Re: Network concerns and configuration draft 4


....
I run off of a qwest dsl setup that is feeding 4 computers
....
I would ask would a static ip really be able to allow
the machines to reach the outer network ?

John ....

In all honesty, I don't know as I haven't tried outside connections
through my qwest dsl with a static ip myself ....

I did fail to connect without a static ip using a dyn-dns setup
but am unsure if that failure was due to a lack of knowledge
and/or improper configuration/setup on my part ....

What I seem to remember from earlier Google-izing almost 2 years ago
is that other qwest users had a similar experience to mine and that
the solution of least resistance was a qwest static ip, although I
don't remember for sure if that was the only solution ....

A phone call to qwest technical support might provide
an answer ....
