Actually, I probably could have saved myself the whole thing as well - I figured out pretty quick which direction things were going, I just HOPED SBC had somehow seen the light & would take the situation in stride. Foolishly I told them exactly what we wanted and expected that they would get it.

They did not.

What I dread is the day I'm not in, the DSL fails, and SBC refuses to acknowledge that they may be at fault because something on our side is non-standard and therefore frightens them. Like they did to you. After all, I was dealing with a "network" person from SBC that couldn't understand how multiple computers could use 1 DSL connection. I'm not a network person (in that I have NO formal training in it - I've just read the HOWTOs) and I understand it.

Hi Ed,
I guess I could have saved you from this -- the same thing happened to me, sort of. See my condensed version of upgrading from DHCP addressing to permanent addressing below.
