I have verizon DSL with dynamic IP and have used 3 different network cards with that service: DLink , built-on SIS, and built-on Davicom.
the thing is, no matter how many times I reconnect/disconnect (release/renew), I will always get the same IP address.
if i switch NICs, though, I will get a unique IP.. but that IP will always remain static.
ie:
DLink: x.x.x.6 no matter what
SiS: x.x.x.12 no matter what
Davicom: x.x.x.27 no matter what
It's no bothering me, but I would like to know the explanation for this.
