Re: Dynamic IP (and Draytek)

["domdevitto" <dom@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you're a hardened techie, and want to play with your DNS settings
(via web GUI though), AAISP are the way to go.

They are by far the most communicative, and technical-oriented ISP out
there.

You get two RIPE regestered IP blocks (one of 1 IP for the 'outside'),
so though you can't take the space from ISP to ISP, it is totally static.

They are about to introduce a GUI to change the details of your ADSL
Max settings - so you can choose if you want "highly reliable, but
slower", or "fast as possible, but may go offline every once in a
while".  They also have a GUI to tell you the TRUE BRAS-limited
downstream, as opposed to the DSLAM-negioted downstream, which is
usually a half meg more - but can be 2 meg more :-(
