I'm not sure if it's relevant, but in the last 10 days, my IP keeps changing. I'm using an update client for dyndns and from it's logfile I see that the address changes 2-3 times a day while it used to be stable for weeks. My modem is Alcatel (pro) with autodial. (Obviously using it's own routing s/w). It doesn't affect my internet usage. Just letting you know.
