Re: Static IP's from Sprint or Millenicom
DAVE: aside from hosting things (which I don't do), read my post above regarding MLB via internet, and you'll see why a static IP for a measly $3/mon (according to Jim_in_VA) is a bargain for me.
I think if you want to run a VPN you also need static addressing but don't hold me to that.

| I don't believe that Static IP is required for VPN. The new Cradlepoint MBR1100 offers:
"The high-performance MBR1100 has the capability to create and terminate IPSec VPN sessions. It provides up to five concurrent sessions, supporting transfer and tunnel modes and several Hash and Cipher algorithms. This securely encrypted protocol means your communications from one private network to another is secure from end-to-end."
No mention of any Static IP requirement.

I don't claim to understand the intricacies of it all, but we have sold ~50 of them and the customers have figured it out!

Thanks
I was thinking about hosting my website but with sprints slow speeds at times it wouldn't be a good idea. I can't depend on the connection here to be as Sprint ads say.
Anyway thanks for the reply and I will leave the static ip on the table for now.
