I have not seen it where AOL randomly shunts a new IP to a client,
but then again I don't get to many AOL users on the websites which use

I can see where this would be true.

This is true, however most people with secondary connections are
(or should) be operated in a BGP fashion where two pipe's can route
the same IP subnet while maintaining two seperate routes to the
internet.
