Re: Static IP addresses for Dial-up

Yes. Combine this with IP over Direct-TV, where the PC address must be synchronized between the out-bound telephone channel (semi-permanent) and the in-bound satellite channel (permanent). Also combine with IP mobility, which assumes that the mobile is keeping its IP address while roaming. Also combine with IP over CATv, where a PC at home has essentially the same requirement as a PC at work.

All in all, at least one address per computer is a very reasonable goal, one which we have zero reason to legislate away.

I agree with Christian completely Lixia
