Thread 105726143

Why is getting a static ip address the same prices as a 4gb dual core cpu (that has a static ip)

Because they know the people who ACTUALLY need static IPs will pay for it.

My ISP doesn't even offer static IPs unless you pay for a business plan.

Thankfully they also don't use CGNAT, so even though it's not a static IP, it's at least not a CGNAT IP. And they tend to use "sticky" IPs, so even though it isn't static, it'll go months (or even a few years) without changing IP address.

So i should file a complaint to the crtc for price collusion?

>>105726324
Only if you want an employee at the crtc to have a good laugh at your expense.

Such a lowkey deepstate grift to make sure every sever is under their watchfull eye

Yeah but if your ISP decided to switch your IP address tomorrow for whatever reason, you would have no real way to stop them, or even a reason to complain. I highly doubt they advertise a guaranteed static IP even if you've been lucky enough to have maintained the same IP address for the last decade+.

Just buy the cheapest fucking vps you can find and stand up a openvpn tunnel.

uhm since when does a CPU have a ip address? do you have any fucking clue how CPU's work? what is this level of retardness?

Just get a block of IPv6 addresses. You do have an IPv6 capable ISP right?

>>105728204
My ISP has dual stack IPv4/v6, but with their multi-gig service it's only IPv4.
Supposedly, they'll be doing dualstack on the multi-gig stuff eventually as well, but not currently.

You know most Canadian ISPs never change your IP unless you allow your DHCP to lapse. It's a small business expense scam pricing. You don't really need this unless you need this in which case you'll pay it.

Canadians are fucking stupid leftover trash who have always paid more for less. Suck it up and pay for the boomers retirement.

Easy to switch no?

>>105726176
You can pay for a basic VPS plan and setup a wireguard tunnel with an edge proxy for http or proxy protocol, it is always cheaper than paying for a static IP.

>>105730208
Switch ISPs? Depends where you live.
Switch IP addresses? Depends entirely on the ISP in question and how they handle IP address allocation.

>>105730231
I'm grandfathered into my ISPs static IP, $4/month per IP address and I have 3 of them.

They no longer offer static IPs at all for residential customers.

Why do you want a static ip address chuddy? Do you want to be fingerprinted even easier, everything you do on the internet to be tracked with zero effort?
CGNAT may be gay but at least alphabet niggers still have to contact the ISP to get the logs of who is using which address and port for any specific time...

>>105726143 (OP)
I don't think my IP has ever changed unless I've deliberately spoofed my router's MAC address

>>105726723

Yeah, you can use a script that detects IP change to update whatever - and most services offer one like cloudflare.

So, dynamic IPs are no issue unless you are running commercial/enterprise shit. But then you'd have a tiered service with some level of SLA.

It is actually what they do, so if it changes I have legal grounds to complain

I like p2p networking and i dont think i should have to shell out thus much to deploy a stun/turn server from a raspberry pi

cant you use a vpn instead?

Having to be a telco for a number is humilation enough i shouldnt need to loop through 4 different big tech solutions to network two machines over tcp/ip
