Depending on how You connect to the internet, You might want to
read about the dynIP patch.

The thing is that on a dial-up connection, the very first packet that
You send out and that initiates the connection does not yet have the
dynamic IP address that Your ISP assigns to You in its sender field.
Therefore, You have to alter that very packet after You got Your IP
and re-send.

Cheers, Jack.
