Is there something I'm missing? Anything?

Wow. I certainly hope that changes before my contract expires, especially if another provider offers a plan with a static IP for less. Hard to justify almost $30 a month for 1 (or 5) static IP's.
ISP's offer static ip's either in block/29 or 8 of them. Yes price is high, being that a lot of people got no need for static it cost a lot.

I think it's more because there is not a lot of competition in static IPs. (read: AT&T charges an even bigger fortune). I'm not a big fan, but Earthlink offers static IP as a $15 add-on, you might check into them.

at&t at least for business gives you static in group/29 dslextreme doesn't. Plus i actually got it cheaper then dslextreme on business account after all the discounts
