A permanent IP # - that's a dedicated address on the Internet, but costs extra (?). What does your service agreement say? Colba's service agreement (not a contract) does not guarantee any level of service! The last time I spoke to vif.com (my current supplier), they spewed nonsense about how management didn't "buy enough IP #" from BellNexia". Oligopoly Я Us! I'm guessing some ISPs are optimizing their ration of either bandwidth or IP # or both and re-selling to VOIP providers. So their profit picture depends on disrupting service at any time! See the pitiful discussion at - [1]http://blogs.teksavvy.com/ about terrible service. I wouldn't be crying for help if I hadn't read this.
