pmat Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Hi,I was told by ATT that my DSL service provides me with a Dynamic IP address and I would have to pay double for a Static IP. Does this mean that unless I pay the money for the static ip, I'm doomed to always have sllllloooooooooooooow DL speeds? I've done the port-forward thing...and sometimes my speed is fantastic. Then other times...it crawls. I have a brand new D-link DSL-2640B modem/router. Any help is very much appreciated!Thanks.Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Fresh Apples and undead oranges.If you have a router, you need a static LAN ip...your internet ip can stay dynamic.They're not directly related.Even a "dynamic" internet ip usually only changes once every few weeks if you leave your modem off a lot.www.portforward.com has a ROUTERS section...check it for yours for how to configure uTorrent and your computer for a static LAN ip.
