| reply to Jerm Re: Charter Prices - How much do you pay? Negotiated prices?
said by Jerm :benc- Just for what it's worth, my IP address with Charter (despite being DHCP) hasn't changed in about a year, and with services like dyndns.org you sure are paying a premium and taking a bandwidth hit just for a static IP in my opinion. I appreciate your response.
But if you read the residential T.O.S., my understanding is that no server of any type is allowed.
And...I do run a very small scale E-mail/WWW/FTP server, mainly just for myself.
Even so, it's kind of scary. If you want to include things others are likely to do:
I'm guessing it even includes RDP, which to me doesn't really count but could be considered a server.
It's similar to something like PCAnywhere, but it's a feature that's free in XP Pro and Vista Business (and higher). It only allows one RDP user to log in at a time.
I suppose the T.O.S. could even include BitTorrent, though I personally don't run it.
If it weren't for that thing in the T.O.S., I would've given the Dyndns thing a shot. |
