I.P address

Post by chipvideo »

I am confused about this talk of how the address makes a difference with your speed connection. I am getting ATTBI installed on wed. Is there anything I should ask them to do for me. Thanks for any response. This board Rocks!!!!

The IP address which you receive does not matter.

not the address itself but the type of address makes a difference, meaning static or dynamic.
Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity.
