I know in WNY you can pull 5 public IPs out of the modems.

The modem Boot file controls how many IP's you can pull, 5 in Buffalo is a hold over from the Adelphia days.

In theory, I probably could pull 4 without raising to much dust from TWC.

Why would they raise a stink since they are the ones that set the configuration for the modem?

In my modem diag screens, it shows "Known CPE MAC Address (Max 2)" and then lists my routers MAC address as one. Is this indicative of another public IP being available to me if I wanted it?

Prior to the upgrade I was able to pull two IP addresses at a time from TW, and generally used them both. Since my speed bump though, I've only been able to get one IP address at a time.

I'm not using the SBG as a gateway, and the modem status indicates that it's not pulling an address for itself. When I tried to use the old modem even after a weekend of sitting unmolested it wouldn't allow my firewall to pull an address.

This has impacted my ability to run two networks at home, but also we suffer from fickle power, and if it goes out for more than a few minutes, it's an hour before our router gets a new address.

Anyone know what might be causing this, and hopefully have a way around it?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Double-the-speed-half-the-IP-addresses-27568117 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 17:58:23 EDT
