The fixed name (as per my example above), should fix you up PROVIDING
you tell 'dyndns.org' the IP address for that name every time it
changes. 'dyndns.org' has scripts available (for free) to assist with
this, or you can do it manually every time you reset your modem. The
static IP is the simplest, but but also most costly. 'dyndns.org' charges
nothing.
