Re: Moving Fee I just talked to someone to move our service today. I was also told that there would be a $29.95 fee added to our bill. Seems like it is standard for moves now. This is a residential account. |

 | Just cancel the service and sign up for a new one at the new address. That way you can get their new customer deals. Stupid isn't it. I have seen a ton of people do it that way. |

For most residential customers, that could work. He specified a biz account, and I would definitely not cancel and sign up again. Especially if there is services on a specific static and critical services needing to be run on that static. |

 kevinds join:2003-05-01 Calgary, AB kudos:1 1 edit | I wanted two sequencial static IPs, the only way I could get them, was to get a /29 block, because static IPs are /30. And yes, my last move, they moved my static IPs to my new CMTS.
Edit: Actually I just wanted two static IPs in the same subnet, so they would use the same gateway, direct-access wants two sequencial, that was a different project.

Kevin is correct, this is no longer true if you are assigned a static on a /29 or /30 subnet. It is portable to a new CMTS. If your subnet is around a /22 then you might want to ask about getting a /29 or /30. |
