My local DSL provider does CGN. I switched to cable, but because it was faster, not because of the addressing. They would assign you a global static IP just by calling up and asking for it. When I left, I think they'd assigned 18 static addresses out of several thousand customers. Most consumer ISP customers don't run servers visible from outside, and don't care about CGN. Really. It's not because they're stupid, it's because it has no effect on their day to day usage. R's, John PS: End to end, is that a subchannel of Redtube?
