Is this possible?
I have High-Speed cable service, currently using a Cisco 2100 modem. This is currently run into a D-Link DIR-615 Wireless Router which also allows four LAN connections via CAT-5 cable.
I have four or five web-capable PCs in the house, and my goal is to be able to access the Internet with each PC showing a unique public IP address (static is OK). Is this feasible? If so, is there some way for me do do this myself, or something the cable company would have to provide?
I read on another forum that this may be possible by contacting the cable company, and each additional IP addy might cost about $5/month. (And how does THAT work when the connection itself is dynamic?)
Forgive my gross ignorance about networking; that's why I'm here asking questions. Networks and their workings are fairly foreign to me.
