Hmm, I have never heard about that, but as far as I expierenced with DHCP you would be assigned the same IP address.
Many providers force an IP change on each query (and an sometimes even more often) to differentiate between the dynamic 'home' accounts and the static 'business' accounts. Also to stop people trying to run servers.
eg. the one I'm with changes IP address every 30 minutes on their home accounts, and if you refresh the DHCP you always get a different one.
So the simplest approach is to give him a broadband router as option which can connect to PPPoE, Cable or Fix IP. This device gives him DHCP and the phone works.
Best to always assume DHCP. If they have a single fixed IP & no router they're probably going to require more support anyway, as you'll have to talk them through ICS setup (assuming they even have ethernet... it happens, believe me)
