their WAN address changes.
My dynamic IP used to be fairly static, now every time I reboot the
router I get a different /16 if not /8. If you still have a somewhat
fixed dynamic IP it probably means your ISP hasn't upgraded your
neighborhood yet. (ISPs are generally moving to encapsulated packets
shipped around over private address space and/or IPv6 rather than using
a traditional routed subnet for IPv4 leaf nodes.)
