Just to make sure I understand. In your case as described, you are
dedicating the modem to that user with the fixed IP, is that right ? The
presumption is that the customer is a full time connection customer.

I had a caller one time call in asking for a dedicated ip , with the
intention to NOT be a full time connection, but just a dial-in connection.
This would still not be workable... right ?
