Thanks for the explanation; I can now track my IP address (Edit: which changed when I toggled my modem yesterday), see what happens, and report back...eventually.
It seems, then, that with broadband routers that a (very?) significant percentage of users (Edit: probably) never turn off there may be almost no savings to an ISP as respects dedicated hardware allocations, because the pool of dynamic addresses must be almost as large as the pool of users.
The ISP's percentage in using dynamic addresses seems to be that users who require static addresses must request and pay for them.
